Do you know all about cells and tissues found in our body? If so, can you tell what epithelial tissue is and where it originates from? Check out this quiz, and you'll get such informative questions and answers related to this tissue. Epithelial tissue or epithelium forms the outer layer of our skin and is widespread throughout our body. This quiz is really helpful for the students who have just started learning about different types of tissues. Also, it would test their understanding of the overview of the epithelial tissue quiz. Good luck!
Covering --> simple or stratified
Glandular exocrine or endocrine
Pigmented ,spermatogenic , sensory
All of the above
They have apical and basal poles and lateral surfaces as they are polarized
The apical pole might be cover by microvilli, stereocilia or cilia
The epithelial cells are always separated from the basement membrane
They have a lot of junctions with each other and with the basement membrane
The tissue is vascular
It does not regenerate
The tissue is avascular
It has a good regeneration
True, the basal lamina which have two parts lamina lucida and lamina densa
False, the basal lamina composed of two laminas the reticular lamina and the basal lamina which have the lamina lucida and the lamina densa.
Desmosome
Hemidesmosome
Adherent
Tight
Gap
Basal\cone shaped cells
Elongated cells
Columnar cells
Goblet cells
Simple squamous cells
It supporting epithelial cells
It forms a barrier between epithelium and other tissues
It works as a filter which allowing only water, oxygen and small molecules or ions to pass
It provides nourishment to the cells
Basal layer- one layer of cuboidal/columnar cells
Basal layer- two layers of cuboidal/columnar cells
Intermediate- few layers of polygonal cells
Intermediate- one layers of polygonal cells
Surface- few layers of flat cells
Surface- one or two layers of flat cells
True
False
1) lat. stratum basale, 2) lat. stratum spinosum, 3) lat. stratum granulosum, 4) lat. stratum lucidum, 5) lat. stratum corneum
1) lat. stratum spinosum,2) lat. stratum ovarium, 3) lat. stratum perichondrium, 4) lat. stratum basale
1) lat. stratum basale, lat. stratum spinosum, 3) lat. stratum granulosum, 4) lat. stratum lucidum, 5) lat. stratum fasciculus
None of the above
True
False, they lay in the basal layer
Ectoderm ( epidermis, sweat glands and mammary glands)
Mesoderm ( mesothelium and endothelium)
Endoderm (airway epithelium, thyroid, liver cells)
All of the above
Can be found in airway and intestine epithelium
It is an apocrine type secretion
Secrete mucus
Secrete mucus and histamine
Can be found only in the airway
It is a merocrine type secretion
It is a holocrine type secretion
True
False
Duct with two or more branches + secretory portion
Secretory portion + duct
Are found everywhere
All of the above
Wait!
Here's an interesting quiz for you.
