How to Identify Cuboidal Epithelium Under a Microscope?
To identify cuboidal epithelial cells under a microscope:
Observe the shape: The cells should appear roughly square or cubical in shape. Check the nucleus: The nucleus is centrally located within the cell and is usually round. Look at the arrangement: These cells are often arranged in a single layer (simple cuboidal epithelium) but can also be found in multiple layers (stratified cuboidal epithelium).
