Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 1.1CT
The cells lining the inside of the cheek are frequently removed for making observations of basic cell structure. The cells are from stratified squamous epithelium. Explain why these cells are used instead of outer body surface tissue.

The ratio of cells to extracellular matrix is a major difference between epíthelial tissues and
connective tissues.
What relationship between epithelial tissues and connective tissues is important for the survival and
function of epithelial tissues?
The thick, pink-staining fibers that you are viewing on
the photograph are what type of fiber?
The very fine, dark-staining (blue purple) fibers are what
type of fiber?
Most of the cells that you see are fibroblasts. They can
be identified by the dark-staining nuclei scattered
throughout the specimen. The cytoplasm of these cells
stains weakly and cannot be easily identified. Refer to
your text and describe the function of these cells.
Lack of vitamin Cin the diet interferes with the ability of fibroblasts to produce collagen. How might this
affect connective tissue function?

What is the difference of the following tissues?
Simple squamous epithelium
Simple cuboidal epithelium
Simple columnar non-ciliated
Simple columnar ciliated
Stratified squamous keratinized/ cornified
Stratified squamous non-keratinized/ non cornified
Stratified cuboidal epithelium
Stratified columnar epithelium
Pseudo-stratified ciliated
Pseudo-stratified non-ciliated
The epidermis is keratinized stratified squamous epithelium. Explain why that epithelium is much better suited for protecting the body's external surface than a mucosa consisting of a simple columnar epithelium would be.
