Simple cuboidal epithelium

The ovary is covered by a simple cuboidal epithelium, composed of a single row of cube-shaped cells.  The nuclei of cuboidal cells are usually spherical, reflecting the equal height and width dimensions of these cells.  This is one of the few examples of a simple cuboidal epithelium that is not lining a tubular structure.  400x, 1000x
