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.
Epithelial tissue that can stretch or is subjected to stress would have many tight junctions?
transitional epithelium
Which epithelium is also called Pavement epithelium?
Squamous epithelium is also called as the pavement epithelium.
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.
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.

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.
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.

What type of epithelium lines ductus deferens?
Transitional Epithelium; it is continuous with that of the kidney pelvis superiorly and the bladder medially. Transistional epithelium is also able to stretch and later recoil when there is room to. (Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 8th edition, pg. 986)

An epithelium built to withstand friction is what?
B. stratified squamous
What is the connection between the shape and the function of epithelium tissue?
thin wall - rapid diffusion small gaps - allow diffusion and actv tspt goblet cells in lung epithelium - secrete mucus to trap bacteria ciliated epithelium - waft mucus out of the lungs squamous - stretch and recoil around a blood vessel there are about another 10 types of specialised epithelium tissues and cells in the human body
