What layer of the epidermis is the layer where mitosis occurs?
We find it in the deepest layer of the epidermis called Stratum Basal in which the stem cells undergo Mitosis replacing keratinocytes lost at the stratum corneum, the apical surface of epidermis.
Layer of the epidermis that is constantly undergoing mitosis is called?
the stratum basale aka germinitivium is the stratum that has miotic division of cells and there is some cell production in the stratum spinosum as well
What happens in the stratum germinativum?
stratum germinativum layer is the deepest layer of five epidermis layer which is the outer covering of skin in mammals. It is a continuous layer of cells which is often described as one cell thick but to the reality it is two to three cells thick in glabrous skin and hyper proliferative epidermis.
What is the epidermal layer that produces new cells?
Stratum germinativum, also called stratum basale or basal cell layer.
Which portion of the epidermis has actively reproducing cells?
The basal layer, also called the stratum germinativum is the most active part of the epidermis and the place where new cell growth takes place.
What are the ridges of the stratum germinativum called?
They are called corns.
What are the ridges of the stratum germinativum?
They are called corns.
What is the stratum?
It is the deepest of the five layers of the skin layer epidermis, which is our outer skin. It is where the skin cells are produced, and can be called the stratum basale germination layer
Where is the Stratum corneum of the skin?
The stratum corneum is a part of the layer of skin called the epidermis.
Stratum basale cell and a nerve fiber create?
the only cell that ,in conjunction with sensory nerve endings, from sensitive touch receptors is located in the deepest stratum of the Epidermis is called "Merkel disc"
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.
What is the layer of skin that you can see?
Epidermis .. the layer of the epidermis you can see is called the stratum corneum.
