What else can I help you with?
Why is it possible to easily collect cell by gently scraping the inside of your cheek?
Because the cells on the outer layer are dead, so they come off easily.
Is the outer layer of the skin made of liveing cells?
The outer layer of the skin, called the epidermis, is mostly made up of dead skin cells called keratinocytes. However, the deepest layer of the epidermis contains living cells that are responsible for producing new skin cells.
What is the outer layer of the hair shaft called?
The outer layer of the hair shaft is called the cuticle. It consists of overlapping layers of thin cells that help protect the hair strand and give it its strength and flexibility.
Outer surface layer of cells of a plant or animal?
The outer surface layer of cells in plants is called the epidermis. In animals, the outermost layer of cells is called the epithelium. Both serve as protective barriers, regulate the exchange of substances, and provide a first line of defense against pathogens.
What is the regenerative layer of epidermis?
The regenerative layer of the epidermis is called the stratum basale. It is the deepest layer of the epidermis where new skin cells are formed through cell division. These new cells then migrate upwards to replenish the outer layers of the epidermis.
Why is it possible to easily collect cell by gently scraping the inside of your cheek?
Because the cells on the outer layer are dead, so they come off easily.
Why are cheek cells different than the cell on your palm?
because cheek cells are part of an animal cell so it cannot be used and it is specialised whereas stem cells are part of a planet cell so it can be used a lot of times and it is not specialised
Why are stratified squamous epithelium cells removed from the inside of the cheek intead of outer body surface tiisue for observations?
The cells found at the outer layer of your skin (e.g. on your arm) are dead. It's easier to get a good look at the cell of the mucous membranes.
Is the outer layer of the skin made of liveing cells?
The outer layer of the skin, called the epidermis, is mostly made up of dead skin cells called keratinocytes. However, the deepest layer of the epidermis contains living cells that are responsible for producing new skin cells.
What is the parts of the outer part of the leafs?
The outer part of the leaf is called the cuticle. It is a waxy layer and does not comprise of live cells. It's function is to prevent the leaf from desiccation (drying out).
What is the outer portion of the cell wall?
The outer portion of the cell wall is primarily composed of a layer called the extracellular matrix (ECM) in animal cells, which provides structural support and facilitates communication between cells. In plant cells, the outer layer consists of cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectin, forming a rigid structure that helps maintain shape and protect against mechanical stress. In bacteria, the outer layer can include lipopolysaccharides and proteins, contributing to the cell's integrity and defense against environmental factors. Overall, these outer portions are crucial for maintaining cell structure and function.
Where is the location of a cell wall?
outer layer in plant cells
What is the outer most layer of cells called?
Cell membrane
Where are dead skin cells?
The epedermis, the outer and the thinnest layer of your skin! :)
What do some cells in the outer layer of a root develop?
Root hairs
What is the outer layer of the hair shaft called?
The outer layer of the hair shaft is called the cuticle. It consists of overlapping layers of thin cells that help protect the hair strand and give it its strength and flexibility.
What is the outer non living layer of plant cells?
The outer non-living layer of plant cells is called the cell wall. It provides structural support and protection to the cell, as well as helps regulate the movement of substances in and out of the cell.
