Which of these are visible characteristics of stratified squamous epithelium? Select all that apply. Stratified squamous epithelium is always adjacent to a free space or lumen. The boundary between stratified squamous epithelium and connective tissue is indistinct and hard to see. The squamous cells closer to the lumen are fuller and rounder while the squamous cells closer to the connective tissue are flatter. There are so many layers of cells that it would be difficult to count them precisely. The squamous cells closer to the lumen are flatter while the squamous cells closer to the connective tissue are fuller and rounder.
