To answer the question about the cells of the endothelium and mesothelium becoming wavy, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Types of Epithelium**: - The endothelium is the layer of cells lining blood vessels, lymph vessels, and the heart. - The mesothelium is the epithelium lining the body's soft organs (viscera). 2. **Identify the Condition of the Cells**: - The question asks about the condition when these cells become wavy. 3. **Explore the Options Provided**: - **Syncytium**: This refers to a multi-nucleated condition, not relevant here. - **Acellular**: This means there are no cells, also not applicable. - **Tessellated**: This term describes a pattern resembling tiles, which fits the description of wavy cells in epithelium. - **Polygonal**: This refers to the shape of cells and is not relevant to the wavy condition. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct term for the wavy appearance of the endothelium and mesothelium is **tessellated epithelium**. ### Final Answer: The cells of endothelium and mesothelium become wavy and are called **tessellated epithelium**. ---
