What Epithelial tissue that's found in bladder lining?
The urinary bladder and ureters are lined with transitional epithelium. This tissue allows the bladder to stretch when full and contract when empty. It looks like cuboidal epithelium when the bladder is contracted, and like stratified epithelium when distended.
What is the Epithelium type with the shortest diffusion distance?
simple squamous epithelium
What is the difference between covering and lining epithelium from glandular epithelium?
glandular epithelium are specialized for secretion. lining epithelium simply line organs like the stomach.
