In stratified epithelium, desmosomes would be especially abundant to resist mechanical forces. These specialized cell-to-cell junctions provide strong adhesion between neighboring cells, enhancing the tissue's structural integrity and resilience against stretching and shear forces. Additionally, tight junctions may also be present to maintain barrier function, but desmosomes play a crucial role in withstanding mechanical stress.

When classifying a tissue that has stratified epithelium with more than one cell type which cell type do you base the classification on?

The classification of a tissue with stratified epithelium with more than one cell type is typically based on the predominant or top layer of cells. The classification is usually determined by the cell type that is most abundant or visible at the surface of the tissue.


What are anchoring junctions?

They are cells which mechanically attach cells (and their cytoskelentons) to their neighbours or to the extracellular mattrix. They enable group of cells such as epithelium to resist streching forces by connecting the cytoskeletal elements of a cell either to those of another cell or to the extracellular matrix. They are most abundant in tissues that are subjected to sever mechanical stress, such as heart muscle and skin epithelium(epithermis) university of constanta

Which protein provides mechanical support and tensile strength for the body's tissues?

Collagen is the protein that provides mechanical support and tensile strength for the body's tissues. It is the most abundant protein in the human body and is found in skin, tendons, ligaments, and bones.


How does epithelium obtain nutrients and oxygen and get rid of wastes?

Epithelial cells obtain nutrients and oxygen from the underlying connective tissue via diffusion. Metabolic waste products are removed through diffusion into the connective tissue and subsequently cleared by the bloodstream and lymphatic system. The efficiency of these processes is essential for maintaining the health and function of the epithelium.
