Where in the body are epitelial cells located?
Epithial cells lines the skin mostly, but it can also be found in places like lungs and inside of the mouth.
Why are cheek cells easy to collect by scraping inside of mouth?
Cheek cells are epithelial cells (Skin cells) and with all the things going on in your mouth, scraping cells with a toothpick would simply make the cells "fall off" onto the toothpick for sampling. (Epithelial cells are easy to collect)
What is oral epithelium?
Oral epithelium is the skin or skin cells in your mouth. For example, if a doctor rubs the inside of your cheek with a Q-tip and puts it under a microscope, the sample can contain those cells.
What organelle do you think would be numerous inside the cells of your mouth that break down food?

How cheek cell are adapted to perform their function?
Cheek cells are made up of squamous epithelium , these are tightly arranged and helps protect against bacterial invasion. Human cheek cells are a type of epithelial cell that lines the interior of the mouth. The function of the human cheek cells is to secrete mucin, which maintains moisture in the mouth to aid mechanical and chemical digestion. To help in the chewing of food. Cheek cells are actually epithelial cells, and are used to line any cavities inside and outside the human body. Cheek cells mainly assist in chewing food and protecting against bacterial infection. They chew the food by breaking it down and the layer they occupy protects the cheek from injury.
