Question

the tissue type found as coverings, linings, and glands is:
nervous tissue.
epithelial tissue.
connective tissue.
muscle tissue.
question 22
simple cuboidal epithelia are typically associated with the functions of secretion and absorption.
true
false
question 23
a single - celled layer of epithelium that forms the lining of serous membranes is:
simple transitional.
simple columnar.
simple cuboidal.
simple squamous.

Explanation:

Question 1 (Tissue type as coverings, linings, glands)

Epithelial tissue functions as coverings, linings, and in glands. Nervous tissue transmits signals, connective tissue supports, muscle tissue moves. So epithelial tissue is correct.

Simple cuboidal epithelia have cells in a single layer (cuboidal shape) and are known for secretion (e.g., in glands) and absorption (e.g., in kidney tubules). So the statement is True.

Simple squamous epithelium is a single - celled layer (squamous - flat cells) and lines serous membranes (e.g., pleural, peritoneal membranes). Simple transitional is for stretchable areas, simple columnar for absorption/secretion in digestive, simple cuboidal for secretion/absorption in kidney etc.

Answer:

B. epithelial tissue.
