What type of epithelial tissue found in areas of wear and tear?
simple squamous
What particles move from areas where there a lot of them to areas where there are fewer of them?
they are called moving particles.
How does epithelial tissue do its job?
Epithelial tissues are used in multicellular organisms to protect areas of their bodies that come into contact with the external environment, so they are mostly found in skin and the gastrointestinal tract.
What is the eventual result of diffusion describe concentration prior to and at this point?
The eventual result of diffusion is equilibrium. The concentrations prior to this point would be uneven. The solutes then diffuse from areas of high solute concentration to areas of low solute concentration. After diffusion, at equilibrium, the concentration will be even in different areas.
What is the role of diffusion in your life?
a good example of diffusion is when you spray perfume on yourself,it can be smelled from far away. this is because of diffusion,the molecules of the perfume try to travel the areas where they are not present than the areas where they are present in high concentration..
What epithelial tissue is found in areas subject to friction and abuse?
Stratified squamous epithelium is the kind of epithelial tissue found in areas subject to friction and abuse. For example, this type is found in the esophagus.
Is the epithelial tissue considered a type of lining for the body areas?
yes
What type of epithelial tissue found in areas of wear and tear?
simple squamous
The epithelial tissue found in areas subject to considerable friction and abuse such as the esophagus is?
stratified squamous epithelium
The epithelial tissue found in areas subject to considerable stretching?
Transitional epithelium is found in areas that are subject to considerable stretching. Tissue in the bladder, urethra, ureters, an prostate often expand and contract.
What is best suited for area subject to friction?
Stratified squamous epithelial tissue is best suited for areas subjected to friction.
Is epithelium present only in the epidermis?
Epithelial tissue is present in many areas of the body, including the linings of body cavities and tubes.
Which type of epithelium is adapted to protect underlying tissues from abrasion and friction?
The stratified squamous epithelium consists of flattened epithelial cells arranged in layers upon a basal membrane. It's the thickest, and layers can be sloughed off and replaced before the basement membrane is exposed. It forms the outer layer of the skin and the inner lining of the mouth, esophagus, and vagina.
Which process describes the movement of molecules from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration-?
diffusion. novanet.

The roles of Osmosis and diffusion?
Diffusion - the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentration, to areas of low concentration. Osmosis - the diffusion of water (across a membrane)
