A cell which can form a flat, water proof layer known as the cell membrane is called the epithelial cell.
Protective covering flat shaped epithelial are called squamous cell .
No, simple epithelium does not always consist of a layer of flat cells. Simple epithelium can consist of various cell shapes, including squamous (flat), cuboidal (cube-shaped), and columnar (column-shaped) cells. The choice of cell shape depends on the specific function and location of the epithelium.
The inner vaginal wall is lined by stratified squamous epithelial cells. These cells are layered and flat in shape, which helps protect the vaginal wall from friction and damage.
Saquamous cells are flat cells. Single cell layer of these squamous cells is called saqumous cell epithelium. The stratified epithelium means formed of layers [strata] of cells which may or may not be squamous cells. The functions of these layers are different.
flat, round
A cell which can form a flat, water proof layer known as the cell membrane is called the epithelial cell.
The cheek epithelial cells are flat and irregularly shaped. They are polygonal squamous cells that have a very thin membrane.
Protective covering flat shaped epithelial are called squamous cell .

A squamous epithelial is an epithelium tissue. It is a flat, scale like cell and can have either a single layer or multiple layers.
As flat as a pancake

As flat as paper, if you want
I think that the bottom of epithelial cells is closest to blood vessels (if one were to look at a flat 2D image. Endothelial cells similarly would have the top of the cell closest to blood vessels.

No.
