Absorption of glucose from the gut lumen depends on?
the sodium-potassium pump in the basolateral membrane of the epithelial cell, cotransporter proteins in the apical membrane of the epithelial cell, and higher sodium ion concentration in the lumen than in the epithelial.
What side of epithelial faces the lumen?
Apical Border is the side of an epithelial cell that faces the lumen.
What are ten different cell parts in a human epithelial cell?
The cell parts of an epithelial cell include; apical and basal regions and a basement membrane (basal lamina). Epithelial cells are held together by desmosomes, adherens, tight junctions and gap junctions.
When epithelial tissue is a single layer its called?
The portion of the cell exposed to the lumen. The layer of plasma membrane on the apical side (side towards the lumen) of the epithelial cells in a body tube or cavity, separated from the basolateral membrane by the zonula occludens.- thefreedictionary.com
An epithelial cell can be divided into two functional regions They are the surface and the surface?
An epithelial cell can be divided into basal and apical functional regions.
Absorption of glucose from the gut lumen depends on?
the sodium-potassium pump in the basolateral membrane of the epithelial cell, cotransporter proteins in the apical membrane of the epithelial cell, and higher sodium ion concentration in the lumen than in the epithelial.
What side of epithelial faces the lumen?
Apical Border is the side of an epithelial cell that faces the lumen.
What type of tissue has an apical and basal surface?
Epithelial tissue lines body surfaces and cavities as have apical and basement sides.
Where is epithelial tissue in the stomach?
apical surface
What are ten different cell parts in a human epithelial cell?
The cell parts of an epithelial cell include; apical and basal regions and a basement membrane (basal lamina). Epithelial cells are held together by desmosomes, adherens, tight junctions and gap junctions.
Do epithelial tissues always exhibit polarity?
Yes, all epithelial exhibit what is called apical-basal polarity
When epithelial tissue is a single layer its called?
The portion of the cell exposed to the lumen. The layer of plasma membrane on the apical side (side towards the lumen) of the epithelial cells in a body tube or cavity, separated from the basolateral membrane by the zonula occludens.- thefreedictionary.com
An epithelial cell can be divided into two functional regions They are the surface and the surface?
An epithelial cell can be divided into basal and apical functional regions.
Apical epithelial cell structures functions in the movement of materials across the surface of the cell?
cilia
In the proximal convoluted tubule are the Na K pumps located only on the apical sides of the epithelial membranes?
false
What is the function of epitheliam tissue?
Functions of epithelial cells include secretion, selective absorption, protection, transcellular transport and detection of sensation. As a result, they commonly present extensive apical-basolateral polarity (e.g. different membrane proteins expressed) and specialization.
What multilayered epithelium with cuboidal basal cells and flat cells at its surface would be classified as?
Multiple cell layers whose apical cells are flattened are stratified squamous. These are epithelial cells arranged in layers upon a basal membrane.
