Question

Select the option that lacks blood supply

• A. Biceps
• B. Bones
• C. Neural tissue
• D. Alveolar epithelium

Answer 1

The correct option is D Alveolar epithelium

The alveolus is made up of alveolar epithelium type 1 cells and alveolar epithelium type 2 cells, and capillary cells. The epithelial tissue does not contain blood vessels and thus has no blood supply. The epithelial tissues get oxygen and necessary nutrients from connective tissues by diffusion.

So, the correct answer is option D, Alveolar epithelium.
