46
Q

Epithelial Tissue

A

Superficial layer of mucous membrane and cells that make up the skin and lines all cavities/passageways
Lacks of intercellular material

47
Q

A

Support tissue with large amount of intercellular material or matrix

48
Q

Muscular Tissue

A

Specialized tissue that can be stimulated and made to contract.
Muscular tissue is contractile

49
Q

A

Specialized tissue whose role is communication between cells.
Specialized for communication
Consists of neurons or nerve cells
Functions to transfer information

50
Q

Roles of epithelial tissue

A

Acts as barrier against hostile agents such as infections organisms
Prevents dehydration and fluid loss

51
Q

Functions of epithelial tissue

A

Covers surface of the body
Covers lining of cavities and passageways
Shortage of intercellular material

52
Q

Why does Mucous membrane arise from epithelium?
