2. What ctype cof cepithelium ccovers cthe cposterior ctwo-thirds cof cthe cnasal cmucosa?
a. Squamous
b. Squamous, cnonciliated
c. Pseudostratified, cciliated ccolumnar
d. Pseudostratified, cciliated ccolumnar cwith cmucus-secreting cglands
ANS: c D
Squamous, cnonciliated cepithelium clines cthe canterior cthird cof cthe cnose; cpseudostratified,
cciliated ccolumnar cepithelium cinterspersed cwith cmany cmucus-secreting cglands ccovers cthe
cposterior ctwo-thirds, cincluding cthe cturbinates. cThis cmucus-secreting cepithelium cis ccalled
cthe crespiratory cmucosa.
