The cells on the epidermis have definite life cycle. Each epidermal cell begins life deep in the epidermis, where cells divide to form new cells. The new cells gradually mature and move upwards in the epidermis as new cells form beneath them. After about two weeks, the cells die and become part of the surface layer of the epidermis.
