What type of cell lines the bladder?
stratified squamous and transitional epithelium
What is the type of epithelial tissues that contains cells that can change shape as the tissue streches?
Transitional epithelium cells can stretch. They can be found in organs that have the ability to stretch such as the bladder.
How does transitional epithelium differs structurally from other stratified squamous epithelium?
Transitional epithelium contains cells that are flattened and cells that are cuboidal; hence the name "transitional". Stratified squamous is different from transitional epithelium since the shape of the individual cell is more hexagonal and contains flattened cells. Transitional epithelium have the capacity to stretch and flatten.
How does transitional epithelium structure differ from stratified squamous epithelia?
Transitional epithelium contains cells that are flattened and cells that are cuboidal; hence the name "transitional". Stratified squamous is different from transitional epithelium since the shape of the individual cell is more hexagonal and contains flattened cells. Transitional epithelium have the capacity to stretch and flatten.
What part of the urinary system contains transitional epithelium?
the ureter has three layers, transitional epithelium is one of them. the bladder also has transitional epithelium. In the urethra near the bladder it becomes transitional epithelium also. For those of you at Paris jr college, you can fine the on page 986-987 the 8th edition for A & P.

An epithelium built to stretch is?

Which epithelial tissue has cells that can change shape when stretched versus contracted?
Transitional Epithelium
What is the structure of transitional epithelium?
The structure of transitional epithelium is that it has several layers of epithelial cells that can contract and stretch. It is has a cube-like shape when not stretched and appears flat when stretched.
What types of tissue forms the walls of ureter?
