I believe it's depending on the particular organ and where that organ is located and the degree of work or friction that organ would have to undergo e.g. anua, rectum, vagina, oral cavity etc.

What is a part that carries out a particular job in a plant or an animal?
Answer: mitochondria
What type of epithelium tissue would you expect to find covering a surface subject to physical forces?
stratified epithelium
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?
Simple cuboidal
Where in an amphibian would ciliated epithelium cells be found?
In an amphibian, ciliated epithelium cells would be found in the body surface. The main functions include absorption, secretion and protection among others.
What multilayered epithelium with cuboidal basal cells and flat cells at its surface would be classified as?
Multiple cell layers whose apical cells are flattened are stratified squamous. These are epithelial cells arranged in layers upon a basal membrane.

Answer: mitochondria
What is the function of an epithelium that is smooth on its free surface compared to an epithelium with a folded free surface made up of micro-villi?
Secretion is one of epithelium's major functions. However, if there are microvilli, they are used for absorption. Regular epithelium would be in our skin, and epithelium with microvilli would be in the digestive tract.
What type of epithelium tissue would you expect to find covering a surface subject to physical forces?
stratified epithelium

Transitional epithelium stretches and recoils would be found in lines of the ureters, urinary bladder, as well as part of the urethra.
What would happen if the anterior ramus of the spinal nerve is damaged or transected?
The end organ or muscle innervated by that particular spinal nerve component would atrophy.
Features would be typical of these epithelial cells?
Epithelial cells are generally divided into two main groups:Simple and StratifiedSimple epithelium is of a single cell thickness and every cell is in contiguous contact with the basal lamina by hemi desmosomes (cell anchors). These can be further subdivided into other groups.Stratified epithelium is multilayered arranged into 'strata' and is found in the body where the cells in contact with the lumen are lost frequently due to mechanical or chemical stressers (e.g small intestine or skin cells). The cells are held together by intermediate filaments and desmosomes. These can be further subdivised into other groups.The features of the groups vary widely depending on the sub-specialisation e.g. stratified squamous keratinised epithelium makes up skin cells and has very different features to simple cuboidal epithelium such as that found in the testicle.
What epithelium tissue would be found lining the ducts that drain sweat glands?
Simple cuboidal
What kind of epithelial tissue is characterized by being only one cell layer thick?
Simple For example, simple cuboidal epithelium A layered version would be Stratified cuboidal epithelium
