Question

Epithelial tissue is organized into which of the two general types of structures
A)cells and cell walls
B)epithelial sheets and secretory glands
C)ducts and nuclei
D)protective and absorptive

Accepted Answer

Epithelial tissue is organized into two general types of structures: epithelial sheets and secretory glands. Epithelial sheets are layers of tightly packed cells that cover the surface of the body or line internal organs and cavities. Secretory glands are structures that produce and secrete substances such as hormones or enzymes. Option A is incorrect because epithelial tissue does not have cell walls. Option C is incorrect because ducts and nuclei are not types of structures organized by epithelial tissue. Option D is incorrect because protective and absorptive are not the two general types of structures organized by epithelial tissue.
