grouped together What type of tissue is the student observing?

All of the following are characteristics of epithelial tissue EXCEPT: contains matrix avascularity covers or lines structures forms glands
The aponeuroses seen in the anterior abdominal wall need to withstand forces of tension mainly in one direction. On the other hand, the tissue surrounding joints are likely to experience tension in multiple planes. What tissue would you expect to find in the joints? : Dense regular connective tissue Areolar connective tissue Dense irregular connective tissue Reticular connective tissue
Describe two structural properties shared by all types of epithelia (but not shared with other types of tissue):
