How does connective tissue differ from other tissue types?

a)

Connective tissue is primarily responsible for transmitting nerve impulses.

b)

Connective tissue is the only type of tissue that forms the outer layer of the skin.

c)

Connective tissue is mainly involved in the absorption of nutrients.

d)

Connective tissue provides support and binds other tissues, characterized by a large extracellular matrix.

a)

To produce hormones for growth regulation.

b)

To provide structural support to organs.

c)

To store energy for muscle contraction.

d)

The function of nervous tissue in animals is to transmit signals and facilitate communication within the body.

10.

Explain the difference between simple and stratified epithelial tissue.

a)

Stratified epithelial tissue is found only in the skin, while simple is found in the lungs.

b)

Simple epithelial tissue is thicker than stratified epithelial tissue.

c)

Simple epithelial tissue has one layer of cells, while stratified epithelial tissue has multiple layers.

d)

Simple epithelial tissue has multiple layers of cells, while stratified has one layer.
