There are many types of epithelium throughout the body. Squamous epithelium can be found in [blank_start]capillaries[blank_end] (blood vessels) and [blank_start]alveoli[blank_end] of the lungs. Pseudostratified is unique in that it's only found in the [blank_start]trachea[blank_end]. Cuboidal can be found in the [blank_start]thyroid[blank_end] gland (releases calcitonin.) [blank_start]Columnar[blank_end] can be found in the uterus.
