Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Simple cuboidal epithelium: This type of epithelium is typically found in glandular (secreting) tissue and kidney tubules.
Detailed explanation-2: -Simple cuboidal epithelium is found on the surface of ovaries, the lining of nephrons, the walls of the renal tubules, parts of the eye and thyroid, and in salivary glands. On these surfaces, the cells perform secretion and filtration.
Detailed explanation-3: -Simple cuboidal epithelial tissue is specialized for diffusion and absorption. The reason our kidneys function the way they do is because of the movement of water and salts in and out of the kidney tubules. This single-layered tissue aids in the diffusion of these substances.
