Corneum is the most superficial layer of the epidermis. The basale layer is the deepest layer of the epidermis
The cells of the basale are cube shaped and alive. The cells of the corneum are dead and filled with keratin, the same as found in nails and hair.
The cells of the stratum corneum are sqamous-shaped, amitotic (dead actually), and contain a high percentage of keratin. Cells of the statum basale are columnar-shaped, actively mitotic and has relatively little keratin.
the corneum is the most superficial layer of the epidermis. the basale is the deepest layer of the epidermis.
The stratum corneum is superficial to the stratum basale. The stratum basale is deep to the stratum corneum.
The stratum basale and the stratum corneum are two of the layers of the epidermis. The epidermis is the outermost layer of your skin. Within the epidermis, the stratum basale is deeper than the stratum corneum, which is the most superficial layer of the epidermis.
Stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum,stratum lucidum & stratum corneum
stratum basale
Nail matrixStratum Basale.
No. They are found in the lowest layer of the epidermis (stratum basale)No. They are found in the lowest layer of the epidermis (stratum basale).
The epidermal layer containing the oldest cells is the stratum corneum. This layer consists of dead cells that have moved up from the deeper layers of the epidermis and are constantly shed and replaced.
The epidermis is the layer of the skin that contains the stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale. These layers make up the outermost part of the skin and are responsible for providing protection, regulating temperature, and facilitating the renewal of skin cells.
The epidermal layer. (below that is the acellular dermal layer)
Yes, the oldest epidermal cells are found in the stratum basale. This layer, also known as the basal layer, is the deepest layer of the epidermis and is responsible for the continuous production of new cells. As cells are pushed upwards, they become older and eventually reach the outermost layer of the epidermis, the stratum corneum, where they are shed.
Skin contains various layers from below upwards. But needle would pierce it in REVERSE order. So 1)A layer of flat cells about to be discarded is called Stratum corneum 2)A layer of almost transparent cells(Unstained cells.) called as Stratum Lucid-um.3)A layer of cells which looks granular.(Having granules in them.) is Stratum granulosum.4)A layer of cells called as Stratum Spinosum.5) A single cell layer of prominent nucleus in them called as Stratum basale.6)Then you have thick Dermis made of connective tissue.7) Then you have layer called as Hypo dermis made of of Adipose tissue (Fatty layer.)
The epidermis is divided into different layers: - Stratum corneum - Stratum lucidum - Stratum granulosum - Stratum spinosum - Stratum basale The stratum basale is made up of the cells which through mitosis replicate several times. Each of these cells goes up towards the surface by being "pushed" by the new cells in formation. Stratum basale is the place of "birth" of the cells that compose the rest of layers which form the epidermis.
