Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Ciliated simple columnar epithelium is found in the lungs. Simple columnar epithelium is found from the stomach to the anus. Stratified columnar epithelium is found in the lining of the epiglot-tis, part of the pharynx, the anus, and the male urethra. Pseudostratified ciliate columnar epithe-lium is found in the lining of the large ducts of some glands (parotid, salivary), male urethra, res-piratory passages, and Eustachian tubes of the ears.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Conductivity, not sensory interpretation, homeostasis, or communication, is one of the eight chief functions of nerve cells.
