What type of tissue has an apical and basal surface?
Epithelial tissue lines body surfaces and cavities as have apical and basement sides.
The tissue that lines all internal surfaces is?
epithelium
What are facts about Ciliated epithelium?
It is Epithelium composed of cells bearing cilia on their free surfaces.
What are epithelium cells?
Epithelial cells are cells that line cavities and surfaces in the body. They come in squamous, cuboidal and columnar varieties. A basement membance separates the epithelium from connective tissue.
What type of epithelium that secretes into ducts that open onto surfaces like skin or into body fluids?
glandular epithilium
How do avascular tissue receive nutreints?
By diffusion or absorption across the apical or basal surfaces of Epithelium.
What type of epithelium has dome shaped cell on the apical surface?
transitional
Why is the epidermis keratinized and not non-keratinized?
In this case, the most apical layers (exterior) of cells are dead and lose their nucleus and cytoplasm, instead contain a tough, resistant protein called keratin. This specialization makes the epithelium waterproof, so is found in the mammalian skin.
What type of tissue has an apical and basal surface?
Epithelial tissue lines body surfaces and cavities as have apical and basement sides.
The tissue that lines all internal surfaces is?
epithelium
Which epithelium is highly absorptive due to increased surface area cause by microvilli found on free apical surface?
Enterocytes.
Is transitional epithelium highly absorptive because of increased surface area caused by microvilli found on free apical surface?
Yes
What are facts about Ciliated epithelium?
It is Epithelium composed of cells bearing cilia on their free surfaces.
What is the epithelium that covers the inner surfaces of the eyelids and the outer surface of the eye called?
The answer is conjunctiva.
What thin sheets of tissue that secretes mucus and line body surfaces?
simple squamous epithelium
What are epithelium cells?
Epithelial cells are cells that line cavities and surfaces in the body. They come in squamous, cuboidal and columnar varieties. A basement membance separates the epithelium from connective tissue.
What best describes covering and lining epithelium?
Covering epithelium is tissue which covers and lines all of the bodies surfaces and cavities inside and out for example the skin.
