Characteristics of epithelia include all of the following except

Characteristics of epithelia include all of the following except extracellular matrix.

Explanation:

The epithelial tissue is typically identified as having six characteristics and they are, it is made of cells. It contains cells joined by specialized contacts. Epithelial tissue has distinct upper and lower surfaces and is not supported by blood cells. It retains the ability to regenerate, and it  is supported by connective tissue.

It has also a feature called cellularity which means it is made completely of cells and there is no space that exist it is connected too close. Whereas in connective tissue, an area of non living matter exists in between the cells and that is called extra cellular matrix which is found in between the cells in the connective tissue.

hey bro i looked it up on google the structure of the eye-spot in euglena viridie, e. ehrenbergii, and phacus pyriyorme is not as franzé haa described it. the so-called “crystal body” and “lens bodies” were not found in any of the individuals of the species examined by me. as earlier observers have stated, the eye-spot consists simply of a mass of pigment granules arranged in a single layer, and probably embedded in a protoplasmic framework, but the latter could not be seen, and its presence was only inferred from the fact that the pigment granules must be held together in some way, thd the eye-spot as a whole is capable of expansion, and that the pigment granules can be separated from each other.

hope this   and an i get brainlsiest
