Detailed explanation-1: -Stratified cuboidal epithelium is a type of epithelial tissue composed of multiple layers of cube-shaped cells. Only the most superficial layer is made up of cuboidal cells, and the other layers can be cells of other types. Topmost layer of skin epidermis in frogs, fish is made up of living cuboidal cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Stratified squamous keratinized epithelium It consists of five layers: Stratum basale: consists of single layer of cuboidal to columnar cells resting on a wavy basement membrane. Stratum spinosum: has the same structure like that of the stratified squamous non-keratinized epithelium.
Detailed explanation-3: -Stratified cuboidal epithelium consists of cube shaped cells bound together by various membrane junctions, or places between cells bound together with specialized proteins.
