true ribs
1-7
directly connected with the sternum at the sternocostal joints

false ribs
8-10
join the costal cartilages of upper ribs and attach indirectly by interchondral joints

floating ribs
11-12
not connected to the sternum or other ribs at all
attached to thoracic vertebrae (T11 and T12, respectively)

epithelial tissue
lines body surfaces and cavities
used for protection and absorption/secretion
classified by cell shape and number of cell layers
simple squamous epithelium
found in:
lining of lung alveoli, blood vessels (endothelium), and serous membranes (mesothelium)

simple cuboidal epithelium
found in:
kidney tubules (proximal/distal), surface of the ovary, secretory ducts of exocrine glands, and thyroid follicles

simple columnar epithelium
found in gastrointestinal tract (ex)

pseudostratified columnar epithelium
found in respiratory tract (ex)

stratified squamous epithelium
found in human skin (ex)

stratified cuboidal epithelium
found in salivary glands (ex)

stratified columnar epithelium
found in the conjuctiva (lining) of the eyelids (ex)

transitional epithelium
found in bladder and urinary system (ex)

simple squamous epithelium
single layer of thin, flat, scale-like cells
specialized for rapid diffusion, filtration, and reducing friction
structure allows for the efficient exchange of gases and nutrients
simple cuboidal epithelium
a single layer of cube-shaped cells with central nuclei
specialized for secretion, absorption, and protection
facilitate active transport and glandular secretion
simple columnar epithelium
a single layer of tall, narrow cells with oval nuclei located near the base
specializes in absorption, secretion of mucus/enzymes, and protection
non-ciliated types use microvilli to increase surface area for nutrient uptake
ciliated types move substances along the reproductive and respiratory tracts
pseudostratified columnar epithelium
stratified squamous epithelium
stratified cuboidal epithelium
stratified columnar epithelium
