| | Epithelium |
 | | Epithelium plays an important role in homeostasis of the body and in maintaining the physiological parameters of the internal environment different from those outside the body. |  | | Epithelium lines the surfaces of the body and is mainly located on the borders between the external and internal environments. |  | | Stratified squamous epithelium is found in the esophagus and epidermis of the skin. |

| | 2. Epithelium |
 | | Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium covers the entire outer surface of the body as the epidermis of skin, to prevent desiccation. |  | | You may worry about how to recognize transitional epithelium on a slide if it has the chameleon capability to change from squamous to columnar. |  | | Villi are covered by simple columnar epithelium, which is what we are interested in for this laboratory session |

| | stratepi |
 | | The name transitional comes from the ability of this epithelium to accommodate stretching in the urinary tract as fluid pressures vary. |  | | Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium is found only in the skin! |  | | As a "keratinized" or waterproofed component of the skin, stratified squamous epithelium provides substantial protection against friction, microbial invasion and dessication. |

 | | The genital ducts are tubular organs in which the lamina epithelialis varies from the stratified epithelium in the testes to a transitional epithelium in the urethra. |  | | With its associated connective tissue and muscle, the ductus epididymis coils to form the head, body and tail of the epididymis which then continues into the ductus deferens. |  | | This epithelium changes from transitional in the pelvic and penile urethra to stratified squamous epithelium at or before the opening of the urethra. |

 | | Transitional epithelium is a stratified epithelium characterized by the fact that the most apical cells are the roundest and largest in diameter. |  | | The mucosa of the renal pelvis, ureter and urinary bladder is lined by stratified epithelium, the urothelium or transitional epithelium (from the erroneous concept that this epithelium constitutes a transition between stratified squamous and columnar epithelia). |  | | Under the epithelium is a connective tissue layer and beneath that two layers of smooth muscle, inner longitudinal and outer circular. |
