Which epithelial tissue has cells that can change shape when stretched versus contracted?

Transitional epithelium is the epithelial tissue that has cells capable of changing shape when stretched (such as when the bladder is full) or contracted (when the bladder is empty). This type of epithelium allows for tissue expansion without losing its integrity.


What types of tissue forms the walls of ureter?

transitional epithelium


What tissues make up the bladder?

Pseudostratified. The bladder is the only organ with that type of tissue. The answer above is wrong! the urinary bladder is composed of transitional epithelium with an underlying connective tissue. the transitional epithelium allows the bladder t expand in order to fill it with urine and relax when urine is released.


Which connective tissue type is found in the walls of large blood vessels and in ligaments supporting transitional epithelia?

The connective tissue type found in the walls of large blood vessels and in ligaments supporting transitional epithelia is elastic connective tissue. This type of tissue is rich in elastin fibers, allowing it to provide flexibility and resilience, enabling blood vessels to stretch and recoil with blood flow. Additionally, it helps maintain the structural integrity of ligaments associated with transitional epithelium.


What type of tissue in the kidney tubules?

Transitional epithelium lines the lumen of the ureter. The transitional epithelium is a type of tissue that has multiple layers of epithelial cells that can contract and expand.

What is the type of epithelial tissues that contains cells that can change shape as the tissue streches?

Transitional epithelium is the type of epithelial tissue that contains cells that can change shape as the tissue stretches. This type of tissue is found in organs like the bladder, where it needs to accommodate changes in volume without tearing.


What type of epithelial tissue stretches?

What kind of epithelial tissue forms the lining of the bladder peculiar cells that have the ability to slide over each other?

Transitional epithelium forms the lining of the bladder. These cells are able to change shape, allowing the bladder to stretch as it fills with urine and then return to its original shape as the urine is voided.

What tissue forms the inner lining of the urinary bladder?

The inner lining of the urinary bladder is formed by transitional epithelium. This specialized type of epithelial tissue allows the bladder to stretch and expand to accommodate urine without tearing.
