Squamous epithelium. The illustration shows a stratified squamous epithelial tissue layer with flattened apical cells and cuboidal basal cells resting on a basement membrane (BM). The epithelium overlies connective tissue containing extracellular matrix (ECM), depicted with collagenous fibers and scattered stromal elements. In histology and anatomy, this tissue forms a protective barrier at body surfaces and mucosal linings, resisting abrasion and regulating permeability. The apical surface faces the exterior or a lumen, while the basal surface anchors to the BM.
