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.

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

B.) II only

Explanation:

More land is needed for plants than combined beef to produce 100 grams of protein because plants produces very low amount of protein as compared to beef that produces large amount of protein. Beef is made up of protein so when we eat it, it provides large amount of protein while on the other hand, plant body is made up of other molecules and very little amount of proteins.

Do predators really kill only old and sick prey
AlekseyPX
<span>redatory animal do target the older and/or weaker prey purely because they understand those animals would be easier to take down. But on the other hand, predators do not exclusively hunt older or sick prey. They usually just single one animal out and chase.      </span>
