Study Notes
Mitotic Index of Epithelial Tissues
- The mitotic index of epithelial tissues is typically low, indicating that these tissues have a slow rate of cell division.
- A low mitotic index is characteristic of epithelial tissues, which are normally non-proliferative or slowly proliferative.
- Epithelial tissues have a low mitotic index due to their role in protection, secretion, and absorption, rather than rapid growth or repair.
