Where in the human body would you find pseudostratified columnar epithelium?

Pseudostratified columnar epithelium can be found in the respiratory tract, specifically in the lining of the trachea and bronchi.


What type of epithelium would you expect to find on a slide labeled primary bronchus?

Pseudostratified columnar ciliated epithelium with goblet cells.


Would heal faster stratified squamous or simple columnar epithelium?

Stratified squamous epithelium would heal faster compared to simple columnar epithelium because it consists of multiple layers of cells and has a greater capacity for replication and regeneration. This allows stratified squamous epithelium to replace damaged cells more quickly and promote faster healing.


Ciliated columnar epithelium destroyed by disease would cause a malfunction in which of the systems?

The respiratory system would be affected if ciliated columnar epithelium were destroyed by disease. This type of epithelium lines the respiratory tract and is responsible for moving mucus and foreign particles out of the airways. Damage to this tissue can impair the clearance of debris and increase the risk of respiratory infections.


Why is epithelium better suited for protecting the body's external surface than a mucosa consisting of a simple columnar epithelium would be?

The stratified squamous epithelium is composed of several layers. It is thick and well suited for its protective qualities and its surface cells are constantly being replaced. Simple columnar epithelium is just a single layer of closely packed cells. It lines the digestive tract from the stomach to the rectum. Therefore, the latter would not be best suited to protect your outside surface.


What would happen if the digestive tract was lined with stratifed squamous epithelium instad of simple columnar epithelium?

Through stratified squamous epithelium absorption will be very poor and person will die of starvation.Malabsorption could occur if the digestive tract were lined with stratified squamous epithelium instead of simple columnar eqithelium.


A surface covered with one layer of compactly arranged tall cells is called?

A surface covered with one layer of compactly arranged tall cells would be a layer of simple columnar epithelium. This is commonly found in the GI tract.


Epithelial cells are classified as?

Epithelial cells are classified based on their shape (squamous, cuboidal, columnar) and the number of cell layers (simple or stratified). They can also be categorized based on their function, such as ciliated columnar epithelium found in the respiratory tract for moving mucus.


Pseudo stratified ciliated columnar epithelium would be found?

right next to the libreezy...where you'll then go to a book shelf..get a book...then look for the right answer..cause i have no freakin clue yo. or if ur a nerd find it from ur brain stupid !@#holes


Where would you find Transitional epithelium stretches and recoils would be found in the?

Transitional epithelium stretches and recoils would be found in lines of the ureters, urinary bladder, as well as part of the urethra.


What epithelium tissue would be found lining the ducts that drain sweat glands?

Stratified cuboidal epithelium would be found lining the ducts that drain sweat glands. This type of epithelium provides protection and allows for secretion and absorption in these ducts.


The changes that occur as the bronchial tree gets smaller are what?

Support structures change: irregular plates of cartilage replace the cartilage rings, and by the time the bronchioles are reached, the tube walls no longer contain supportive cartilage. Epithelium type changes: the mucosal epithelium things as it changes from pseudostratified columnar to columnar and then to cuboidal in the terminal bronchioles. Mucus-producing cells and cilia are sparse in the bronchioles. For this reason, most airborn debris found at or below the level of the bronchioles must be removed by macrophages in the alveoli. Amount of smooth muscle increases: the relative amount of smooth muscle in the tube walls increases as the passageways become smaller. A complete layer of circular smooth muscle in the bronchioles and the lack of supporting cartilage (which would hinder construction) allows the bronchioles to provide substantial resistance to air passage.
