What stratum is present in thick skin but not in thin skin?
Stratum lucidum (in thick skin) is a well defined epidermal layer found under the corneum region of the skin of the palms and soles. Main function of this stratum is to help the skin handle friction and also waterproof it. It is a thin transitional layer of epidermis found between the 'horny' and 'granular' layers.
Which layer of the epidermis is found in only a few areas of the body?
Stratum Basale
Is the oldest epidermal cell in the epidermis found in the stratum basale?
No I don't think so.
How can you grow Ganoderma Lucidum Reishi at home?
Growing Ganoderma Lucidum At HomeExtract from Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms by Paul Stamets:Ganoderma lucidum grows on oaks, and other hardwoods and it readily fruits on a variety of conifer and hardwood sawdust mixturesIn nature it is found on a wide variety of woods, typically on dead or dying trees, primarily on deciduous woods, especially oak, maple, elm, willow, sweetgum, magnolia, locust, and in the Orient, on plums. Found on stumps, especially near the soil interface, and occasionally on soils arising from buried roots.You can collect dried G. lucidum from your local Asian supermarket. G. lucidum is mainly sold for its spore content because that is what is most active medicinally so they sell you the mushroom gills in the shop.Also due to the nature of spores you can be guaranteed that any part of a Ganoderma Lucidum mushroom will be covered in spores.Alternatively if you do not wish to use wood to start your mycelium culture you can buy nutrient agar and petri dishes on eBay.
What proteins are found in the epidermis or dermis?
Keratin is the tough, waterproof protein abundant in the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the epidermis.

A thin translucent band found only in thick skin?
stratum lucidum
What translucent skin cells containing keratin are found in thick skin?
The layer of skin is called the stratum lucidum, part of the epidermis.
What is the layer of skin called that covers the soles of your feet?
The stratum lucidum is a layer of skin found on the palms and soles. It isn't found on other parts of the body.
What are the 7 layers of the outermost layers of skin found in the palm of the hands or soles of the feet?
The stratum lucidum is only found in the palms, fingertips, and soles.
What is the clear layer of the epidermis consisting of small transparent cells?
The stratum lucidum is the clear layer of the skin. It is found only in the thick skin of the palms and soles.
What are the differences in structures of thick and thin skin?
Thick skin ( contains five layers: startum basala, spinosum, granulosum, lucidum and corneum)It has prominent stratum corneum and well- developed stratum granulosum. In addition ,it has additional epidermal layer which is named as stratum lucidum. On the top of this ,thick layer lacks integumentary appendages: hair follicles, sebaceous glands and arrector pili muscles. Generally, thick skin is located to those aeas subjected to wear and tear and mainly on the palms of the hand and soles of the feet. Thin skin ( contains only four layers: startum basala, spinosum, granulosum, and corneum)It has less prominent stratum corneum than thick skin and less developed stratum granulosum. But, it is without clear epidermal layer, stratum lucidum. Unlike the thick skin, thin skin has hair follicles, sebaceous glands and arrector pili muscles . Such type of skin is dominant and lines most of the body surface. stratum lucidum
What cells make up the epidermis?
The epidermis is composed of 4-5 layers depending on the region of skin being considered. Those layers in descending order are the cornified layer (stratum corneum), clear/translucent layer found only on the palms and soles (stratum lucidum), granular layer (stratum granulosum), spinous layer (stratum spinosum), and basal/germinal layer (stratum basale/germinativum). The term Malpighian layer (stratum malpighi) is usually defined as both the basal and spinosum layers as a unitThe Layers of the Epidermis are.1- Stratum Corneum ( Most Superficial )2- Stratum Granulosum3- Stratus Spinosum4- Stratum Basale or Basal Layer ( Deepest Layer )* Stratum Corneum = keratinized,dead,flattened scale-like and non-nucleated cells which are continuously shed as flake-like residue. * Stratum Lucidum = thin,clean layers found only in epidermis of the lips,palms and soles. * Stratum Granulosum = one or more layers of granular cells that contain fiber ang keratin and shriveled nuclei. * Stratum Spinosum =spiny layer, several stratified layer of cells in contact with centrally located, large oral nuclei and spine like process. * Stratum Germinativum = basal layer, simple layer of cuboidal cells in contact with the epidermis.From deepest to superficial: Stratum germinativum (also called "stratum basale"), stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum (palms & soles), and stratum corneum, the outermost layer that is composed of dead skin cells.
Which layer contains the corneum lucidum?
The epidermis contains the corneum lucidum, but that lucidum layer is only found in the thick skin of the palms and soles.
Does the stratum corneum contain melanin?
No. They are found in the lowest layer of the epidermis (stratum basale)No. They are found in the lowest layer of the epidermis (stratum basale).
Are the oldest epidermal cells found in the stratum basale?
Yes, the oldest epidermal cells are found in the stratum basale. This layer, also known as the basal layer, is the deepest layer of the epidermis and is responsible for the continuous production of new cells. As cells are pushed upwards, they become older and eventually reach the outermost layer of the epidermis, the stratum corneum, where they are shed.
Is the stratum basale found in the skin?
The stratum basale is found in the skin. It is one of the layers of the epidermis.
