Q

What is the general character of the epithelial tissue?

A
  • The epithelial cells rest on a thin basement membrane
    separates them from the underlying connective tissue.
  • Avascular (no blood supply) but receive nutrition by
    diffusion from underlying connective tissue.
  • Nerve cells are present.
  • Develop from 3 germ layers. ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm
  • Continuous degeneration & Regeneration
21

formed of flask shaped
cells lying in the
concavity of the top
ones
