Answer 2

Answer is option "c"

Explanation:

• The simple squamous epithelial tissues are present in the skin. These cells are present in the inner surface of the cheek. These cells are the single layer of cells placed on the basement membrane in the form of tiles. They are compactly arranged without intercellular spaces similar to the packing and arrangement of tiles.
• Squamous cells have the appearance of thin, flat plates or they are tile-like. They have horizontal flattened, elliptical nuclei because of the thin flattened form of the cell. They are attached to each other like a mosaic.
• So, the right answer is option c "flat and the like".
