How are epithelial tissues nourished?

They get nutrients from the basement membrane via diffusion

If an epithelial tissue is stratified

it has more than one layer of cells

Simple Cuboidal tissue

is very good at secretion and absorption

1
How are epithelial tissues nourished?
They don't need no nutrients.
they have blood vessels which bring nutrients
They get nutrients from the basement membrane via diffusion
They get nutrients from the free surface via osmosis

A defining characteristic of transitional tissue
is that is fake
is the top layer of the skin (epidermis)
only found in the respiratory tract
is that it can be stretched

Simple Cuboidal tissue
is used mostly for protection
is found in the respiratory tract
has many layers of cuboidal cells

26
Why must epithelial cells be able to divide quickly and frequently?
all of these
They experience rubbing and erosion with the outside
They are the first line of defense and need to be replaced
They are open to a free surface
