What else can I help you with?
Is the dermis made of mostly dead cells?
No, the epidermis is made up of mostly dead cells
What are tube like pockets of epidermal cells that extend into the dermis?
Hair follicles are tube-like structures that extend from the epidermis into the dermis. They are comprised of epidermal cells and contain the hair shaft.
What are the types of fibers found in the dermis?
The dermis contains mainly collagen fibers, which provide strength and support to the skin. Additionally, there are elastic fibers that allow the skin to stretch and recoil. Finally, reticular fibers can also be found in the dermis, providing a supportive framework for the skin cells.
Which layer of the skin has blood vessels?
The layer of the skin that contains blood vessels is the dermis. Blood vessels in the dermis help nourish the skin cells and regulate body temperature.
What are the differences between a typical animal cell and an animal dermis cell?
Animal dermis cells are specialized skin cells found in the dermis layer, while a typical animal cell refers to a generic animal cell with a cell membrane, nucleus, and organelles. Dermis cells have specific functions related to providing structure, support, and elasticity to the skin, while typical animal cells perform various basic functions such as energy production, protein synthesis, and cell division. Additionally, dermis cells are derived from mesoderm during embryonic development, whereas typical animal cells are found throughout the body in different tissues.
What cell types are found in the dermis?
Fibroblasts are found in the dermis. They make the fibers that the dermis contains. There are many cells found in the blood vessels and nerve endings but they are not really considered to be dermal.
What is Dermis composed largely of?

Which cells would you most likely find in the dermis?

What cells would you most likely find in the dermis?
Squamous cells.
What are living cells called?
Dermis and hypodermis.
Cells of the same kind make up what?
Cells of the same kind make a tissue.
Is the dermis made of mostly dead cells?
No, the epidermis is made up of mostly dead cells
How is the dermis formed?
The division of the somatic cells (epithelial cells) in animal tissues/collenchyma cells in plants.
Which cells would you be most likely to find in the dermis?
Fibroblasts
What specialized function do dermis cells perform?
store fat
What cells types are likely to be found in the dermis?
Fibroblast, macrophages, and occasionally mast cells and white blood cells.
