Question

question 1 (mandatory) (0.5 points)
epithelial tissues can be classified according to cell shape. ____ epithelial cells are scalelike and flattened.
a) cuboidal
b) columnar
c) squamous
d) transitional

question 2 (mandatory) (0.5 points)
what type of tissue replenishes the body’s supply of red blood cells?
a) hematopoietic tissue
b) adipose tissue
c) ground substance
d) extracellular matrix tissue

Explanation:

Question 1

Squamous epithelial cells are scalelike and flattened. Cuboidal cells are cube - shaped, columnar cells are column - shaped, and transitional cells change shape. So the epithelial cells that are scalelike and flattened are squamous.

Question 2

Hematopoietic tissue is responsible for producing blood cells, including red blood cells. Adipose tissue stores fat, ground substance is part of connective tissue matrix, and extracellular matrix tissue is not involved in red blood cell production. So the tissue that replenishes the body's supply of red blood cells is hematopoietic tissue.

Answer:

C) Squamous
