What is the layer of the skin that we can see?
It is stratum corneum layer of epidermis on outer side of skin which is visible .
Which layer is the epidermis?
The epidermis has either 4 or 5 layers depending on the location of your body. Stratum Corneum Stratum Lucidum (only on the soles of your feet and palms of your hands) Stratum Granulosum Stratum Spinosum Stratum Basale
Which layer of skin has the fastest rate of mitosis?
The stratum basale, also known as the basal layer, is the layer of skin that has the fastest rate of mitosis. It is located at the base of the epidermis and contains actively dividing cells responsible for replenishing the skin's outer layers.
What is the second epidermal layer of the sole of your foot?
The second epidermal layer of the sole of the foot is called the stratum spinosum. It is composed of several layers of keratinocytes, which are cells that produce keratin, a tough protein that provides strength and protection to the skin. The stratum spinosum is involved in the barrier function of the skin and helps to prevent water loss.
The portion of the skin that is composed of nonliving cells is the?
The portion of the skin that is composed of nonliving cells is the stratum corneum. This outer layer of the epidermis consists of flattened keratinocytes that are no longer viable but provide protection for the underlying layers of the skin.
Where is the Stratum corneum of the skin?
The stratum corneum is a part of the layer of skin called the epidermis.
What is the stratum?
It is the deepest of the five layers of the skin layer epidermis, which is our outer skin. It is where the skin cells are produced, and can be called the stratum basale germination layer
Is the stratum basale the same as stratum germinativum?
The epidermal layer. (below that is the acellular dermal layer)
What layer of skin has only living cells?
stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale.
What is a description of the structure of the stratum corneum?
Upper layer of the 7 layers of the skin, the outer layer.

What happens in the stratum germinativum?
stratum germinativum layer is the deepest layer of five epidermis layer which is the outer covering of skin in mammals. It is a continuous layer of cells which is often described as one cell thick but to the reality it is two to three cells thick in glabrous skin and hyper proliferative epidermis.

Epidermis .. the layer of the epidermis you can see is called the stratum corneum.
What is the regenerative layer of epidermis?
The regenerative layer of the epidermis is called the stratum basale. It is the deepest layer of the epidermis where new skin cells are formed through cell division. These new cells then migrate upwards to replenish the outer layers of the epidermis.
Is stratum corneum the foundation of the skin?
The stratum corneum is the outermost layer of the skin. It is not the foundational layer of the skin.
Which layer of skin is the location of mitosis and replaces cells lost from the outer layer of the epidermis?
melanocytes produces melanin (pigment you're talking about). They are located in the most bottom layer of the epidermis (stratum basale).
