4. Epithelial tissue can be classified by?
_______________________________________________________________________________________
5. What is the function of glandular epithelium?
_______________________________________________________________________________________
6. Draw the following basic Epithelial Tissue shapes:
Squamous Cuboidal Columnar
Directions: Observe the photomicrographs of the different types of epithelial tissues.
Notice that the connective and epithelial tissues stain differently. Examine how the nuclei of each cell are
stained darker than the cytoplasm of the cell. Locate the basement membrane.
Notice both the apical and basal layers of each type of tissue.

c. If there is more than 1 layer; is each layer the same shape?
Explain.
