Question

5. Would the bruises on the dead man have formed in the epithelia

or in the underlying connective tissue? Can you explain why?

Answer 1

The Answer is: underlying connective tissue

Explanation: bruise is said to be blood or bleeding under the skin as a result of trauma. Bruises form under the skin while epithelial tissues are on the body surface and as such the bruise on the dead man is in the underlying connective tissue.
