What kind of tissue lines the insides of your cheeks?

Stratified Squamous Epithelium


What is the epithelium that occurs in a thick layer of cells?

Stratified epithelium is a type of epithelial tissue that consists of multiple layers of cells. It is found in areas that require protection from mechanical or chemical stress, such as the skin or the lining of the esophagus. The layers provide strength and durability to the tissue.


What epithelium tissue provides the greatest protection from mechanical injury?

Stratified squamous epithelium provides the greatest protection from mechanical injury due to its multiple layers of cells and its ability to withstand abrasion and friction. This type of tissue is often found in areas subject to wear and tear, such as the skin and the lining of the mouth and esophagus.


What are some examples of tissue?

Kleenex, Puffs, Puffs Plus and so on.


What type of tissue lines the esophagus and forms the skin epidermis?

Stratified squamous epithelial cells are what form the top two layers of the epidermis: stratum corneum and stratum lucidum. Then stratified cuboidal epithelial cells are found in the bottom three layers of the epidermis: stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale. (Stratum basale is only layer that contains nothing but mitotic cells. This layer contains melanocytes as well.) The entire epidermis, however is identified as stratified squamous because epithelial tissue is always identified by the type of epithelial tissue at the apical (top) surface.

What tissue is classified as simple or stratified?

Epithelial tissue is classified as simple (single layer of cells) or stratified (multiple layers of cells). Simple epithelium is found in areas where absorption and filtration occur, while stratified epithelium is found in areas subject to mechanical stress and protection, such as skin.

What type of tissue can withstand repeated friction and abuse?

Stratified squamous epithelium is a type of tissue that can withstand repeated friction and abuse due to its many layers of cells. This tissue is found in areas that experience a lot of wear and tear, such as the skin and the lining of the mouth and esophagus.
