<h3>What is the advantage of psuedostratified epithelium? </h3>

The lungs are shielded from these irritants by the existence of pseudostratified columnar epithelium in the upper respiratory tract, which is made up of the nose, trachea, and bronchi. To capture particles and stop them from moving farther down the respiratory passages, the epithelium's goblet cells release mucus.

The psuedostratified has too many layers and it is made up of columnar epithelial tissue.

Click and drag each label to the accurately identify the components of the visceral baroreflex
QveST [7]

The right answers are on the attached image.


Baroreflex is a reflex triggered when a baroreceptor is stimulated. In the human body, baroreceptors are found in the carotid sinuses and the sinus of the aorta. These receptors are stimulated during changes in blood pressure. Baroreceptors are sensitive to the stretching of blood vessels.

As blood pressure rises, baroreceptors transmit nerve impulses to the vasomotor center of the medulla oblongata, which is then inhibited. This results in vasodilatation of the blood vessels to reduce blood pressure.
