Select an answer and submit. For keyboard navigation, use the up/down arrow keys to select an answer. a b C d Epithelial cells line the outer surfaces (skin) of the body. Epithelial cells overexpress signaling pathways that drive the cell cycle forward. Epithelial cells come into frequent contact with cancer-causing substances from the environment. Epithelial cells are continually turned over and thus continue to divide.arrow_forward
- Bone marrow is a soft, spongy, connective tissue found inside bones. Bone marrow contains stem cells, which can generate new blood cells and, therefore, can treat many diseases of the blood. In the past, extracting bone marrow from a donor required anesthesia and a long, large needle. The process often discouraged people from signing up to be donors. A process called apheresis has made the process much less painful and invasive. In apheresis, the donor's blood passes through a sterile line into the machine. Once the blood is inside the machine, the bone marrow stem cells are extracted, and the remaining blood is returned to the donor. Donors typically only experience minor discomfort from the needles used and the loss of electrolytes. Describe how you think this advance in biotechnology will affect individuals and society. Be sure to include any potential medical or ethical issues that could arise from this new practice.arrow_forwardEpithelial tissue is an important part of the body as a covering of surfaces and as a lining of the internal hollow organs. Discuss how histologists can use visualization of epithelial tissue to help with diagnosis of diseases in different parts of the body.arrow_forwardexplains how the three characteristics below affect the function of this cell, its system or / and the body as a whole. Make the connection between the structures and functions of the body. 1.

A. Erythrocytes B. Unipotent stem cells C. Platelets D. Pluripotential stem cellsarrow_forwardOne of the main functions of connective tissue is to integrate organs and organ systems in the body.

- An individual is running to catch their ride share vehicle when they trip and fall with their hands outstretched. The individual looks up and notices an abrasion from the fall on the palms of their hands but there is no blood. What is the reason for the lack of bleeding? A. The epithelium is avascular (without blood vessels), so the abrasion must not have penetrated all 5 layers on the palm to reach the vascularized (having blood vessels) basement membrane. B. The epithelium is avascular (without blood vessels), so the abrasion must not have penetrated all 3 layers on the palm of the hand to reach the vascularized (having blood vessels) basement membrane. C. The epithelium is avascular (without blood vessels), so the abrasion must not have penetrated all 4 layers on the palm to reach the vascularized (having blood vessels) basement membrane. D. The epithelium is avascular (without blood vessels), so the abrasion must not have penetrated all 6 layers on…arrow_forward__________ is the most widely distributed and abundant tissue type. a. connectiveb. epithelialc. nervous d. musclee. skinarrow_forwardWhich epithelial tissue type lines the trachea (air tube)?a. simple columnar epitheliumb. pseudostratified ciliated columnar epitheliumc. simple squamous epitheliumd. stratified squamous epitheliumarrow_forward
