This layer is well vascularized and connects the skin to the underlying fascia of bones and muscle

The hypodermis is responsible for the coloring of the skin, which is called what

What colors the skin

This is responsible for the production of melanin

This transports, the melanin in a vesicle from basale to keratinocytes

This gives the color black brown to the skin

This gives the color red to the skin

it protects the dna of epidermal cells from uv damage, skin color

What happens with too much UV exposure?

What happens to too much sun exposure?

What destroys the melanosomes after doing its function?

where will the melanin filled keratocytes be sloughed off

dead keratinized cells

The origin of this is at the dermis

This is anchored to the hair follicle and is the exposed part

below the surface

This surrounds the hair papilla with nerves and blood vessels. It also has hair matrix.

what are the mitotically active basal cells called in the hair bulb

this is the central core of the hair

layer of compressed keratinized cell, responsible for hair texture.

this covers the cortex , very hard keratinized cells

These are cuboidal shift stem cell and is a precursor of keratinocytes

8-10 layers in the epidermis

3-5 layers in the epidermis

Stratum corneum layers

stratum granulosum layers

stratum spinosum layers

this surrounds the root of the growing hair and extends to the hair shaft

Extension of the epidermis and encloses the hair root

It is a thick, clear, connective tissue sheath covering the hair root and connects to the dermis

protection, sensory input, thermoregulation, communication are functions of a ?

What are the three phases of hair growth?

how long does anagen last?

How long does catagen last?

how long does telogen last?

This phase is when the cells divide rapidly of the root pushing the hair shaft out

This is the transition period of the hair growth

This is when the hair follicle is at rest

hair growth rate per day

how many hairs do we lose and gain every day

why do we get white hair or gray hair when aging?

This is affected by hormones or dietary changes are aging
