Solution
Stratified ciliated columnar epithelium:
The surface cells of stratified ciliated epithelium are columnar and ciliated.
Parts of the vas deferens, the epididymis, and the respiratory passageways are lined with this epithelium.
The bladder's lining is transitional epithelium, and how it looks depends on whether the bladder is dilated or contracted.
A transition zone of stratified columnar epithelium lines the larynx, which is lined with pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium behind the vocal cords.
Final answer: The inner lining of the larynx is made up of stratified ciliated columnar epithelium.
