Can be keratinized or nonkeratinized.
Facilitates the movement of the viscera.
Forms the ciliated epithelium of the upper respiratory tract.
Forms the mesothelium that covers the ovaries.
Is characterized by the presence of “umbrella cells” that protect against hypertonic fluids.
Is often interspersed with secretory or ciliated cells.
Is often specialized for absorption and features apical microvilli.
Is restricted to large excretory ducts of sweat and salivary glands.
Lines the upper part of the urethra, ureter, and the urinary bladder.
Lines wet cavities (e.g., mouth, esophagus, and vagina).
Occurs in the conjunctiva lining of the eyelids.
Often contains many mitochondria to support to support a high level of active transport across the epithelium.
