Looks layered. Is actually single layer. Has cilia. Does secretion and moves mucus. Respiratory tract.
transitional epithelium
Multi layered. can stretch. can change shape. lines the bladder. lines the urinary tract. does protection and allows expansion.

tissue. multi layered cells. outer layer is moist. lacks keratin. found in areas like the pussy. does secretion. protects against abrasion.
