Generally, epithelial cells serve the function of protection of the inner layers of the structure they are on. The fact that these columbar epithelium and transitional epithelium cells have smooth walls and are dome shaped allows them to stretch. This stretching helps the bladder retain more urine than it would be able to if the epithelial cells were rigid.
They react to external factors like light, temperature etc
Answer:
8 chromosomes
Explanation:
Mitosis is the process whereby a cell divides into two identical copies of itself. This genetical identity emanates from the fact that the daughter cells possess the same kind and number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Hence, a nucleus that has eight (8) chromosomes during interphase will possess 8 chromosome in each daughter cell at the end of mitosis. Mitosis, which consists of stages, duplicate its DNA at the interphase stage but do not increase the chromosome number. Sister chromatids are formed for each chromosome, which separate during anaphase stage, and become individual chromosome in each daughter cell.
In this case, 8 chromosome are still formed at interphase but 16 sister chromatids. These chromatids separate equally into each daughter cell i.e 8 in each cell to become individual chromosomes.
