Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The squamous epithelial cells are characterized by being flat, possessing an oblong nucleus, and having a scale-like appearance. The cells are wider than they are tall and appear somewhat hexagonal when viewed from above.

Detailed explanation-2: -Conclusions: Our data highlight the importance of autophagy in the gastric mucosa as a protective mechanism when the epithelium is injured. In the stomach, aspirin induces mucosal damage and reduces autophagy, thus, eliminating a protective mechanism that epithelial cells could use to escape death.
