A) The connective tissue would have widely spaced cells; the epithelial tissue would have tightly packed cells.
B) The epithelial tissue would line a surface; the connective tissue would not be a surface layer but may be closely associated with the surface epithelial layer.
C) The connective tissue would have an extensive network of blood vessels; the epithelial tissue would be avascular.
D) Connective tissue would have few cells compared to the amount of extracellular matrix (ECM) ; the epithelial tissue would have many cells relative to ECM.
