Stratified epithelial tissues are named by the shape of Stratified epithelial tissues are named by the shape of their outer most cell layers (i.e. squamous, their outer most cell layers (i.e. squamous, cuboidal or columnar). cuboidal or columnar).
In stratified squamous epithelium, the outer most layer In stratified squamous epithelium, the outer most layer is comprised of scale like or flattened cells that is comprised of scale like or flattened cells that serve to protect the underlying tissues in areas serve to protect the underlying tissues in areas subject to abrasion. subject to abrasion.
Although the surface cells are squamous, note that the Although the surface cells are squamous, note that the deeper or basal layers are composed of cuboidal deeper or basal layers are composed of cuboidal and columnar cells. These basal layers are and columnar cells.
