These cells are large,polygonal in shape, and connected with each other by the protoplasmic glands are seen cut transversely. Their outline is circular and regular,the lining is a srngle layer of columnar epithelium and there is a basementmembrane. Contrast with cervical gland, fig. 44. the cells of the stroma proliferate and enlarge to form decidual cells, andin this way the decidua of pregnancy is produced. The covering of the mucous membrane consists of a single layer ofcolumnar epithelial cells (fig. 72). Each cell has a centrally placednucleus and is ciliated. At intervals this epithelial lining is broken bythe openings of the uterine glands. These run somewhat obliquelydownwards from the surface towards the deeper parts of the mucousmembrane, and some of t
