Stratified squamous tissues consist of multiple layers of flattened cells. In areas like the mouth, skin, and esophagus, there is a lot of mechanical stress such as friction from eating, speaking, and normal body - to - environment contact. The multiple layers of stratified squamous epithelium provide protection against this friction.
