What type of epithelium secretory epithelium the pancreas?
The secretory epithelium is a part of the skin and associated with the sweat glands.
What is a group of skin cells called?
Epithelium. There are many kinds of Epithelium.
Is the skin squamous cuboid or columnar?
The skin is primarily composed of squamous epithelial cells, specifically stratified squamous epithelium in the outer layer known as the epidermis. This type of epithelium is designed to provide protection against abrasion, pathogens, and water loss. Cuboidal and columnar epithelial cells are typically found in other organs, such as glands and the respiratory tract, rather than in the skin.
What and a tissue to the skin?
The skin is the largest organ in the body. By definition an organ is made of several different tissues. In the dermis is found hair follicles, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, free nerve endings, touch and pressure receptors adipose cells and a vascular supply. All of these are made of different cell types. The outer skin layer is simple squamous epithelium.
Human skin is primarily what type of Epithelium?
Human skin is primarily composed of stratified squamous epithelium. This type of epithelium consists of multiple layers of flat cells that provide protection and help prevent water loss.
What is the function of stem cells in glands and in epithelium of the skin?
Helps aid in regeneration

What are the basic units of the integumentary system?
epithelium (skin cells).
Squamous epithelium epithelium's another name is what?
Another name for squamous epithelium is "pavement epithelium" because the cells are flat and resemble tiles on a floor.
Where can you found epithilial cells?
Epithelial cells are the individual cells of an epithelium, which is a layer of cells forming the surface of a structure or an inner lining.For example, there is an epithelium lining the alimentary canal (gut), and another lining the alveoli of the lungs. Human skin also consists of epithelial cells.There are different types of epithelial cells, classified mainly on to their shape, such as columnar and cuboidal. An epithelium may have secretory cells (glands) incorporated in it, such as the mucous cells of the alveolar epithelium.Where an epithelium forms an inner lining of a blood or lymph vessel, it is called an endothelium.Epithelial cells can also be organized into glands and organs and are referred to as glandular tissue.
What are the functions of of the skin glands?
Sebaceous glands secrete oil to protect the skin. Sweat glands secrete watery perspiration to excrete wastes and cool the body.
What is found in your skin bone cells chloroplasts oil glands cell walls?
Oil glands are found in your skin.
What does The epidermis contain that allows it to provide a protective physical barrier?
The dermis contains fat cell, blood supply, and nerves. It also contains hair follicles, oild glands, and sweat glands. Fibroblasts in the dermis make collagen.The dermis is composed of connective tissue and contains blood vessels, nerve endings, hair follicles, lymph vessels sebaceous glands(oil glands), and sudoriferous glands(sweat glands).collagen fibers, arector pili, sebaceous glands, sudoriferous glands, sensory receptors pacinian corpuscle, meissener's corpuscle, hair root, stratified epithelium The dermis contains, among other things, hair follicles, sebaceous glands (oil), sweat glands, free nerve endings (pain), pressure/touch receptors and a microvascular supply.
What is the function of stratified squamous epithelium?
Stratified squamous epithelium consists of several layers of cells, which protect the areas of the body It can be found in areas such as the esophagus, mouth, and the outer portion of the skin (epidermis).
What is the function of stratified epithelium tissue?
Epithelium is found covering external or internal surfaces in the body. Stratified epithelium consists of more than one layer of cells. It is often found in situations subject to abrasion, where the top layers of cells are worn off. Layers underneath replace the lost cells, so the basic function of stratified epithelium is protection. See: http://ect.downstate.edu/courseware/histomanual/epithelia.html
