    • Columnar

    Correct Answer
    A. Lamellae
    Explanation
    Epithelial tissue is a type of tissue that covers the surfaces of the body and lines the internal organs. It is responsible for protection, absorption, secretion, and sensation. Squamous, cuboidal, transitional, simple, stratified, pseudostratified, and columnar are all types of epithelial tissues. Lamellae, on the other hand, refers to thin layers or sheets of tissue found in certain structures like bones or gills. Therefore, lamellae is not a type of epithelial tissue, making it the correct answer.

    • The Muscular

    • The Nervous

    • The Connective

    • The Epithelial

    Correct Answer
    A. The Nervous
    Explanation
    The glia is a type of cell that is part of the nervous tissue. Glia cells provide support and protection to neurons in the nervous system. They help in maintaining the structure and function of the nervous system by insulating neurons, regulating the chemical environment, and providing nutrients to neurons. Therefore, the correct answer is the nervous tissue.

    • Most abundant tissue in body

    • Strong fibers

    • Glue that holds organs togather

    • Function is transportation

    Correct Answer
    A. Most abundant tissue in body
    Explanation
    Connective tissue is the most abundant tissue in the body because it is found throughout the body and serves various functions. It is composed of strong fibers that provide structural support and help hold organs together. Additionally, connective tissue plays a crucial role in transportation, as it contains blood vessels and lymphatic vessels that transport nutrients, oxygen, and waste products. Overall, connective tissue is essential for maintaining the integrity and functioning of the body's organs and systems.

    The simple columnar epithelium

    • Line stomach and intestines

    • Found in body areas, such as urinary bladder

    • Single layer of closely packed cells

    • Several layers of closely packed cells

    Correct Answer
    A. Line stomach and intestines
    Explanation
    The simple columnar epithelium is a type of tissue that lines the stomach and intestines. It is characterized by a single layer of closely packed cells that are tall and narrow, resembling columns. This type of epithelium is specialized for absorption and secretion, which is essential for the digestive function of the stomach and intestines. It provides a large surface area for the efficient absorption of nutrients and the secretion of digestive enzymes. The presence of a single layer of cells allows for efficient exchange of substances between the digestive tract and the bloodstream.

    In the epithelial membranes the mucous is the

    • Tract with opening

    • Skin

    • Body Functions

    • Torsals

    Correct Answer
    A. Tract with opening
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Tract with opening." Epithelial membranes are thin layers of tissue that line various parts of the body. Mucous membranes are a type of epithelial membrane that line the body's tracts with openings, such as the respiratory, digestive, and reproductive tracts. These membranes secrete mucus, which helps to protect and lubricate the openings, trapping foreign particles and preventing them from entering the body. Therefore, mucous is associated with the tract with an opening.

    In the pseudostratified epithelium

    • Often specialized for secretory activity

    • Each cell touches basement membrane

    • Lines the bracheal

    • Cuboidal cells may be grouped into glands

    Correct Answer
    A. Each cell touches basement membrane
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that each cell touches the basement membrane. In pseudostratified epithelium, the cells are arranged in a single layer but appear to be layered due to variations in cell height. However, all cells in this type of epithelium make contact with the basement membrane, which is a thin layer of connective tissue that provides support and nutrients to the cells. This close association with the basement membrane allows for efficient exchange of substances between the cells and the underlying connective tissue.

    All of these are apart of the nervous system except

    • Brain

    • Neurons

    • Neuroglia

    Correct Answer
    A. Brain
    Explanation
    The brain is not a part of the nervous system. It is the central organ of the nervous system and is responsible for processing and coordinating information received from the sensory organs and sending instructions to the rest of the body. Neurons and neuroglia, on the other hand, are both components of the nervous system. Neurons are specialized cells that transmit electrical signals, while neuroglia are supportive cells that provide structural support and insulation to neurons.

    In the epithelial tissue the serous is call the

    • Tract with opening

    • Skin

    • Body Functions

    • Torsal

    Correct Answer
    A. Body Functions
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Body Functions" because the epithelial tissue is responsible for various functions in the body, such as protection, secretion, absorption, and sensation. It forms the outer layer of the skin, lines the internal organs, and covers the body's surfaces. The serous epithelial tissue is a type of epithelium that lines the body cavities and covers the organs within those cavities. It secretes a serous fluid that lubricates and reduces friction between the organs, allowing them to move smoothly. Therefore, the term "Body Functions" accurately describes the role of serous epithelial tissue in the body.
