Epithelium Characteristics • Cells fit closely together • Tissue layer always has one free surface (Apical Surface) • The lower surface is bound by a basement membrane (Anchors ET to CT) • Avascular (have no blood supply) • nourishment received by diffusion from blood supply in C.T. below it. • Regenerate easily IF well nourished

Figure 3.18e
Stratified Epithelium • Stratified Squamous • Cells in deeper layers receive nourishment by diffusion from blood supply in C.T. below. • So cells in those deeper layers are alive and reproduce • Older cells are pushed outward, don’t receive nourishment, and die. • These aged cells become keratinized – filled with keratin protein- and are on the epidermis. • Linings are not keratinized; stay moist. Figure 3.18e
