Study Notes
Kidney Structure
- There are approximately 1 million nephrons in each kidney.
Urinary Bladder
- The epithelium associated with the urinary bladder is transitional epithelium.
RNA Synthesis
- RNA polymerase II catalyzes the synthesis of messenger RNA (mRNA).
Lymphatic System
- The lymphatic capillary within a villus of the small intestine is called a lacteal.
Smooth Muscle
- Smooth muscle is characterized by the presence of non-striated, spindle-shaped cells, and it is capable of involuntary contraction.
