Accepted Answer

Covering and lining surfaces for protection, absorption, and secretion

Question 4

A biopsy of a patient's lung reveals a single layer of flat cells lining the alveoli. Which type of epithelium is this?

Accepted Answer

Simple squamous epithelium

Question 5

Which of the following is a function of the basal lamina in epithelial tissue?

Question 7

Which connective tissue fiber type provides the greatest tensile strength?

Accepted Answer

Collagen fibers

Question 8

A patient presents with swelling (edema) in their ankle after an injury. Which type of connective tissue is primarily responsible for soaking up the excess fluid?

Accepted Answer

Areolar connective tissue

Question 9

Which of the following best describes the difference between 'blast' and 'cyte' cells in connective tissue?
