Answer 21

Exocrine and salivary gland
function in protection and secetion

Question 22

Explain pseudostratified epithelium

Answer 22

One layer of cells but the nuclei are at different levels giving the appearence of stratified epithelium

Question 23

What are the functions of Covering epithelial tissue

Answer 23

• Covers the body surface including internal cavities
• Creates a barrier between internal connective tissue and external environment
  *Regulate the movement of substances
  *Physical protection

Question 24

Where can we find pseudostratified columnar epithelium

Answer 24

Trachea with cilia as the apical specialisation

Question 25

Classification among the two types epithelial tissue is based on what, and which are the classifications

Answer 25

The classification is based on the number of layers and shape of the cells and if there is any apical specialisation present simple, stratified and psuedostratified squamous, columnar, cuboidal and transitional

Question 26

What is the function of the simple cuboidal epithelium

Answer 26

Absorption and secretion
