Epithelial Tissue and Integument Identify each of the common characteristics of epithelial tissue based on the description: 1. cells obtain nutrients by diffusion across the basal surface 2. cells are highly mitotic 3. tightly packed cells with little extracellular matrix 4. cells attach to a basal noncellular layer containing protein fibe 5. high capacity to detect changes in the surrounding environme 6. one side of the cells faces an internal or external open space Define these terms from a histology perspective: 7. basal surface 8. apical surface 9. lateral surface 10. simple 11. stratified 12. pseudostratified 13. Use the proper terminology to describe the shape of these cells b.Cwaida C. Columnar

Explanation / Answer

1 avascular

2 Regeneration

3 Cellularity

4 attachment to basal surface

5 sensory

6 Polarity

simple simple epithelia consists of single layer of cells

stratified epithelia consisits of two or more layers of cells

pseudostratified epithelium is a type of epithelium that though comprising of only single layer of cells has its own nuclei positioned in a manner that it seems like stratified epithelium example lining of trachea
