The inner lining of the urinary bladder is a mucous membrane of transitional epithelium that is continuous with that in the ureters. When the bladder is empty, the mucosa has numerous folds called rugae. The rugae and transitional epithelium allow the bladder to expand as it fills. -

Each kidney is held in place by connective tissue, called renal fascia, and is surrounded by a thick layer of adipose tissue, called perirenal fat, which helps to protect it. A tough, fibrous, connective tissue renal capsule closely envelopes each kidney and provides support for the soft tissue that is inside. -
The ureter is lined by urothelium, a type of transitional epithelium that is capable of responding to stretches in the ureters. The transitional epithelium may appear as a layer of column-shaped cells when relaxed, and of flatter cells when distended. Below the epithelium sits the lamina propria.

The epithelium provides physical barrier to infection, lining the respiratory tract from the nose to the alveoli with a wide range of cell types. Ciliated epithelial cells are important in propelling mucus up the airway, thereby removing particulate material.

Smooth muscle – Smooth muscle is a non-striated, involuntary muscle that lacks sarcomeres and thus no striations. Smooth muscle is classified into two types: single-unit and multiunit. The entire bundle or sheet of smooth muscle cells contracts as a syncytium within single-unit muscle.

Cardiac muscle – Cardiac muscle (also known as heart muscle or myocardium) is one of three forms of muscle tissue found in vertebrates. The other two are skeletal and smooth muscle. It is an involuntary, striated muscle that makes up the majority of the heart's wall tissue.

Muscle tissue is made up of cells with the unique capacity to shorten or contract in order to cause bodily components to move. The tissue is densely packed with cells and has a good supply of blood vessels.

There are trillions of cells in the human body. They support the body’s structure, absorb nutrients from meals, transform those nutrients to energy, and perform specialized functions. Cells also contain the body’s genetic material and have the ability to replicate themselves.
