What else can I help you with?
What epithelial tissue lines the mouth and protects underlying tissues?
Stratified squamous epithelium lines the mouth and serves to protect the underlying tissues from mechanical stress and abrasion. This type of epithelium has multiple layers of flat cells that help resist wear and tear.
What is the fluid that lines the alveoli is produced by?
what is the name of the liquid layer that lines the alveoli
What lines the mouth present outer surface of the skin?
stratified squamous epithelium
What is the name of the thick slippery substance that lines the esophagus?
pseudo-stratified ciliated
Is gas exchanged in the pleura?
Gas exchange does not occur in the pleura. The pleura is a membrane that lines the outside of the lungs and inside of the chest cavity. Gas exchange, where oxygen is taken in and carbon dioxide is removed, happens in the alveoli of the lungs.
What type of epithelium lines the esophagus?
According to my histology textbook, non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium lines the length of the Esophagus. not too sure why though!! when cells are not keratinised the surface cells can be used alternatively to protect the underlying cells. this only occurs in areas where there will be very little friction therefore damage caused to the cells. WHY its non-kerantinized, because its WET. keratinized stratified squamous epithelium is dry (nails, hair, skin).
Is the linning of the esophagus simple columnar?
No, Stratified Squamous epithelium tissue lines the esophagus.
What type of epithelium line anus?
Simple stratified epithelium lines the anus.
What type of cell which lines inner cheek cell?
Stratified squamous epithelium. It is non-keratinised.
The fluid that lines the alveoli contains a substance that reduces surface tension known as?
surfactant
The sustance that reduces surface tensin in the alveoli is?
Surfactant is a substance which lines the inside of alveoli. It is composed of a phospholipid bilayer, which have hydrophyllic and hydrophobic properties. This allows it to reduce surface tension.
What are examples of epithelial tissues?
Epithelial tissue is any tissue that lines cavities. An example is skin (keratinized stratified squamous)
