are both flat/thin and have folded membranes
they are thin flat and almost pentagon
This is referred to as the simple squamous epithelium. These cells contact the basement membrane and they are flat and thin.
they are flat cells. they can either be simple (one layer) or stratified (multiple layers)
your body is made of lots of cells. are you flat?

The cheek epithelial cells are flat and irregularly shaped. They are polygonal squamous cells that have a very thin membrane.

These cells are thin and flat. They contract in response to touch or to irritating chemicals. In so doing, they close pores in the sponge.
skin cells are flat, because they are skin cells . your skin is flat right ,so that's why skin cells are flat.
Simple squamous which is only one cell layer think, and stratified squamous which is composed of multiple layers. The best way to remember is to think that to squash something is to flatten it and squash and squamous are similar words.
Because squamous cells are thin and flat which is helpful for diffusion .
Transmission electron microscopy
skin Squamous cells are thin, flat cells that look like fish scales, and are found in the tissue that forms the surface of the skin, the lining of the hollow organs of the body, and the lining of the respiratory and digestive tracts.
