SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM – 1
This epithelium consist of a single layer of flat, tile-like cells.
The cells are very thin and for this reason it is often difficult to observe their cytoplasm in cross-sections of the epithelium.
The nuclei of the cells of this type of epithelium are generally elongated or elliptical.
The epithelial layer is separated from the connective tissue by a basement lamina.
