How many kinds of cells does the lower epidermis have?
The lower epidermis has three main types of cells. These three main types of cells are the guard, subsidiary, and pavement cells.
What are most cells of the epidermis?
The most abundant cells in the epidermis are keratinocytes.
The reproducing cells of the epidermis are found in the?
Stratum basale
Where does the epidermis grow from?
The epidermis forms from key specialised stem cells found deeper under the outer layer. These stem cells are found in or on top of the dermis and grow into the epidermis. These cells in grow in layers and as the layers age, the cells undergo a process called 'keratinisation' almost completely changing into the protein keratin. The last part of the cell that is converted is the nucleus.
What is the function of dividing cells found at the base of epidermis?
The stratum basale (the bottom layer of cells in the epidermis) functions to provide a constant source of new cells to form the skin. This counterbalances the number of cells lost at the surface.
On which layer of epidermis are guard cells found?
epidermis.

What are the names of the two types of true tissue found in the cnidarians?
The two types of true tissue found in cnidarians are the epidermis and the gastrodermis.
Where are the oldest epidermal cells in the epidermis found?
stratum basale
The reproducing cells of the epidermis are found in the?
Stratum basale
Where are pigment cells located in the body?
Pigment cells (melanocytes) are found in the basal layer of the epidermis.
Where leaf pore guard cells found?
They are cells in the leaf epidermis, located arond the stomata. A pair of guard cells open and close each stoma (pore) for gas exchange and transpiration. They are different in shape from the rest of the epidermis cells, and unlike other epidermis cells they also contain chloroplasts.
What body part is Pigment cells located?
Pigment cells (melanocytes) are found in the basal layer of the epidermis.
What are white blood cells found in the epidermis that phagocitize mircrobes?
I believe they are the myeloid dendritic cells called Langerhans cells.
