2. Pseudostratified Ciliated Columnar Epithelium
3. Stratified squamous epithelium
4. Simple Squamous Epithelium
5. All of these

1) Has layers consisting of a basal lamina, basal surface and apical surface

2) Lines the lumen of blood vessels, is leaky

3) Lines the trachea of air breathing animals

4) The type of epithelial tissue found in your mouth, is resistant to abrasion, the cells are multilayered

Answer 1

1.Epithelial tissue: These are continuous sheet of cells that lines the internal surface and covers the external surface of the body. It also forms much of the glandular tissue of the body. Functions of the epithelial tissue include protection, absorption , and secretion

All epithelia share some important structural and functional features.The apical surface faces the lumen or external environment, the basal surface attaches to the basement membrane. The basal lamina provides an attachment site for the epithelium.
