Q

Pseudostratified columnar Epithelium is a single layer of column shaped cells laying on a basement membrane

A

Q

Three Types of muscular tissue in vertebrates

A

Skeletal (voluntary so we can control movement;attached to the bone)
Smooth (involuntary so we don’t control its contractions;lines our digestive tract)
