Question

The rupture of urinary bladder is prevented by

• A. pseudo stratified epithelium
• B. stratified columnar epithelium
• C. stratified cuboidal epithelium
• D. transitional epithelium

Answer 1

The correct option is D transitional epithelium

Transitional epithelium is a layer of cells that forms the mucosal lining of your ureters, a portion of your urethra, and your urinary bladder. The function of transitional epithelium cells is to protect the urinary system against the toxic effects of urine. Additionally, transitional epithelium cells stretch to accommodate the volume of the bladder and other organs when they fill with liquid.
