\After a wound has healed, the scar that remains is nearly entirely composed of
________ fibers. - ANS - answer: collagen
\All lining and covering membranes consist of
A) an epithelium only.
B) a serosa.

\An ________ gland releases its products through ducts onto body surfaces or
into body cavities. - ANS - Answer: exocrine
\An epithelium in which the basal layer of cells is cuboidal and the apical layer
has cells that are thin, flat and irregular in shaper is a ________ epithelium.
A) stratified squamous
B) simple columnar
C) stratified cuboidal
D) simple cuboidal - ANS - a) stratified squamous
\Areolar connective tissue forms the lamina propria of mucous membranes.
[true/false] - ANS - true

\Briefly outline the steps of tissue repair in a skin wound. Include in your
response the terms organization, granulation, and regeneration. - ANS - Answer:
1) An inflammatory response increases blood flow to the site of injury, which
promotes the formation of a blood clot. 2) During the "organization" phase of
tissue repair, blood vessels invade the clot and allow fibroblasts to arrive. These
cells deposit collagen to tie the sides of the wound together with granulation
tissue. 3) Macrophages dispose of bacteria, dead cells, and debris. 4)
Regeneration involves the replacement of epithelium over the surface of the scar
tissue.
