What are the visible characteristics of ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium? Select all that apply. The nuclei are found in multiple planes, giving the illusion of multiple cell layers. Goblet cells are columnar cells that can be seen interspersed within the tissue. Each cell within the pseudostratified tissue can be clearly seen touching the basement membrane. Cilia project from the apical surface into the lumen. Each cell has a uniform height yet the nuclei fall in multiple different planes.

What are the TWO types of epithelial cell tissue shown below? Name TWO body locations where both would be present at the same time. What other type of epithelial tissue might also be present in this type of anatomical structure? (5 points) What type of epithelium is this? In what TWO ways is it specialized to perform its role? Name TWO locations in the body might you find it? (5 points) There are TWO types of ciliated epithelial tissue and they are shown below. What are each of them called? Name ONE location you might find each of them in. ONE of them is modified in size to allow it to fit in a second location. Which one is it and how does it appear there?

Match the name of epithelium with the description Column-shaped cells stacked on top of each other. Single layer of cube-shaped cells. Can change shape to allow expansion and stretching of organ. All column-like cells reach the basement membrane. Because the nuclei are at different areas in the cell it looks like the cells are stacked on each other. Flat cells that are stacked on top of each other. Cube-shaped cells stacked on top of each other. Single layer of column-shaped cells. Single layer of flat cells. 1. stratified squamous 2. simple squamous 3. simple columnar 4. stratified cuboidal 5. stratified columnar 6. simple cuboidal 7. pseudostratified columnar 8. transitional epithelium
