The following problem solving assessment is presented in a multiple-choice format. Each choice should be considered individually and an argument should be written for accepting or rejecting it. Since the problem has one best answer, there should be one argument for acceptance and four for rejection. For each response, you must first state whether you are accepting or rejecting that statement. Then, you must write a detailed explanation why you accept or reject each of the choices. PROBLEM: There are several types of epithelial tissues found in or on the body. One type is called keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. Which of the following would be correct about this particular type of epithelium? A. It lines most of the digestive tract. B. It forms the walls of the air sacs of the lungs. C. It forms the outermost layer of the skin. D. It comprises the endothelium and mesothelium. E. It forms the lining of the kidney tubules.

1) Analysis of a glandular secretion indicates that it contains some DNA, RNA, and membrane components such as phospholipids. What mechanism of secretion does this indicate, and why? 2) Jim and Pam are at the beach soaking up the sunlight when Pam notices that Jim's feet are very calloused and hers are not. What would cause Jim's feet to be calloused, while Pam's are not? 3) What type of epithelium would you expect to find lining the urinary bladder? Explain your answer. 4) During a lab practical, a student examines a tissue that is composed of a densely packed epithelium composed of square-shaped cells in a single layer. The epithelia are often cut into circles, and sometimes into parallel rows. What organ is the student most likely observing? 5) Many medications can be administered transdermally by applying patches that contain the medication to the surface of the skin. These patches can be attached anywhere on the skin except the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. Why? 6) In a condition known as sunstroke, the patient appears flushed, the skin is warm and dry, and the body temperature rises dramatically. Explain these observations based on what is known concerning the role of the skin in thermoregulation.
