Yes! avascular means without blood vessels.

∙ 13y agoNo it has no vascularization, with one exception. It gets it's vascularization from the connective tissue upon which it rests.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoEpithelial tissue cells are avascular so they are nourished by substances diffusing from blood vessels in the underlying connective tissue.
Oxygen is diffused through the basal lamina.

What is an epithelial membrane?
the epithelial system is a system in your body. It is made from Skin cells. A group of skin cells make epithelial tissue. Epithelial tissue makes the epithelial system.
What would would a group of ciliated cells be called?
ciliated epithelial tissue
Epithelial cells are classified as?
A group of epithelial cells organized to perform a common function would be a tissue.
Is Testicular cancer found in the connective tissue cells or the epithelial cells of the semiferous tubules?
epithelial cells of the semiinferous tubules.
What tissue carries oxygen to cells?
Blood id the tissue that carries oxygen to cells in body . Blood is a liquid connective tissue . It possess RBC which contain hemoglobin . Hemoglobin binds with oxygen and transports it .
Is property of epithelial tissue innerveted?
whereas most tissue are vascular (contain blood vessels), epithelium is avascular, meaning it lacks blood vessels. epithelial cells receive their nutrients from capillaries in the underlying connective tissue. although blood vessels do not penetrate epithelial sheets, nerve endings do; that is, epithelium is innervated (supply organ with nerve).
What cells has one free surface and lack blood vessels?
epithelial tissue
Which tissue forms a continuous sheet of cells with no blood cells?
Simple epithelial tissues have no blood vessels and line or cover structures.
What is an epithelial membrane?
the epithelial system is a system in your body. It is made from Skin cells. A group of skin cells make epithelial tissue. Epithelial tissue makes the epithelial system.
What membrane contains no epithelial cells?
The membranes that do not contain gland cells are called basement membranes. These basement membranes line the interiors of blood vessels and the skin.
What is tissue that is composed of closely packed cells with little extracellular material?
Epithelial tissue are closely connected and have a basal membrane, even though not all epithelial cells are necessarily connected to the basal membrane. The so called simple epithelial tissue subgroup does.
Does epithleal tissues have blood vessels?
Epithelial cells are the lining cells. they are not a tissue. this is to be understood first. the outermost lining is known as the epithelial cell lining. it is provided its nutrition through diffusion- indirectly through blood. BUT they DO NOT have a blood vessel supply, since they are not an organ/tissue, just a cell lining.
Which tissue consists of sheets of cells?
Epithelial tissue consists of sheets of cells.
Which tissue forms a continuous sheet of cells with no blood vessels?
Simple epithelial tissues have no blood vessels and line or cover structures.
What tissue organ and system are epithelial cells in?
Skin tissue
Where is epithelial tissue found in the body?
Epithelial tissue is found throughout the body in your skin, organs and cells.
What would would a group of ciliated cells be called?
ciliated epithelial tissue
