ectoderm.
The layer of the epidermis that has pigment-producing melanocytes is the stratum basale (basal layer). Melanocytes produce melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, and transfer it to surrounding keratinocytes.
The middle germ layer is called mesoderm. It gives rise to structures like muscles, bones, and the circulatory system in the developing embryo.
The melanocytes are the melanin-producing cell in the bottom layer of the epidermis of the skin. Merkel cells are receptor cells found in the skin of vertebrates. They aid in the ability to sense light touch.
Bone is derived from the mesoderm germ layer during early embryonic development. Mesoderm gives rise to the skeletal system, including bones, cartilage, muscles, and connective tissues.
Stratum Basale or Germinativum Some 10-25% of the cells in the stratum Basale are melanocytes, and their branching processes extend among the surrounding cells, reaching well into the more superficial Stratum Spinosum layer. Occasional Merkel cells are also seen in this stratum.
Yes, melanocytes are derived from the neural crest cells, which are a transient structure that arises from the ectodermal germ layer during embryonic development.
The layer of the epidermis that has pigment-producing melanocytes is the stratum basale (basal layer). Melanocytes produce melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, and transfer it to surrounding keratinocytes.
Melanocytes are located in the bottom layer of the skin's epidermis, middle layer of the eye, inner ear, meninges, bones and heart. Melanocytes function is to produce melanin, which is the pigment primarily responsible for skin color.
Gastrulation is first step towards germ layer development .

The tongue is derived from the ectoderm germ layer during early embryonic development.
Melanocytes are located in the bottom layer of the skin's epidermis, middle layer of the eye, inner ear, meninges, bones and heart. Melanocytes function is to produce melanin, which is the pigment primarily responsible for skin color.

The primary germ layer that forms the brain and spinal cord is called the ectoderm.
