This answer follows the four-option Pearson version of the question. The target phrase uses “epithelia,” while the source prompt uses “epithelial tissue”; they refer to the same tissue category. Other online versions use different choices, and those choices are not part of this page. “Avascular” follows the textbook description that epithelial tissue is nearly completely avascular; it does not mean the supporting connective tissue lacks vessels.
