How does a simple epithelial tissue differ from a stratified epithelial tissue in structure?

Their apparent number of layers;simple epithelium with a single-layer offer less protection than Stratified epithelium having multiple layers. Also, simple epithelium functions in moving materials across its surface.

∙ 14y agoThe difference is in the cell layers. Simple is ,as it sounds, a single layer of cells, and stratified epithelium is two or more cell layers that are stacked one on top of the other.

What are some examples of tissue?
Kleenex, Puffs, Puffs Plus and so on.
What is epithelial classification?
Epithelial tissue is a major category of tissue which lines all our body surfaces. It can be classified by a combination of shape (squamous, cuboidal, columnar) and layers (simple, stratified, pseudostratified).
How is epithelial tissue classified according to the number of cell layers?
There are four categories: Squamous â?? Cells are flat. Cuboidal â?? Cells are boxlike, with same height as width. Columnar â?? The cells are taller than wide. Transitional epithelium â?? Cells can vary from full/balloon-like to flattened, according to the distention of the organ they line. The three classifications by cell layers are: Simple - one cell thickness; Stratified - by appearance of uppermost cells; Pseudostratified - columnar structure that appears stratified, but isn't, due to the crowding of adjacent cells.
Is simple squamous the epithelium best adapted for a body surface subject to abraision?
stratified squamous
What kind of epithelial tissue is characterized by being only one cell layer thick?
Simple For example, simple cuboidal epithelium A layered version would be Stratified cuboidal epithelium
How do simple and epithelial tissue differ?
simple tissue has only one layer of cells stratified has 2 to 20 or layers of cells the deepest layer attached to the basement membrane
How do the shape of epithelial cells differ from cheek cells?
Epithelial cells of the Pulmonary surface, + epithelial duct elements of Glands, Ciliary epithelium, esophageal, germinal {of Ovaries}, glandular and membranous: Cornea, larynx, nasopharynx, small intestine, stomach, olfactory, pigments of the Retina. As well, here are the rest: Pseudostratified, seminiferous, simple, simple columnar, simple cubical, simple cuboidal, simple squamous, stratified, stratified columnar, stratified cuboidal, stratified squamous, surface - of stomach - , and transitional.
What kind of epithelium is in the epidermis?
stratified squamous epithelial and simple cuboidal epethilium.
What are the types of epithelium?
Epithelial Cells of the pulmonary surface, and the epithelial duct elements of Glands; Ciliary epithelium, esophageal, germinal {of Ovaries}, glandular and membranous; The Cornea, larynx, nasopharynx, small intestine, stomach, olfactory, and pigments of the Retina; and Central to All is the Lining Of Capillary Branches. As well, here are the rest: Pseudostratified, seminiferous, simple, simple columnar, simple cubical, simple cuboidal, simple squamous, stratified, stratified columnar, stratified cuboidal, stratified squamous, surface - of stomach - , and transitional.
How do simple and stratified epithelial tissues differ?
So, think of parts of the body where stratified and simple epithelium line.The stomach and small intestine, for example, are lined with simple epithelial tissue, but the skin, vagina and oesophagus are composed of stratified epithelial tissue.So areas where there isn't a huge amount of movement required are lined with simple epithelium (the stomach just secretes substances and the small intestine absorbs and secretes; absorption is made easier by having just the one layer). But the skin, vagina and oesophagus have to deal with a lot mechanical stress and so simple epithelium wouldn't be suitable which is why so many layers are needed; hence they are composed of stratified epithelium.Stratifed epithelia are two or more cells thick and simple epitheium are one cell thick
What is the three types of epithelial tissues?
there are simple and complex epithelial!they are:Cuboidal EpitheliumColumnar EpitheliumCiliated Columnar EpitheliumGlandular EpitheliumStratified EpitheliumSquamous epithelium

What epithelial tissue is more than one layer thick and surface cells are flattened?
stratified squamous epithelium
