Detailed explanation-1: -Epithelial tissue is made up of epithelial cells. The cells can be different shapes and can be arranged in a single layer or multiple layers depending on where they are in your body and what kind of functions they have.
Detailed explanation-2: -Simple columnar epithelium lines the stomach and intestines. Pseudostratified columnar epithelium lines portions of the respiratory tract and some of the tubes of the male reproductive tract. Transitional epithelium can be distended or stretched. Glandular epithelium is specialized to produce and secrete substances.
Detailed explanation-3: -Columnar epithelia, which form the lining of the digestive tract, can be either simple or stratified. The cells are long and narrow. The nucleus is elongated and located on the basal side of the cell.
Detailed explanation-4: -Simple columnar epithelium – a single layer of column shaped cells. Similar to cuboidal, it can have protection, secretion, absorption and excretion functions owing to its thickness and organelle rich cytoplasm.
