The Stratum Spinosum are the cells that are also called the prickle cells.
Stratum spinosum are not the cells: it's one of the epidermal layers. Keratinocytes are the cells which also called prickled cells.

Is an epidermal dendrite cell is a specialized phagocyte?
Yes. Epidermal dendritic cells arise from bone marrow and migrate to the epidermis. They are also called Langerhans cells after a German anatomist. These cells ingest foreign substances (phagocytic) and are key activators of our immune system.
What cells are epidermal cells?
They are skin and plant cells nd i love yhouu
What composes eight percent of epidermal cells?
Melanocytes (melano-=black) these cells also produce granules which secrete a lipid-rich product that helps waterproof the skin. Melanocytes comprise about 8% if the epidermal cells and produce and secrete the pigment melanin.
What is the epidermal layer that produces new cells?
Stratum germinativum, also called stratum basale or basal cell layer.
What does the term epidermal tissue mean?
Epidermal means above (epi-) the dermis (main skin layer). The epidermal layer is made of dead skin cells which you shed all day long. They also make up most of what we call house dust.
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.
Which component of blood helps fight disease?
Langerhan's Cells (also called epidermal dendritic cells) -They are phagocytes that ingest foreign substances and help to activate our immune system.
Comparison between epidermal tissue of plants and epithelial tissue of animals?
Epidermal tissues in plants includes several differentiated cell types. They are epidermal cells, guard cells, subsidiary cells, and epidermal hair. Many plants have waxy cuticle layer deposited on top of the epidermal cells. Epithelial tissues consist of epithelial cells which form continuous sheets that are attached to each other at many locations by tight junctions and desmosomes. Both plant epidermal tissues and animal epithelial tissues form the most numerous and largest tissues for their specific organisms. Both plant epidermal tissues and animal epithelial tissues also are very densely packed together, leaving very little intercellular space. The plant epidermal tissues functions in prevention of water loss and act as a barrier to fungi and other invaders. It also regulates gas exchange in plants and absorb water and minerals nutrients(especially in roots) The epithelial tissues not only covers the external environment of plant from the external environment but also lines the surfaces of internal organs of an organisms, unlike the plant epidermal tissues that only act as barrier between external environment and external environment.Functions of epithelial tissue includes secretion, selective absorption, protection. transcellular transport and detection of sensation. Other than that, both of the structure act mainly as protective barrier between the internal environment of living thins and the external environment.
What is anisocytic stomata?
It is also called irregular celled type stomata. this type of stomata remains surrounded by a limited number of cells which cannot be distinguished from other epidermal cells. Thus the subsidery cells are absent. This also called ranunculous type and commonly found im families like Ranunculaceae, Cappariaceae and others.
What organisms are found in porifera?
Porifera are sea sponges. They have no symmetry (asymmetrical) and they are one of the most basic forms of life. They have a 2 cell layer wall made of collar cells, spicules, amoeba like cells, and a layer of epidermal like cells. The spicules and the amoeba like cells are in between the layer of collar cells and epidermal cells. Sponges also have pores throughout their structure. Porifera include freshwater sponges as well of marine varieties. Freshwater sponges are common although not obvious. Frequently they are green in color due to included algae.
What a red blood cells called?
Red blood cells are also called erythrocytes
What are gametes also called?
Sex Cells, Reproductive Cells, Germ Cells
