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 counting the release of oxygen bubbles a valid way to measure the rate of photosynthesis ​
Otrada [13]

Measuring photosynthesis via the production of oxygen. Oxygen can be measured by counting bubbles evolved from pondweed, or by using the Audus apparatus to measure the amount of gas evolved over a period of time.The emerging bubbles are either simply counted or they are recorded using light barriers, which is very difficult because of their small size and often varying ascent rate. The gas bubbles generated during photosynthesis by aquatic plants produce distinctive sound pulses when leaving the plants.

Approximately 55%of an adult female body weight is water if a woman body contains 38 kg of water what is the woman's total weigh
bezimeni [28]

Answer: 69kg

Explanation:

Let the total weight of the woman be represented by x. Based on the information given, we can derive an equation which will be:

55% of x = 38kg

55/100 × x = 38kg

0.55 × x = 38kg

0.55x = 38kg

Divide through by 0.55

x = 38kg/0.55

x = 69.09099

x = 69kg

Therefore, the woman's total weight is 69kg.

Anettt [7]

The correct answer is the amygdala.  

The fear response begins in the brain and scatters all through the body to make amendments for the flight reaction or best defense. The response of fear initiates in the part of the brain known as the amygdala. It is the almond-shaped arrangement of nuclei in the temporal lobe of the brain and is involved in determining the emotional silence of the stimuli.  

For example, the amygdala gets stimulated whenever one witnesses a human face with an emotion. This response is more noticeable with fear and anger. A threat sign, like the sight of a predator, initiates a fear reaction in the amygdala that stimulates the regions taking part in preparation for motor activities taking part in flight or fight.

How do plants create lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids all from photosynthesis?
AlladinOne [14]
Plants create  lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids all from photosynthesis by several reactions. Photosynthesis is the process in plants where it produces everything that the plant need to survive such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins and minerals. From the products of photosynthesis and the minerals in the plants, the plant is able to synthesize such things.
