Which of the following is not a property of an epithelium? Which of the following is not a property of an epithelium? Secreting

an extracellular matrix that prevents tissues from sticking together Serving as a barrier between the inside and the outside of a multicellular organism. Creating a loosely packed area of cells that enable other cells to migrate through. Regulating transport of molecules into and out of a tissue

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).

Count up the number of atoms on each side of the equation below and write this in the chart.
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The equation to this question is unclear. The clear equation is:

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

Please find the number of atoms of each element on the reactant and product side below.

Explanation:

An atom is the smallest indivisible part of an element. The atom retains the chemical properties of the chemical element. In order to ensure that a chemical reaction between molecules and compounds is BALANCED, the number of atoms of each element that makes up the molecule/compound must be the same on both the reactants and products side.

In this case, the chemical reaction involves:

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

1. Carbon atom (C):

Reactants side = 1 atom

Products side = 1 atom

2. Oxygen atom (O):

Reactants side = 4 atoms

Products side = 4 atoms

3. Hydrogen atom (H):

Reactants side = 4 atoms

Products side = 4 atoms

A scientist is observing onion cells and human cheek cells under a microscope. Which observation does she most likely make?
saw5 [17]

The main difference between a plant cell and the animal cell is the presence of cell wall.

In the plant cell, the cell wall is present, but in the animal cell, the cell wall is absent.

Hence, in the onion cells, the cell wall around the cell would be clearly visible, whereas in the case of cheek cell, the cell would only be lined by a cell membrane, a cell wall would not be present.

Further, the plant cell would have the chloroplast, as they perform photosynthesis, but the animal cell would not have chloroplast. Unlike animal cell, the central vacuole in the plant cell is bigger and clearly visible.
