Verified step by step guidance

1. Understand that the question is asking about the type of epithelial tissue visible when looking at another person, specifically the outermost layer of the skin.
2. Recall that the skin's outermost layer is the epidermis, which is composed of epithelial tissue.
3. Identify the type of epithelial tissue that forms the outer layer of the skin. This is the stratified squamous epithelium, which is designed to protect underlying tissues in areas subject to abrasion.
4. Differentiate between the types of epithelial tissues listed: transitional epithelium is found in the urinary bladder, pseudostratified columnar epithelium is found in the respiratory tract, and simple squamous epithelium is found in areas like the alveoli of the lungs.
5. Conclude that when looking at another person, the visible epithelial tissue is the stratified squamous epithelium, which is the correct answer.
