How Does Cuboidal Epithelium Differ from Other Epithelial Types?
Cuboidal epithelium differs from other epithelial types in several ways:
Squamous Epithelium: Squamous cells are flat and thin, unlike the cube-shaped cuboidal cells. Columnar Epithelium: Columnar cells are taller than they are wide, in contrast to the equally proportioned cuboidal cells. Transitional Epithelium: Found in the urinary bladder, transitional epithelium can stretch and change shape, unlike the fixed shape of cuboidal cells.
