Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 3CAL
During a biology lab, Erin used a cotton swab to remove some tissue from the inner side of her cheek. She then placed the tissue on a slide to examine it under the microscope.
3. Why was the tissue able to be removed so easily without causing injury to the rest of Erin’s cheek?
- a. The tissue contained abundant amounts of ground substance to keep the tissue puffy and relatively intact.
- b. The tissue contained multiple layers of cells, so removing a few cells wouldn’t harm the rest of the tissue.
- c. The tissue contained lots of blood vessels, so blood filled any gaps left when the original cells were removed.
- d. The remaining cells were interconnected by intercalated discs, which formed a strong bond between the cells.
