How does epithelium obtain nutrients and oxygen and get rid of wastes?
Epithelial cells obtain nutrients and oxygen from the underlying connective tissue via diffusion. Metabolic waste products are removed through diffusion into the connective tissue and subsequently cleared by the bloodstream and lymphatic system. The efficiency of these processes is essential for maintaining the health and function of the epithelium.
How do epithelial tissues receive nutrients?
Epithelial tissues receive nutrients through diffusion from nearby blood vessels or from the underlying connective tissue. Nutrients can also be transported through the epithelial cells via active transport mechanisms.
What are the 3 major groups of connective tissue?
Epithelial, muscle, and nervous. Disagree- the 3 subgroups are: loose, dense, and connective tissue with special properties. Subgroups within dense are: dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are interwoven in disordered fashion, and dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are in parallel bundles. Subgroups in the special properties connective tissue are named to indicate the identifying feature, such as mucous connective tissue, elastic connective tissue or reticular connective tissue.
The connective tissue membrane covering a bone is the ending in -um?
The connective tissue membrane covering a bone is called the periosteum. It serves to protect the bone, provide nutrients, and support bone growth and repair.
Which of these is not a type of connective tissue?
Muscle tissue is not a type of connective tissue. Connective tissue includes types such as adipose tissue, cartilage, bone, and blood.

Skin is supplied with oxygen and nutrients by the?
Underlying connective tissue
What tissue has good blood supply and an extensive extracellular matrix?
connective tissue
How would you classify blood?
Blood is classified as a connective tissue. It is composed of various components such as red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. It plays a vital role in transporting oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and waste products throughout the body.
What is the tissue group with widely scattered cells?
Connective tissue is the tissue group with widely scattered cells. In connective tissue, cells are separated by an extracellular matrix composed of fibers and ground substance. Examples of connective tissue include loose connective tissue, dense connective tissue, and adipose tissue.
Which kind of tissue is blood?
Connective Tissue, because it's formed from the same embryonic layer as other connective tissues.
What layers of the skin relies on capillaries in the underlying connective tissue in the dermis for its nutrients?
Har folicle
Scar tissue is a variety of what?
Connective tissue
Is Nails a connective tissue?
No. They are not connective tissue.
What type connective tissue is springlike and found in the middle walls of arteries?
Elastic Connective Tissue
How do epithelial tissues receive nutrients?
Epithelial tissues receive nutrients through diffusion from nearby blood vessels or from the underlying connective tissue. Nutrients can also be transported through the epithelial cells via active transport mechanisms.
What connective tissue surrounds the spleen?
The tissue of the spleen is reticular connective tissue.
