Vedclass · Answer

(D) Compound epithelium consists of more than one layer of cells (multi-layered). Only the cells of the deepest layer rest on the basement membrane. Due to being multi-layered,compound epithelia have a limited role in secretion and absorption. Their primary function is to provide protection against chemical,mechanical,thermal,or osmotic stresses. They are found covering the dry surface of the skin,the moist surface of the buccal cavity,the pharynx,and the inner lining of the ducts of salivary glands and pancreatic ducts.
