  • 9 to 12 years (correct)
  • 5 to 8 years
  • 13 to 15 years
  • 16 to 18 years

What is the function of granulosa cells in the primordial follicle?

  • Initiate the meiotic division of the ovum

Why may a layer of columnar cells appear to be stratified in some tissues?

<p>A layer of columnar cells may appear to be stratified due to the placement of nuclei at different levels within the cells.</p> Signup and view all the answers

What are the four basic types of animal tissue, and how does epithelial tissue differ from the other types?

<p>The four basic types of animal tissue are epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. Epithelial tissue differs from the other types as it is composed of compactly packed cells with little intercellular matrix, and it lacks blood or lymph supply.</p> Signup and view all the answers

How can epithelial cells be arranged in terms of layers, and what are the types of arrangements?

<p>Epithelial cells can be arranged as a singular layer of cells called simple epithelium, which includes simple squamous, simple columnar, or simple cuboidal. They can also be arranged in layers of two or more cells deep, known as stratified (layered) or compound, including squamous, columnar, or cuboidal.</p> Signup and view all the answers
