What else can I help you with?
Cell that is found in tha basal layer that function as mechanoreceptor?
Merkel cells are found in the basal layer of the epidermis and function as mechanoreceptors responsible for detecting light touch and pressure on the skin. These specialized cells are connected to sensory nerve endings and play a role in sensory perception.
What does the germinal layer do?
The germinal layer is the innermost layer of the skin where new skin cells are formed. This layer contains stem cells that divide and differentiate to regenerate the outer layers of the skin, providing a constant supply of new skin cells for growth and repair.
What is a basal layer?
The basal layer is the deepest layer of the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. It contains cells called basal cells that continuously divide and give rise to new skin cells. These new cells then move up through the layers of the epidermis to the surface of the skin.
How come you can cut the outside layer of your skin without feeling pain?
The outer layer of skin, called the epidermis, does not contain nerve endings that sense pain. Therefore, cutting this layer may not be painful. Pain receptors are more concentrated in the deeper layers of the skin, such as the dermis.
Which cell is adapted for transmitting message?
Nerve cell
What layer of skin that contains the blood vessels and nerves closest to the surface of of the skin is?
The upper layer of the skin is called the 'epidermis'. In birds, it contains no nerve cells, and their Merkel cells are located in the dermis. However, in most animals it contains a scattering of nerve cells called Merkel cells, located at the basal layer. The middle layer of the skin is called the 'dermis.' It contins blood vessels, most of the nerve cells, and other structures. The lower layer of the skin is called the 'sub-cutis' and mostly contains fat.
Which layer of the skin produces the skin cells?
The Bascal Cell Layer, the deepest layer where cells divide to produce new skin cells.
Is the outer layer of the skin made of liveing cells?
The outer layer of the skin, called the epidermis, is mostly made up of dead skin cells called keratinocytes. However, the deepest layer of the epidermis contains living cells that are responsible for producing new skin cells.
What are skin nerve muscle cells classified to?
nerve tissue
Which layer of skin will you not find encapsulated nerve receptors?
You will not find encapsulated nerve receptors in the epidermis layer of the skin. These nerve receptors are typically found in the dermis and subcutaneous layers of the skin where they help to sense touch, pressure, and temperature.
What layer of skin has living and dividing cells?
Stratum basale is the layer of skin that has living and dividing cells.
Cell that is found in tha basal layer that function as mechanoreceptor?
Merkel cells are found in the basal layer of the epidermis and function as mechanoreceptors responsible for detecting light touch and pressure on the skin. These specialized cells are connected to sensory nerve endings and play a role in sensory perception.
Do gunshots hurt?
Yes, very painfully. The bullet rips the first layer of the skin, then to your nerve cells, causing unbearable pain, which you can die from.
What does the germinal layer do?
The germinal layer is the innermost layer of the skin where new skin cells are formed. This layer contains stem cells that divide and differentiate to regenerate the outer layers of the skin, providing a constant supply of new skin cells for growth and repair.
What nerve supplies the skin?
skin cells and skin tissues
What is a basal layer?
