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.

¡Hola! Bueno, dijiste Experimento de redi y pasteur. No hiciste una pregunta, así que te daré información. Todo comenzó en 1864 cuando Louis Pasteur llevó a cabo muchos experimentos peligrosos. Louis hizo esto para mostrar que los microbios también provenían de otros microorganismos. Cuando terminó sus experimentos resultó que los microorganismos tampoco provenían de generación espontánea.

How do mutations increase variety
Rzqust [24]
Genetic mutations increase variety by adding uniqueness to the world. Genetic mutations can come in all shapes and sizes based on the chromosomes in cells. Perhaps someone was born with one blue eye and one green eye, or perhaps they have hair a certain, unusual color. Genetic mutations add variety to the world by making sure everyone isn't the same!!

1. Parasites

2. herbivores

3. phagocytosis

4. Plant

5. oxygen (O2)

6. gills

7. open

8. urea

9. Single-loop circulatory systems have one direction of blood flow. Typically in fish, oxygen is absorbed in the gills, flows in blood to the body organs, and back to the heart, which pumps it directly back to the gills. In double-loop circulatory systems, the heart has multiples of each chamber. Part of the heart pumps blood to the lungs, to get oxygen. This blood flows back to a different chamber where it then gets pumped to the body. Once its oxygen has been used up, it goes back to the heart to be pumped all over again to the lungs.

10. Freshwater animals have lower water and higher salt concentrations than the environment in their cells. This means water constantly tries to diffuse into the animals, which can bloat them. They have special cell processes that remove extra water.
