What structures are used by prokaryotes for attaching to surfaces?
both pili and capsules
The internal and external surfaces of the body are covered by?
The internal surfaces such as inside blood vessels and lymph nodes are covered by endothelium and the external surfaces are covered by epithelium. "Epithelial tissues line the cavities and surfaces of structures throughout the body, and also form many glands." (Wikipedia)
What are intercellular attachments?
Intercellular attachments are different kinds of attachments that keeps cells together. There are:Occluding junction form a barrier that isolates the basolateral surfaces and deeper the tissuses from the contents of the lumen.An Adhesion belt locks together the terminal webs of the neighboring cells, strengthening the apical region and preventing distortion and leakage at the occluding junction.Gap junction permits chemical communication that coordinates the activities of adjacent cells. Desomosomesprovides firm attachment between neighboring cells by interlocking their cytoskeletons.
What kind of tissue covers the surfaces of structures inside the body?
Epithelial tissue coats surfaces in the body.
What are structures that anchor bread molds to their foods substrate?
Rhizoids are structures that anchor bread mold to their food substrate . Rhizoids are type of hyphae for anchoring and absorption of digested food .
Tissue covers the surfaces of structures inside the body?
epithelial
Which vascular structures has the greatest combined surfaces area?
capillaries
A meniscus functions to cushion articulating surfaces of bones.?
true
What types of cell junctions connect cells within tissues?
The apical surface does not have any cell junctions because it is a free surface exposed to things that are not epithelial cells. The lateral surfaces of an epithelial cell, which face the adjacent cells on either side contain tight junctions, adherens junctions, desmosomes and/or gap junctions. The basal surface of an epithelial cell adhere to extracellular materials like the basement membrane. Hemidesmosomes anchor the epithelium to the basement membrane in the basal surface.
What structures are used by prokaryotes for attaching to surfaces?
both pili and capsules
Why should associations regulates event staging?
protect internal structures, and function as sensory surfaces
What makes architecture minimalist?
Minimalism is the paring back to the essentials or minimums. In architecture, this involves removing anything applied or decorative, leaving plain smooth surfaces with unadorned or unemphasized connections and junctions.
What has the author Hershel M Farkas written?

What has the author Henry Frederick Baker written?
Henry Frederick Baker has written: 'Abel's theorem and the allied theory' -- subject(s): Abelian Functions, Functions, Abelian, Functions, Theta, Riemann surfaces, Theta Functions
What two structures do frogs use for gas exchange?
Frogs uses respiratory surfaces which totals to three to exchange gases on its surroundings. The three respiratory surfaces are the skin, its lungs, and the lining of their mouth.
The internal and external surfaces of the body are covered by?
The internal surfaces such as inside blood vessels and lymph nodes are covered by endothelium and the external surfaces are covered by epithelium. "Epithelial tissues line the cavities and surfaces of structures throughout the body, and also form many glands." (Wikipedia)
The components of membranes that account for most of their active functions are?
Diverse proteins embedded in the lipid bilayer or positioned at one of its surfaces carry out most of the membranes functions.
