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.
In the integumentary system what is considered dead cells?
stratum corneum in thin skin and stratum lucidum in the thick skin
What mitotic cells are filled with an intermediate filaments?
Stratum Granulosum NO. The correct answer is Stratum Spinosum. Mitotic cells produced by the Stratum Basale move out to the Stratum Spinosum. You can find several layers of keratinocytes with thick bundles of intermediate filaments.
Epidermal layer containing visible granules?
Stratum granulosum
Which layer is the epidermis?
The epidermis has either 4 or 5 layers depending on the location of your body. Stratum Corneum Stratum Lucidum (only on the soles of your feet and palms of your hands) Stratum Granulosum Stratum Spinosum Stratum Basale
What layer is present in thick skin but not thin skin?

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
