Cheek cells are made up of squamous epithelium which do not possess the property of totipotency. Hence, cheek cells can't make other cells. Can someone answer why stem cells reproduce please it is my homework.

Inner cheek and palm cells differ in that lining the inner cheek there are cells that produce mucus. Palm cells have a protective layer of queratin whereas inner cheek cells do not.

Outer cheek don't have mucus-producing cells and do have a layer of queratin, but much less than the skin lining palms.
