Yes, all epithelial exhibit what is called apical-basal polarity
terminal cell : provide polarity to the embryo and embryo develops here.. (apical cell) basal cell : develops suspensor which anchors embryo to the endosperm and serve as a nutrient producer.
Epithelial tissue lines body surfaces and cavities as have apical and basement sides.
1. Cellularity: composed entirely of cells 2. Polarity: Apical vs. Basal Surface 3. Specialized Contacts: special cell junctions (Tight, Gap and Desmosomes) 4. Avascular but Innervated: contains NO blood vessels but has nerve endings 5. Regeneration: high regenerative capacity 6. Deep in Epithelia, there's always Connective Tissue
an apical cell is the top layer of the epidermis.

YES
Epithelial tissue lines body surfaces and cavities as have apical and basement sides.
By diffusion or absorption across the apical or basal surfaces of Epithelium.
An epithelial cell can be divided into basal and apical functional regions.
The cell parts of an epithelial cell include; apical and basal regions and a basement membrane (basal lamina). Epithelial cells are held together by desmosomes, adherens, tight junctions and gap junctions.
Multiple cell layers whose apical cells are flattened are stratified squamous. These are epithelial cells arranged in layers upon a basal membrane.

Sodium Potassium pumps are located on your body cells. This pump is used as a type of active transport to let these ions into and out of your cell.
Epithelia tissues consists of closely-packed cells arranged in one or more flat sheets. Their apical surface is exposed to the external environmental while their basal surface is attached to the tissue beneath it. The connective tissues link the epithelial cells to other structures. Nutrients travel to the epithelia tissues via diffusion through the capillaries.
apical pulse is actually the heartbeat
