Answer:

stratified squamous mucosa

Step-by-step explanation:

The vagina is a muscular tube lined by a stratified squamous mucosa containing abundant glycogen. There is no epithelial keratin layer, but the mucosa is protected by an acid environment (lactic acid) resulting from bacterial growth on a glycogen substrate supplied by the mucosa.
