Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pseudostratified columnar epithelium appears to have two or three layers of cells due to the varying heights of the cells, but all of the cells are in contact with the basement membrane. Stratified columnar and stratified cuboidal epithelia have more than one layer of cells and not all cells are in contact with the basement membrane, while transitional epithelium is stratified and capable of stretching, but the cells do not appear to be layered.
