stratified squamous epithelium

Which type of tissue provides support, protection, and fills gaps between tissues? Muscle tissue Connective tissue Nervous tissue Epithelial tissue

Connective tissue

The largest membrane of the body, the ____________ , provides a protective barrier from environmental factors such as chemicals, water, microbes, and mechanical trauma. Consisting of epithelium overlying areolar connective tissue, a ____________ lines passageways of the body such as those of the digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive tracts. Consisting of simple squamous epithelium overlying a thin layer of areolar connective tissue, a ____________ lines some body cavities and produces a thin, watery secretion, called ____________ , that lubricates internal areas.

Cutaneous membrane Mucous membrane Serous membrane Serous fluid

What is the definition of a tissue? A layer of cells with different functions. A group of similar cells with a common function. A group of cells with no function. A single cell with many functions.

A group of similar cells with a common function.

This tissue always has a free or ____________ surface that is exposed to an open space.

Apical

The other side of the tissue sets on a ____________ which helps anchor the tissue to underlying structures.

Basement membrane

Epithelial tissue ____________ blood vessels. Epithelial cells ____________ divide and are ____________ packed together. Epithelial tissues are classified or named according to the ____________ of the apical cells; for example, squamous or cuboidal epithelium. The tissue is also named according to the ____________ of cell layers; for example, simple epithelium.
