Allows passage of materials by DIFFUSION/FILTRATION in sites where protection is not important, secretes lubricating substances in serosae

Function of simple squamous epithelium

Secretion and absorption

Function of simple cuboidal epithelium

Absorption; secretion of mucus, enzymes and other substances; ciliated type propels mucus (or reproductive cells by ciliary action.)

Function of simple columnar epithelium

Propulsion of mucus or reproductive cells

Function of ciliated simple columnar epithelium

Protects underlying tissues in areas subject to abrasion

Function of stratified squamous epithelium

Protection

Function of stratified cuboidal epithelium

Protection and secretion

Function of stratified columnar epithelium

Stretches readily and permits disentension of urinary organ by contained urine. Protection against the caustic effects of urine by not allowing passage through membrane.

Function of transitional epithelium
