Answer:

The correct answer is - True

Explanation:

A modified type of stratified epithelium is transitional epithelium. Transitional epithelium tissue provides the ability to stretch to the structure in which they are present.

Transitional epithelium layer is found in the urinary bladder and ureters in the body so due to transitional epethilium these structures get the ability to stretch.

If the urinary bladder is filled with urine then the cell of the transitional epithelium becomes flat like stratified squamous epethilium and when the bladder is empty it gets to relax and cells convert into cuboidal shape.

So depending on the functional state of the bladder, transitional epithelium may resemble stratified squamous or stratified cuboidal epithelium. Therefore the correct answer is true.

The answer is true.

Transitional epithelium of the urinary bladder (urothelium) is a type of stratified (multilayered) epithelium. Layers of epithelial cells in this tissue can contract and expand in order to adapt to the degree of distension needed.

Layer of basal cells (basal layer) consists of cuboidal or columnar cells. Superficial layer, on the other hand, can vary depending on the degree of distension: so, when the bladder is not stretched, the cells are cuboid, but when the bladder is filled with urine, stretched, the cells are squamous.

Why is it important for signal transduction systems to trigger a rapid response within a cell and be able to be shut down quickl
lorasvet [3.4K]

-All signal transduction cascades are shut down immediately so as to prevent the cell from mounting a response.

-Cells are unable to respond quickly to hormones, and therefore signal transduction cascades always occur over a long time.

-Cells have to be able to function alone, because they are unable to work together in a coordinated fashion.

-Cells often have to respond very quickly to changes in their internal and external environments.

The Eocene period exists in Earth’s history around 34 MYA. What could a scientist do to determine what era the Eocene period bel
Sloan [31]

Answer:

To understand what era the Eocene period belongs to on the geologic time scale, the scientist would have to examine the Cenozoic era to understand all information related to it.

Explanation:

First, let's start with an explanation of terms.

  • MYA simply means Millions of Years Ago
  • Time Scale is a sequence or organisation of events which is used as a yardstick to measure the duration of history or how long the earth has existed.
  • Eocene Period refers to the geological epoch that lasted from about fifty-six to approximately forty MYA. It is also defined as the second epoch of the Paleogene Period within the modern Cenozoic Era.  

Given the definition of the Eocene Period, to understand what era an Eocene period belongs to, the person must carefully study the Cenozoic era.

Cheers!

Animals have tactile sensors located at different parts of their bodies. For example, cats have sensitivity in their _____.
Kipish [7]
<span>C is the correct answer. Cats’ whiskers are touch receptors which help them sense things in the world through touch (tactile sensors). Therefore, trimming cats’ whiskers can be dangerous for the cat as it removes some of their senses until the whiskers grow back.</span>
