What type of epithelial tissue propels substances (e.g. mucus) across surfaces?
Pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelial tissue propels substances across surfaces.
What type of epithelial tissue propels substances across it surface?
transitional lackpa
What tissue forms the inner lining of the respiratory passages?
The type of epithelial tissue that lines much of the respiratory tract is called pseudostratified columnar. This type of tissue also moves substances across its surface.
What is the barrier around the that lets substances move across it?
cell surface membrane
What is it called when the damage of the epidermis isn't severe and the surface epithelium migrates beneath the dry scab and across the surface of the granulation tissue?
Regeneration
What purpose do cilia and microtubules serve for some types of epithelia?
To help move things across the surface of the tissue.
What causes an alkali metal to move over the surface of water while reacting with it?
The densities of lithium, sodium and potassium are less than that of water and so they float on water. They react with water to produce hydrogen gas and this propels the metal across the surface of the water.
Why do cell membranes have convolutions?
To increase surface area, allowing greater contact area for 'transport' of nutrients (movement of substances across the membrane).
How can substances move across capillaries?
Substances typically move across capillaries via diffusion.
What projections allow the cell to move or moves substances along the surface of the cell?
Projections that allow the cell to move or to move substances along the surface of the cell are called cilia and flagella. Flagella is a single long hair that allows the cell to swim. Cilia are several projections used for movement across the cell surface.
At what speed do most amtrak sleeper cars travel across country?
Each sleeper car travels at the speed of the locomotive that propels it.
What membrane components allow movement of non-polar substances across membrane?
Integral proteins allow movement of non-polar substances across membranes.
