squamous, cuboidal, and columnar

[thegreat267]

I am having a hard distinguishing between these types of epithelial tissues and where they are located. Can someone explain this?

Thanks

Cuboidal is on glands and stuff and squamous is on skin and stuff. I believe there are columnars on the throat with mucus. That's all I know about them

lol do we need to know this for the DAT? I haven't seen a single question on something like this.

One question in destroyer about it I think but not specific

I know I came across a question in Destroyer 2013 regarding a picture and asking what type of tissue/cell the specific image was, and the answer was epithelia tissue. I honestly that's enough for this type of an exam. Knowing that cuboidal, columnar, etc. are part of epithelial is I guess important, but knowing each specifically, is a bit excessive.

Honestly I can't tell what is excessive anymore. When one question can be 3 points off a section, every little thing matters.

Hey, I was just wondering, where did you see this info? I'm just wondering b/c I don't see it in Feralis or Cliff's
