In areas subject to stretching such as urinary bladder.
Urinary bladder
Linning of the urinary bladder
What else can I help you with?
What transition in epithelium exists at the cardio esophageal junction?
nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium of the esophagus transitions to simple columnar epithelium of the stomach
What type of epithelium has dome shaped cell on the apical surface?
Transitional epithelium has dome-shaped cells on its apical surface. It is a specialized type of epithelium found in organs that stretch, like the urinary bladder, and can transition between squamous and cuboidal shapes as the organ expands and contracts.
Epithelium that stretches and relaxes?
Transitional Epithelium permits expansion and recoil after stretching without damage. It's found in the urinary bladder, renal pelvis, and ureters. It's called transitional because the appearance of the epithelium changes as stretching occurs.
Where can a carcinoma be found?
epithelium or epithelial cells
What epithelium type is found in serous membranes?
simple squamus epithelium
What epithelium is found in blood vessels?
Simple squamous epithelium
What is epithelium?
Epithelium is a layer of animal tissue. It can be found in the lining of certain organs and glands in the body.
What is the function of cuboidal epithelium?
This type of epithelium is frequently found in glands, and the pancreas, where its function is secretion.
What is plastic epithelium?
Transitional epithelium (also known as urothelium) is a type of tissue consisting of multiple layers of epithelial cells which can contract and expand. These cells, part of the epithelium, are found in the urinary bladder, in the ureters, and in the superior urethraand gland ducts of the prostate.
Where is simple epithelium found in the body?
Simple epithelium is found lining surfaces where exchange of materials occur, such as the lining of blood vessels (endothelium), the alveoli of the lungs (alveolar epithelium), and the small intestine (simple columnar epithelium). It is also present in areas involved in absorption and secretion, like kidney tubules and the lining of the small intestine.
What type epithelium tissue stretches?
Transitional epithelium cells can stretch. They can be found in organs that have the ability to stretch such as the bladder.
Are cells of the esophageal epithelium ciliated?
No, cells of the esophageal epithelium are not ciliated. The esophagus is lined with stratified squamous epithelium, which lacks cilia. Cilia are more commonly found in respiratory epithelium to help move mucus and particles.
