protection against abrasion, pathogens, and chemical attack, located on surface of
skin, lining of mouth, throat, esophagus, rectum, anus and vagina pseudostratified
ciliated columnar epithelium - answer-falsely stratified, call cells touch basement
membrane, nulcei seen at various levels, protection, secretion, move mucus with
cilia, located in the lining of nasal cavity, trachea, and bronchi; portions of male
reproductive tract transitional epithelium - answer-looks like stratified squamos
epithelium, but has the ability to change shape, in relaxed state, apical cells are
rounded or plump shape, permits expansion and recoil after stretching, located in
urinary bladder, ureters; renal pelvis
