Pseudo stratified cells are actually layered
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Pseudostratified columnar epithelia are tissues formed by a single layer of cells that give the appearance of being made from multiple layers, especially when seen in cross section. The nuclei of these epithelial cells are at different levels leading to the illusion of being stratified.

Detailed explanation-2: -A pseudostratified epithelium is a type of epithelium that, though comprising only a single layer of cells, has its cell nuclei positioned in a manner suggestive of stratified epithelia.

Detailed explanation-3: -In pseudostratified columnar epithelium, the epithelium appears as multilayered, cells are of more than one type, and longer cells extend up to the free surface, while the short cells do not reach the free surface.

Detailed explanation-4: -Pseudostratified epithelia consist of a single layer of cells, but due to the different heights of the cells, it gives.

Detailed explanation-5: -When we refer to something as ‘pseudostratified, ’ we mean it has a ‘pseudo’ (false) stratification, or that it appears as if it is layered when it’s actually a single layer of cells.
