Epithelium is one of the four basic types of animal tissues.
Epithelial tissues line the outer surfaces of organs and blood vessels throughout the body, as well as the inner surfaces of cavities in many internal organs.

Cuboidal epithelium is composed of a single layer of cube-like cells. This is commonly found in the ducts of glands and tubular nephrons of the kidneys.

Columnar epithelium is composed of a single layer of tall and slender cells. They are found lining the stomach and intestine.

Simple squamous epithelium is made of a single thin layer of flattened cells with irregular boundaries. They are found in the walls of blood vessels and air sacs of lungs.
