*Epithelial tissue

QuestionAnswer
Epithelial tissue covers and lines? Covers and lines all spaces (cavities)NOT Joints.--Cells are closely packed together with very little extracelluar fluid.
Epithelial tissue cells are attatched to? Underlying Connective Tissue.via basement membrane. --Avascular?= No Blood vessels.
Epithelial Tissue has? Good nerve supply and a high mitotic rate.- Some form glands and lines ducts.
Exocrine and Indocrine Glands are made up of? Epithelial Tissue.
General Structure of Epitelial Tissue 1.Apical Surface- Lines the space---2.Epithelial cells may be single or multiple layers---3.Basement Membranes hold the Epithelial cells to the underlying Connective Tissue.
Basemnet membrane is made up of two Layers? Basal Lamina and below Reticular Lamina.

Exocrine Glands-cells secrete a product into a Duct or into a body cavity or to the outside of the skin.Ex Sweat, Saliva, Digestive Enzymes.exist as unicellular glands or Multicellular Glands.
Glandular Epithelium-Glands are derived from Epithelial cells that develop below the surface during development.Two types? #2?
