What else can I help you with?
What tissue is found in a blood vessel?
blood cells
What tissue makes up the blood vessel inner tunic?
The tunica interna of a blood vessel is a single layer of endothelium with a basal lamina.Connective tissue
Why would the fact that alveoli and blood vessel linings consist of squamous epithelium indicate to you that diffusion readily occurs through squamous epithelium?
Alveoli and blood vessel linings are composed of squamous epithelium, which is characterized by its thin, flat structure. This morphology minimizes the distance that gases and nutrients must travel, facilitating efficient diffusion. The reduced thickness of squamous epithelium allows for quicker exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs, as well as the transfer of nutrients and waste products in blood vessels. Thus, the presence of squamous epithelium indicates an adaptation for rapid diffusion in these critical areas of the body.
Stratified squamous epithelium lines blood vessels?
If stratified squamous epithelium lined the blood vessels, gas and nutrient exchange across the vessel walls would become much more complex, requiring multiple transports and making the process much more energy intensive.
What is the connection between the shape and the function of epithelium tissue?
thin wall - rapid diffusion small gaps - allow diffusion and actv tspt goblet cells in lung epithelium - secrete mucus to trap bacteria ciliated epithelium - waft mucus out of the lungs squamous - stretch and recoil around a blood vessel there are about another 10 types of specialised epithelium tissues and cells in the human body
What tissues lines the interior of blood vessels?
The innermost layer of epithelial cells of a blood vessel is called endothelium.
How does connective tissue obtain nutrients?
Connective tissue obtains nutrients through diffusion from nearby blood vessels. Nutrients diffuse through the blood vessel walls and into the surrounding connective tissue to provide nourishment to the cells within the tissue.
What outer layer of blood vessels is composed of connective tissue?
connectiveThe outer layer of a blood vessel (artery or vein) is called the tunica externa or tunica adventitia.See http://training.seer.cancer.gov/module_anatomy/unit7_3_cardvasc_blood1_classification.htmlpericardium is the layer of the blood vessel that is made of tough connective tissue.
The innermost layer of a blood vessel is composed of?
The tunic intima is the innermost layer of a blood vessel. It has a slic surface that minimizes friction, allowing blood to move through the lumen.
What is the difference between epithelial and connective tissues in terms of the arrangement of cells?
connective tissue *No. of cells are less. * matrix is in large amount * cells donot on basement membrane. *three types:connective tissue skeletal tissue liquid connective tissue Epithelial tissue *A large no. of cells occurs in the tissue *matrix is absent or negligible. *cells rest on basement membrane. *two types:simple epithelium stratified epithelium
The outer layer of blood vessels is composed of connective tissue called the?
The outer layer of blood vessels is composed of connective tissue called the tunica externa or adventitia. This layer provides structural support and protection to the blood vessel. It also helps to anchor the vessel in place within surrounding tissues.
What is smooth dense irregular connective tissue that is continuous with the outer coat of the ureter?
The smooth dense irregular connective tissue that is continuous with the outer coat of the ureter is known as the adventitia. It provides structural support and anchors the vessel in place, allowing for movement and flexibility.
