Chapter 4, Problem 4CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The properties applied to the epithelial tissue among the presence of blood vessels, regeneration and joining of the cells by the lateral contacts.
Introduction:
The epithelial tissues have different characteristics like this tissue is supported by the connective tissues and having the capability of regeneration. The tight junctions are present in between the cells which helps in maintaining the epithelial polarity.
