Epithelial sheets are classified by their number of cell layers and their cell shape. In the  following table, draw simplified illustrations of the eight classifications. In each illustration,  identify the cells, nuclei, and basement membrane. For the stratified epithelia, you only need to  draw two or three cell layers, as shown in the stratified cuboidal epithelium example provided in  the table.
