Expert Solution

Step 1

According to our guideline we can answer only the first question (upto first three subparts). So, upload the other questions separately.

The tissue that forms the outer covering of animal body and the outer and inner covering of all internal organs is called the epithelial tissue or epithelium.

Epithelial tissue is present mainly into regions- external covering of the body (skin) and in the walls (both inner and outer) of all internal organs.
