Mucous membranes (pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelia) line most upper respiratory tract structures. Although these membranes filter the air by trapping pathogens in mucus, they are very delicate. Pieces of food passing through the oropharynx and laryngopharynx could damage this type of epithelium. Predict which type of epithelium protects the lining of the oropharynx and laryngopharynx.
what is the trachea? how does the trachea affect the ciliated pseudo-stratified columnar epithelium, the basement membrane and the hyaline cartilage?
What kind of epithelium lines the nasal cavity, trachea and both principal
bronchi?
a. Stratified squamous epithelium
O b. Stratified squamous epithelium in the nasal cavity and respiratory epithelium for
trachea and principle bronchi
O c. Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium
O d. Pseudostratified columnar epithelium with goblet cells
