3. Which of the following is NOT a type of epithelium

• A. Stratified squamous
• B. Simple cuboidal
• C. Stratified columnar
• D. Stratified columnar

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Stratified columnar.' Epithelial tissues are classified based on their structure and function. Stratified squamous epithelium consists of multiple layers of flattened cells and is found in areas that need protection, like the skin. Simple cuboidal epithelium is a single layer of cube-shaped cells that function in secretion and absorption, commonly found in kidney tubules. Stratified columnar epithelium is a rare type with multiple layers of column-shaped cells, primarily found in the male urethra. Since 'Stratified columnar' is a valid type of epithelium, it is NOT the correct answer for this question.

Rationale: The correct answer is A: "Organizational chart." In the context of the question, the individual is aiming to impact the established patterns of thinking and behavior within a group or organization.

By influencing the organizational chart, the individual can potentially shape the hierarchical structure and decision-making processes, thereby impacting the customary way of thinking and behaving within the organization. Options B, C, and D do not directly refer to the visual representation of roles and relationships within an organization, making them incorrect choices for this question.
