The correct answer is: Creating a loosely packed area of cells that enable other cells to migrate through

There are four types of tissue in humans: epithelilal, muscular, connective and nervous. Epithelial tissue or epithelium lines the outer surfaces of organs and blood vessels but also the inner surfaces of cavities in different internal organs. Functions of epithelial cells include:

  • Secretion-e.g. hormones
  • Protection-from radiation, toxins, pathogens
  • Transcellular transport-exchange of chemicals between body cavities and tissue below them
  • Sensing-e.g when the cells have cilia for mechano or thermosensation.

Depending on cell shape, epithelium can be divided into categories: squamous epithelium, cuboidal epithelium, columnar epithelium. Depending on layer number, all of them can be subdivided into: simple (one layer of cells) or stratified (with more layers).

3. What are two major phases of cell division?
Igoryamba
3# Interphase is divided into three phases: G1, S, and G2. The subsequent mitotic (M) phase consists of two processes: mitosis, the process of nuclear division, and cytokinesis, division of the cell's cytoplasm. Each mitotic phase results in the formation of two cells that are genetically identical to the parent.

Answer/Explanation:

Green plants can synthesise their own food by using light energy from the sun to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, with the release of oxygen. This process is called photosynthesis, and it occurs in specialized organelles called chloroplasts.  The first stages of photosynthesis require light energy, and are often called the light-dependent reactions. The next stages occur in the absence of light energy, called the light-independent reactions.

In the light-dependent reactions, chlorophyll in the chloroplasts absorb light, converting into stored chemical energy in the form of NADPH and ATP. The high energy electron produced by light absorption travels down an electron transport chain, driving the pumping of hydrogen ions and creating a gradient. This provides the energy to produce ATP by ATP synthase

This process is used to provide for the light-independent reactions to  form carbohydrates from carbon dioxide during a process called the Calvin cycle. The carbohydrates produced during photosynthesis are broken down during cellular respiration to generate ATP.
