Select the correct epithelial tissue in the dropdown from their functional description. 1. Simple cuboidal epithelium can function in diffusion, filtration, secretion and protection based on location. 2. Stratified squamous epithelium can function in absorption, secretion and protection. 3. Pseudostratified columnar epithelium functions in protection of underlying layers. 4. Simple cuboidal epithelium functions in movement of a secretion (like mucus) across the apical surface. 5. (Click to select) accommodates distension and relaxation with changes in organ volume.

Identify each of the following epithelial tissues from their functional description: Epithelium can function in diffusion, filtration, secretion, and protection based on location. Pseudostratified columnar epithelium can function in absorption, secretion, and protection. Simple squamous epithelium functions in the protection of underlying layers. Transitional epithelium functions in the movement of a secretion (like mucus) across the apical surface of the tissue. Stratified squamous epithelium accommodates distension and relaxation with changes in organ volume. Simple cuboidal epithelium.

Text: Match each epithelial tissue in column B with its function listed in column A. Column A Column B (1) functions in diffusion and filtration (e) simple squamous epithelium (2) functions in protection (b) stratified epithelium (3) functions in secretion and absorption (b) simple columnar epithelium (4) changes shape as the tissue stretches (c) transitional epithelium (5) produces movement of material (d) ciliated epithelium
