What is the function of the outer layer of the cheek cells?
The outer layer of the cheek cells is made up of non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. Its function is to protect the tissues that lie beneath it from radiation, desiccation, toxins and the invasion by pathogens.
What is the outer covering of fungal cells?

How many layers of tissue does the skin contain?
The skin has two distinct layers. The outer layer is the epidermis. The epidermis is comprised of five layers. The inner layer is the dermis. The dermis is anchored to a subcutaneous layer, but it is not considered part of the skin.
Do fungi cells have a cell wall and if so what type of sugar is it made of?
Answer Yes, true fungi do have a cell wall. They are made of polysaccharide Chitin, the subunit of which is glucosamine(C8H13O5N). Answer In the species of fungi which posses a cell wall the chitin layer is followed by a layer of cellulose made from β-1,3 glucan and a layer of glycoproteins which are mostly conserned with cell to cell interactions. Answer No, fungi have an outer covering that protects the cell from damage. It is made of a compound called oxycolmine (O9-C2-H6). Lol idk

What do you normally call epidermis?

Which structure is a semi-permeable membrane in a cell?
The cell membrane - the outer layer in animal cells and the layer beneath the cell wall in plants that is made up of a double layer of phospolipid molecules. The term semipermeable means that the outer layer only allows certain substances into and out of the cell, not everything.
