Taller than wide

Question 15

What happens to Transitional epithelium for urinary bladder

Answer 15

Cuboidal (empty) to squamous shape (full bladder) then back to cuboidal again

Question 16

Pseudostratisfied

Answer 16

Tissue appears to be stratified, but all all cells are in basement membrane associated with cilia and goblet cells

Sterocilia

Answer 25

Elongated mocrovilli for secretion and absorption
