Detailed explanation-1: -In addition to coordinating cell behavior, basement membranes also directly regulate tissue shape through patterned physical constrictions.
Detailed explanation-2: -As seen with the electron microscope, the basement membrane is composed of two layers, the basal lamina and the reticular lamina.
Detailed explanation-3: -It encompasses two separate processes: regeneration and replacement. Regeneration refers to a type of healing in which new growth completely restores portions of damaged tissue to their normal state.
Detailed explanation-4: -The basement membrane is formed by a mixture of molecules, including type IV collagen (i.e., the structural protein found in the basement membrane, the lens of the eye, and the cochlea of the ear) primarily and laminin (i.e., a glycoprotein, or protein that contains oligosaccharide chains).
