Generally, epithelial cell layers are responsible for separating two fluids. for example, the epithelium of blood vessels in animals separates the blood from the interstitial fluid. what eristic would you expect to see in an epithelium that was specialized for passive diffusion of materials from one fluid to another?
a) a single layer of flattened cells
b) many layers of cells stacked together
c) large, cube-shaped cells
d) loosely connected cells surrounded by an extracellular matrix

A) a single layer of flattened cells

Explanation:

When an epithelium is specialized for the passive diffusion of materials from one fluid to another, it must be a simple epithelium, that is, it has a single layer of cells, and these are flattened. Thus, the diffusion of different substances will be easier (and faster) since it will have to pass through less structures, such as fewer membranes. If it were a stratified epithelium, with many layers of stacked cells, the substance would take a long time and more energy would also be used for its transport. The same happens with the surface to be crossed, if they were large cube-shaped cells, transport would be more difficult and slow, however, being flattened cells these are very thin and there is little surface. An example of this is the endothelium of blood vessels, this is a simple flat epithelium that covers the vessels, so oxygen molecules can be easily exchanged with carbon dioxide in the pulmonary alveoli (which are also formed by flat cells ).

answer:

sequence 1- deletion

                  2- duplication

                  3- insertion

                  4- substitute

                  5- inversion

igneous rocks which formed by the crystallization of magma at the surface of the earth called extrusive rocks. they are characterized by fine-grained textures because the rapid cooling at or near the surface did not provide enough time for large crystals to grow.
