Answer:

The answer is TRUE. Most cnidarians have two layers of cells that are organized into tissues: Epidermis and Gastrodermis.

Explanation:

Cnidarians' basic body organization is simple: It is a hollow structure composed of two cellular layers:

epidermis, which is the external layer,
gastrodermis which is the internal layer, composed by lining cells in the gastrovascular cavity.

Between these two there is the mesoglea that varies from a thin, non-cellular membrane to a mucous, fibrous, thick membrane with amebocytes.

Epidermis and gastrodermis originate from two embryonic tissues, the ectoderm, and the endoderm.

The epidermis is formed of five types of cells with different functions: epitheliomuscular, interstitial, cnidoblasts, secretors, and sensorial.

The gastrodermis is composed of nutritive cells, glandular enzymatic cells, secretory cells, and sensorial cells.

What is the relationship between Microvilli of gut, epithelium, glucose, circulatory system, capillary fenestrations, glucose/AT

IgorLugansk [536]

All of these are the components of the catabolic pathway or using the nutrients to provide energy from it. The breakdown of food molecules begins in the mouth and continues to the small intestine. The nutrients are absorbed through the wall of the small intestine which. The surface of the intestine wall is specially modified (contains a huge number of hair-like structures-microvilli) which increase nutrient absorption. (more area for nutrients to be absorbed). The digestive tract is lined with mucosa which consists of simple columnar epithelial cells. Monomer subunits of the food, like glucose are than absorbed and diffused down a concentration gradient into capillary blood. Glucose is converted into pyruvate molecules through the process of glycolysis. Catabolism ends in the major energy-converting organelle, the mitochondrion, where the ATP is produced.
