Ciliated=Ovary/Oviduct- lining

Identification: Column-shaped cells.

Structure/Function: column structure makes them the strongest simple tissue, but the slowest at diffusion because it has more space to move substances through.

Identification: Cube-shaped cells.

Structure/Function: the cube-shaped cells make them good at secretion and absorption; it is between simple squamous and simple columnar in structure.

Identification: Flattened cells.

Structure/Function: The flattened cells make for rapid diffusion, but since they're so thin, they are very weak.

Identification: Multiple layers of flattened cells.

Structure/Function: The many layers make it the strongest of all tissues; they divide easily and quickly, and they have the ability to slough.

Identification: 2 layers of cube-shaped cells.

Structure/Function: protects underlying tissues while also allowing for some secretion and limited absorption of substances.

Identification: Column-shaped (columnar), looks layered but isn’t

Structure/Function: allows it to function as a protective barrier by secreting mucus and using cilia to trap and move foreign particles away.

Identification: multiple layers, apical cells are dome-shaped (relaxed) or flattened (stretched).

Structure/Function: The multiple layers allow it to stretch and change shape to accommodate, while providing a protective barrier against the harsh environment.
