Vedclass · Answer

(B) The provided figure shows a tissue composed of more than one layer of cells,which is characteristic of compound epithelium. Compound epithelium is made up of more than one layer (multi-layered) of cells and thus has a limited role in secretion and absorption. Their main function is to provide protection against chemical and mechanical stresses. The label '$a$' points to the multiple layers of cells present in the tissue. Therefore,the correct identification is Compound epithelium - multilayered cells.

Column $I$ (Terms)	Column $II$ (Features)
$A$. Exocrine gland	$I$. They help to stop substances from leaking across a tissue

$C$. Tight junctions	$III$. They perform cementing to keep neighbouring cells together
$D$. Adhering junctions	$IV$. Secretes mucus,saliva,earwax,oil,milk,digestive enzymes and other cell products

Identify the given figure and the indicated part '$a$'.
