The basal layer of the oral epithelium generally has ____
|
|
two cell layers
|
|
|
keratin being produced
|
|
|
cells undergoing mitosis
|
|
|
columnar shaped cells
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cytoskeletal forces position mitotic nuclei near the apical cell membrane. In columnar and pseudostratified epithelia where cells elongate along their apicobasal axes, mitotic events are typically restricted to the apical domain of the epithelium (corresponding to the apical membrane of each cell; Fig. 2, C–F).
Detailed explanation-2: -The stratum basale features a layer of cuboidal or columnar cells that are above the basement membrane to which hemidesmosomes attach them. These cells are known for their mitotic capacity.
