That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
A basement membrane occurs between epithelial and connective tissue. This membrane is a thin, specialized extracellular matrix that provides structural support and acts as a barrier between these two types of tissues. It helps to anchor the epithelial cells to the underlying connective tissue and also regulates the exchange of molecules and nutrients between them. The basement membrane plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and function of epithelial tissues throughout the body.
