Chapter 5, Problem 25RQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The tissues constituting the layers of the skin along with the embryonic origins of these layers.
Introduction:
Epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis are the various layers of the skin. Epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin that is composed of keratinocytes. Dermis is present below the epidermis layer and this layer is formed from fibrous as well as elastic tissues. Hypodermis layer can be found below the dermis, which is mainly involved in the fat storage.
