Question

multiple choice 1 point what tissue is this? adipose stratified squamous epithelium hyaline cartilage simple squamous epithelium

Explanation:

To determine the tissue, we analyze each option:

• Adipose tissue stores fat and has a different appearance (fat cells with large lipid droplets), not matching the image.
• Stratified squamous epithelium has multiple cell layers, but the image shows a single layer.
• Hyaline cartilage has a matrix with chondrocytes in lacunae, which is not the case here.
• Simple squamous epithelium consists of a single layer of flat, scale - like cells, which matches the appearance in the image (a single layer of flattened cells).

Answer:

D. simple squamous epithelium
