Epithelial tissue covers the body surface and forms the lining for most internal cavities. The major function of epithelial tissue includes protection, secretion, absorption, and filtration.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Epithelial tissue spreads throughout the body surface covering line body cavities and hollow organs which form the major tissue in the glands. Epithelial tissue covers the outside of the body and lines organs, vessels, and cavities.
  • Endothelium joins with the inner tissue lining which covers the brain, lungs, skin, and the heart. It acts as a barrier protecting the body and the environment and maintains the process of protection, filtration, absorption, excretion, and sensation.  
  • Covering and lining epithelium and the Glandular epithelium which helps in surrounding the glands within the body surface are the characteristics feature in the human body.

zhenek [66]

Nitrofurantoin is antibiotic drug commonly used to treat urinary tract infections in pregnant women because of its safety and effective use (the body quickly filters it out). It is not recommended to be used in late pregnancy due to the potential risk of hemolytic anemia in the newborn.

But, recent studies suggested that there is a possible association between congenital malformations following exposure to nitrofurantoin during the first trimester of pregnancy.

When you listen to your favorite music, what is the order in which the sound approaches and enters your nervous system and is in
kvasek [131]
In the ear, the sound waves enter through the auditory canal and hit the eardrum (tympanic membrane). The eardrum amplifies the sound and the waves move on to the middle ear, where three bones called the ossicles (malleus, incus, and stapes) amplify the sound further and vibrate. Then, the sound waves go to the cochlea where tiny hairs and other receptors turn the sound waves into a nerve impulse. This impulse is sent to the brain via the auditory nerve and interpreted by the brain.

How did Pangea breakup contribute to evolution
swat32
<span>If a geological barrier (like a continent splitting apart) separates a population of primates, then each population will evolve separately to fit the different conditions of their environments.

As a hypothetical example, if one part of Pangea went north, the primates on that part would adapt to cold temperatures. If the other part went toward the equator, those primates would adapt to heat and direct sunlight. Eventually they would evolve into different species over many generations.</span>

What is the correct definition of antibodies?
Softa [21]

Answer: The answer is  C

Explanation:

 Antibodies or otherwise called Immunoglobulin are special protein that are produced by certain lymphocytes which produces antibodies which can affect the invading bacteria or other foreign  bodies called the antigens  or other toxins in a number of ways . Certain antibodies known as agglutinins make bacteria harmless by causing them to clump together. The lysins dissolve the outer coats of bacteria, the antitoxin neutralize the toxin of bacteria  while precipitins precipitate the toxin as insoluble and therefore , convert them to a harmless compound. Antibodies are always produced by the immune system.
