Yes! avascular means without blood vessels.

∙ 12y agoNo, epithelial tissue does not contain blood cells. Epithelial tissue acts as a protective barrier and lining in the body, and it is not vascularized with blood. Blood cells are found in the circulatory system within the blood vessels.

∙ 13y agoNo it has no vascularization, with one exception. It gets it's vascularization from the connective tissue upon which it rests.

∙ 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.

No, blood is not an example of epithelial tissue. Epithelial tissue is composed of closely packed cells that line the surfaces and cavities of the body, while blood is a connective tissue composed of cells suspended in a liquid matrix called plasma.
It means that the cells that line structures were found, but they were not the type found in the kidneys.
An epithelial membrane is a thin layer of tissue that covers organs, lines cavities, and forms the outer layer of the skin. It consists of epithelial cells attached to an underlying connective tissue layer. Epithelial membranes serve to protect, secrete, and absorb substances.
Epithelial tissue is composed of tightly packed cells that line organs and serve as barriers to protect against injury, infection, and absorption of nutrients. It is avascular, meaning it lacks blood vessels, and is classified based on its shape (squamous, cuboidal, columnar) and number of cell layers (simple, stratified). Epithelial tissue can also contain specialized structures like cilia or microvilli to assist in functions such as movement or absorption.
True. Epithelial tissues do not contain blood vessels, which is why they rely on diffusion from nearby blood vessels in connective tissues for their nutrient and oxygen supply.

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).
The synovial membrane is an example of a membrane that does not contain epithelial cells. It lines joint cavities and is composed of connective tissue cells.

Simple epithelial tissues have no blood vessels and line or cover structures.
The meninges, which are membranes that envelop the brain and spinal cord, are composed mainly of connective tissue rather than epithelial tissue. Additionally, the synovial membrane, found in joint cavities, is made up of connective tissue and does not contain epithelial cells.
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.

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.

Epithelial tissue consists of sheets of cells.
