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.
just like any other cell membrane it holds the cell together, and controls what gets in and out of the cell!
Human cells do not contain cell wall. The outer most layer of human cells including those at the cheek is cell membrane. Cell walls are only applicable to plants to keep them standing.
No the outer layer of the skin is not made of living cells. it is made of dead cells.
Because the cells on the outer layer are dead, so they come off easily.
When the outer layer of cells covering an organism thickens.
its called the epidermis
The outer layer of a leaf is called the epidermis (from a Greek word meaning "over-skin"). Its function is to protect the insides of the leaf, which carry out the chemical reaction known as photosynthesis.
No the outer layer of the skin is not made of living cells. it is made of dead cells.
because cheek cells are part of an animal cell so it cannot be used and it is specialised whereas stem cells are part of a planet cell so it can be used a lot of times and it is not specialised
Because the cells on the outer layer are dead, so they come off easily.
The cells found at the outer layer of your skin (e.g. on your arm) are dead. It's easier to get a good look at the cell of the mucous membranes.
The outer part of the leaf is called the cuticle. It is a waxy layer and does not comprise of live cells. It's function is to prevent the leaf from desiccation (drying out).
A fact about cheek cells is that they make up you whole cheek. Another fact is that the cheek cell looks like a circle with an outer circle.
A Cell Wall is the outer non-living layer only found in plant cells. It is flexiable to let thing in and out.

The epidermis of a carrot is the outer part of the root. This part is usually what people peel off.
