Connective tissue has many functions in the body. one major function of connective tissue is to nourish and cushion the epithelia. the connective tissue also provides a barrier against pathogens that successfully invade the epithelial tissue. where would you most expect to find connective tissue that interacts with epithelial tissue as described above?

The correct answer will be below the epithelium in extra-cellular matrix.

Explanation:

Connective tissue is a basic type of tissue found in the animal cells the main function of which is to connect the different organs.  The connective tissue not only connects the different tissue or organs but also supports the tissues by nourishing it and provide structural integrity to organs.  

The connective tissue is present in the matrix or extra-cellular matrix present at the base of the epithelial membrane or below the membrane made of the fibres, cells and the ground substance.  

Thus, below the epithelium in the extra-cellular matrix is the correct answer.

the answer is false?
