The process whose specific outcome is the progression of an epithelium over time, from its formation to the mature structure. An epithelium is a tissue that covers the internal or external surfaces of an anatomical structure. The process by which the anatomical structures of a follicular epithelium are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. Any cellular process that results in the specification, formation or maintenance of a polarized follicular epithelial sheet. Formation of a single follicular epithelium around the germ-line derived cells of a cyst. The process by which the anatomical structures of a tissue are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The process by which the anatomical structures of epithelia are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. An epithelium consists of closely packed cells arranged in one or more layers, that covers the outer surfaces of the body or lines any internal cavity or tube.
