🗑
Cells that do not regularly undergo mitosis but are able to if the need arises   Stable cells  
🗑
Cells that cannot undergo mitosis   Permanent cells  
🗑

🗑
If the number of layers of cells in stratified epithelial tissue changes, which kind of epithelial tissue is it?   Stratified transitional epithelium  
🗑
The secretions of an exocrine gland are examined, and it is determined that there is cytoplasm in the secretions. This narrows the type down to these two:   Apocrine or holocrine  
🗑

🗑
Four basic types of tissue   Epithelial tissue, connective tissue, nervous tissue, and muscle tissue  
🗑
These determine the distance from the free surface to the basal surface in epithelial tissue.   The height of the cells and the number of layers of cells.
