Which characteristic of epithelial tissues would you expect to find in a duct that is subject to a high degree of pressure (such as the male urethra)?
a) cuboidal shape
b) simple layering
c) pseudostratified layering
d) stratified layering

d) Stratified layering

Explanation:

The wall of the ducts is formed by a lining epithelium that forms a small tube with a central lumen.  The epithelium that forms the duct is initially of the simple cubic type. If the gland is small and the duct is short, it maintains this structure throughout its course, subjected to a high degree of pressure.

These ducts have from more complex glands the duct epithelium ends up becoming simple prismatic and may even become stratified. In this case, the tissues have stratified layering

step 1: nitrogen fixation- conversion of atmospheric no₂ into forms useful to plants by lightning, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

step 2: nitrification-process of converting ammonia to nitrite or nitrate.

step 3: assimilation-plant roots absorb new form of nitrogen.

step 4: ammonification-conversion of organic nitrogen to ammonia by bacteria involved in decomposition.

step 5: denitrification-bacteria turns the decomposed matter back into n₂o, which is released into atmosphere; repeat cycle.
