What else can I help you with?
Epidermal cells that are actively mitotic and replace superficial cells that are continually rubbed off are what type of stratum cell?
The epidermal cells that are actively mitotic and replace superficial cells are found in the stratum basale, also known as the basal layer or stratum germinativum.
What are the ridges of the stratum germinativum called?
The ridges of the stratum germinativum are called dermal papillae. These structures help anchor the epidermis to the dermis and play a role in increasing surface area for nutrient exchange between the layers.
What are translucent cells containing keratin called?
Translucent cells containing keratin are called squamous cells. These cells are flat and scale-like in shape, and they form the outermost layer of the skin.
Epidermal layer just interior to stratum granulosum?
The epidermal layer just interior to the stratum granulosum is the stratum spinosum. This layer is composed of living keratinocytes that help provide strength and structure to the skin. The stratum spinosum is important for cell turnover and the production of keratin.
Epidermal region exhibitng the most rapid cell division?
No. The Stratum Granulosum is deteriorating organelles. The Stratum Basale, or Stratum Germinativum, is the "Germinating layer". The most rapid cell division occurs here, of course, because it's closest to the vascular dermis.
Is the stratum basale the same as stratum germinativum?
The epidermal layer. (below that is the acellular dermal layer)
How long does it take a cell to move from the stratum germinativum to the stratum corneum?
It takes anywhere from 15 to 30 days for cells to migrate from the stratum germinativum to the stratum corneum.
What is another name for stratum basale?
stratum germinativum is also know as stratum basale
The term stratum germinativum is sometimes used to refer to the?
stratum basale
The stratum corneum contains large amounts of?
Keratinocytes of the stratum corneum contain large amounts of keratin protein.
Which skin cancer starts in the stratum germinativum?
you answer it
What are the ridges of the stratum germinativum?
They are called corns.
Which epidermal stratum could find many phases of mitosis?
Stratum Germinativum
Is there more keratin in the dermis or the stratum corneum?
Yes, the stratum corneum is notable for its keratin content.
What collectively form the stratum germinativum?
search answer in the book
Layer of the epidermis that is constantly undergoing mitosis is called?
The layer of the epidermis that is constantly undergoing mitosis is called the stratum basale, also known as the basal layer. This layer is responsible for producing new skin cells that eventually move up through the other layers of the epidermis.
What layer of skin is just beneath the stratum germinativum?
papillary
