lemezsejtek
Lemezsejtek is a Hungarian term that translates to "plate cells" or "sheet cells." In biology, this term is often used to describe cells that are flattened and thin, resembling a plate or a sheet. This morphology is characteristic of certain types of tissues, particularly epithelial tissues. Epithelial cells, which form the outer surfaces of the body, line internal cavities, and form glands, can exhibit various shapes, including squamous (flattened), cuboidal (cube-shaped), and columnar (tall and rectangular). Lemezsejtek specifically refers to the squamous type.
These thin, flat cells are well-suited for functions that require rapid diffusion or transport across a surface,
