What is the primary role of epithelial tissue?
The function of the Epithelial tissue can be :: a, for cover the body surfaces, forms the inner lining of body cavity, and also lines the hollow organs. b. for regeneration cells. c, for physical protection from abrasion, dehydration and destruction from chemical and biological substances. d. for large sensory nerve supply such as NeuroEpithelium. e, for regulate permeability like selective absorption nutrient and secretion. f. for Specialize secretion such as Glandular Epithelium that secretes onto surface and interstitial fluid and blood.
What does cheek cells being folded or wrinkled tell you about the thickness of the cell?
Epithelial cells rely on total surface area to maximize absorption or nutrient transfer. By being folded and wrinkled, they are able to increase the total surface area available for transfer in a small amount of space.
What is the most important role of fungi in the ecosystem?
Fungi are the principal decomposers on Earth.
When nutrient are transported from intestinal epithelial cells to the vascular system what organ is the first to receive?

What are the pits or pockets between the villi that secrete large volumes of intestinal juices and electrolytes into the small intestine to help nutrient digestion?

What is the primary kind of motility in the small intestine during digestion of a meal?
Segmentation- series of stationary rhythmic contractions and relaxations of rings of intestinal smooth muscle; mixes intestinal contents. Segmentation mixes the cyme with intestinal secretions and brings it into repeated contact with the absorptive epithelium. The slow passage insures nutrient absorption.
What is a substance found in food that provides needed resources for cellular function?
