Structure of epithelial tissue (8)

A
  • closely packed cells in single or multiple layers - very limited amount of metric material - apical surface - basal surface - lateral surface - membranous is attached to a basement membrane (functions to resist shearing and tearing forces, supports epithelium) - avascular: no direct blood supply, oxygen and nutrients must diffuse from underlying connective tissue - capable of reproducing itself- high rate of regenteration because stem cells present in most epithelial tissue
