epithelial tissue cell is anchored by a basement membrane.
a basement membrane occurs between the epithelial tissue and the connective tissue
No not all cells touch the basement membrane. Pseudostratified epithelium is composed of cells that touch the basement membrane.
Basement membrane
basement membrane
Epithelial tissue has a free surface, a basement membrane, and little intercellular material.
Basement membrane - which is a thin layer of fibres.
it is thin because it is a poo and it has sex with people!!!
Squamous cell carcinoma
No. All epithelial sheets rest upon and are supported by connective tissue Just deep to the basal lamina is the reticular lamina a layer of extracellular material containing a fine network of collagen protein fiber that belongs to the underlying connective tissue. Together the two laminae form the basement membrane.
The term "basal lamina" is usually used with electron microscopy, while the term "basement membrane" is usually used with light microscopy. The structure known as the basement membrane in light microscopy refers to the stained structure anchoring an epithelial layer. This encompasses the basal lamina secreted by epithelial cells and typically a reticular lamina secreted by other cells.
