Vedclass · Answer

(B) Simple epithelium consists of a single layer of cells that function as a lining for body cavities,ducts,and tubes. Because these cells are closely packed and fitted together like tiles of a mosaic with very little intercellular matrix,they form a continuous,protective sheet. This tight arrangement minimizes the friction and mechanical stress between individual cells,making the normal wear and tear of these cells negligible under standard physiological conditions.

$(a)$ Ciliated epithelium	Bronchioles and Fallopian tubes
$(b)$ Compound epithelium	Ducts of salivary glands
$(c)$ Dense regular connective tissue	Tendons and ligaments
$(d)$ Areolar tissue	Found in skin
