Best Answer

The epithelial tissues of your body is the SKIN. The skin is the largest organ of the human body that protects the body and acts like a sponge too. If it is damaged or burnt it must be repaired or replaced or the human body will die. If your epithelial tissues gets infected it can spread infection throughout the body. Antibodies will collect in the injured epithelial tissues to fight off infection but they are not always strong enough to win the battle. If the skin is burnt it loses moisture and the protective layer and can have exposed nerves burnt too. Even a sunburn can be dangerous because the skin gets robbed of natural moisturiser and the nerves are harmed, which is why sunburns hurt. Burn ointment must be put on the burn to restore moisture and provide pain medication to the injured nerve endings. The tissues also line internal parts, organs and other things. The mucosa has epithelial tissue.
