The two bands of tissue in the throat are the tonsils and the uvula. The tonsils are located at the back of the throat and help filter out bacteria and viruses, while the uvula is the fleshy piece of tissue that hangs down at the back of the throat and plays a role in controlling airflow and producing certain sounds during speech.

What is throat tissue called?

What is the name of the throat tissue?
ciliated epithelial cells
Where are the tonsils found?
The tonsils are two small, rounded masses of glandular tissue located on either side of the throat. The tonsils are part of the lymphoid system, and produce infection-fighting antibodies against bacteria and viruses entering through the throat. You can usually see the tonsils by looking into your child's throat using a flashlight.
What are the bands of connective tissue found at ankle and wrist that help anchor muscle tendons?
At the ankle, the bands of connective tissue that help anchor muscle tendons are known as the retinaculum. At the wrist, the bands of connective tissue that serve a similar function are called the flexor and extensor retinaculum. These structures assist in holding tendons in place and provide stability during movement.
What type of connective tissue is composed of longitudinal bands of collagen comprising ligaments and tendons?
Dense regular connective tissue is composed of longitudinal bands of collagen fibers. It is found in structures like ligaments and tendons, providing strength and support for movement.
