Question
Chapter 25, Problem 2TYC
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The functioning ability of the simple squamous epithelium as an inner lining of the urinary bladder.
Introduction:
A simple squamous epithelium has only one layer of cells which are attached to the basal lamina. Transitional epithelium is one of the types of stratified epithelium. This consists of multiple layers of cells that can contract and expand based on the amount of extension needed.
