The pigment found in the granular layer of the skin is melanin. Melanin is produced by melanocytes and gives the skin its color, as well as provides protection against UV radiation.
Pigment cells (melanocytes) are found in the basal layer of the epidermis.
Pigments are produced in specialized cells called chromatophores, which are located in the skin of animals such as fish, reptiles, and amphibians. In plants, pigments are produced in plastids, primarily chloroplasts. In humans and other animals, pigments like melanin are produced by melanocytes in the skin.

An acanthosis is a benign abnormal thickening of the prickle cell layer of the epidermis.
Epidermal pigment is pigment that is on the outer layer of the skin. In humans, that is usually melanin, which is the pigment that makes up skin.
Pigment granules, which determine hair color, are found in the cortex layer of the hair shaft. They are produced by cells called melanocytes and are responsible for producing melanin, which gives hair its color.
truely,no layer of the hair has pigment. if i didnt help try google. good luck,soldier. :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
The layer of the epidermis that has pigment-producing melanocytes is the stratum basale (basal layer). Melanocytes produce melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, and transfer it to surrounding keratinocytes.

There is no major difference, its just that dark eyes have Iris with a dark pigment layer. Its not that the other colorful eyes don't have the pigment layer, they do but because the color of pigment layer differ therefore color of eye differ. Blue eyes don't have pigment.
