The epidermis is the uppermost or epithelial layer of the skin. It acts as a physical barrier, preventing loss of water from the body, and preventing entry of substances and organisms into the body. Its thickness varies according to body site. The epidermis consists of stratified squamous epithelium.
The pillar-like epithelial cells cover the finger-like projections (villi) of the intestinal surface. Observe the variation in appearance of the epithelial layer which is caused by different angles of cutting (refer to p. 6 of the lab manual). If possible, define the basement membrane underlying the bases of the cells.
