Epithelial cells make the outer covering layer of every organ including skin. These cells are arranges in a very compacted manner to create a continuous sheet of layer.
Their compact appearance is one reason they protect the organs. It also helps them to stay intact at their places.
Their compact structure also protects organs from molecules to enter inside the organs and structures.
