Question 1

Which of the following is NOT a primary function of epithelial tissue?

Accepted Answer

Transporting oxygen in the blood

Question 2

A researcher observes a tissue sample with cells that have an apical surface exposed to a cavity and a basal surface attached to a basal lamina. What type of tissue is being observed?

Accepted Answer

Epithelial tissue

Question 3

Which specialized structure on the apical surface of epithelial cells increases surface area for absorption?

Accepted Answer

Microvilli

Question 4

Which of the following best describes the basement membrane in epithelial tissue?

Accepted Answer

A structure composed of basal and reticular lamina that reinforces the epithelial sheet

Question 5

Why are epithelial tissues avascular but innervated?

Accepted Answer

They lack blood vessels and receive nutrients by diffusion, but are supplied by nerve fibers

Question 6

Which type of epithelial tissue is most likely to be found lining the alveoli of the lungs, where rapid diffusion of gases occurs?

Accepted Answer

Simple squamous epithelium

Question 7

A gland that releases its product by exocytosis into a duct is classified as which type of gland?

Accepted Answer

Multicellular exocrine gland

Question 8

Which connective tissue fiber type provides the greatest tensile strength?

Accepted Answer

Collagen fibers

Question 9

What is the main difference between 'blast' and 'cyte' cells in connective tissue?

Accepted Answer

'Blast' cells are immature and actively secrete matrix, while 'cyte' cells are mature and maintain the matrix

Question 10

Which connective tissue type is most likely to be found in tendons, providing resistance to pulling forces in one direction?

Accepted Answer

Dense regular connective tissue

Question 11

A patient with a deficiency in chondroitin sulfate and hyaluronic acid would most likely have problems with which tissue type?

Accepted Answer

Cartilage

Question 12

Which cell type in connective tissue is responsible for initiating local inflammatory responses by releasing histamine?

Accepted Answer

Mast cells

Question 13

Which of the following equations best represents the relationship between the number of cell layers ($$n) $$and the classification of epithelial tissue?

Accepted Answer

$$n = 1$$ \rightarrow$$ simple epithelium; n$$ \u003e 1$$ \rightarrow$$ stratified epithelium

Question 14

Which connective tissue type is characterized by a hard matrix due to inorganic salts and functions in support and protection?

Accepted Answer

Bone

Question 15

Which of the following best describes the function of areolar connective tissue?

Accepted Answer

Supports and binds other tissues, holds body fluids, and defends against infection

Question 16

A patient presents with a disorder affecting the myofilaments actin and myosin. Which tissue type is most likely to be impaired?

Accepted Answer

Muscle tissue

Question 17

Which of the following is a correct pairing of tissue type and its primary function?

Accepted Answer

Muscle tissue: movement

Question 18

Which equation best describes the diffusion of nutrients to avascular epithelial tissue from underlying connective tissue, where $$J is $$the flux, $$D is $$the diffusion coefficient, and $$\Delta C is $$the concentration gradient?

Accepted Answer

$$J = D 	imes \Delta C$$

Question 19

Which membrane type lines body cavities that are open to the exterior, such as the digestive and respiratory tracts?

Accepted Answer

Mucous membrane

Question 20

Which supporting cell type in nervous tissue is responsible for insulating and protecting neurons?

Accepted Answer

Neuroglia (glial cells)
