Description

Epithelial cells cover the inside and outside of almost all of the body's surfaces. Squamous epithelial cells are flattened and barely visible by light microscopy. They fit closely together in tissues; providing a smooth, low-friction surface over which fluids can move easily. Squamous epithelia are found lining surfaces such as the alveolar epithelium in the lungs. Specialized squamous epithelia also form the lining of cavities such as the blood vessels (endothelium) and pericardium (mesothelium) and the major cavities found within the body.
