Layers of Skin 1. Epidermis 2. Dermis The skin includes 2 distinct tissue layers: 1. Epidermis 2. Dermis -Subcutaneous layer or hypodermis Lies beneath dermis NOT a layer of skin

Layers of skin

Epidermis 1. Epidermis: Made up of stratified squamous epithelium Lacks blood vessels Nourished by dermal blood vessels

Epidermis As new cells grow they push old cells farther from nutrient supply and they die Become keratinized- hardens, becomes waterproof Eventually shed

Thickest on palms and soles of feet Thin everywhere else (0.07-0.12mm thick) Cell division is higher in areas where skin is rubbed or pressed regularly (Hypothesize why?)

Make a picture bubble Map The Layers of the Human Skin 3m47s The Human Skin Animation 1m7s Make a picture bubble Map Add information from the video into your pictures of the layers of the skin -Layer of dead flat tissue

Layers of the epidermis Stratum corneum- Outermost layer, fully keratinized Stratum lucidum- Thickened skin of palms and soles (only) Stratum granulosum- Layers of granular cells that contain fibers of keratin Stratum spinosum- Limited mitosis Stratum basale- Deepest layer, undergoing mitosis, contains melanocytes

Melanocytes- specialized cells that produce the dark pigment melanin Provides skin color Absorbs UV rays Prevents mutations in the DNA or skin cells and other damaging effects The more melanin produced the darker the skin

2. Dermis Binds epidermis to underlying tissues On average 1.0-2.0mm thick Composed of: Irregular dense connective tissue Muscle cells Nerve cell processes Specialized sensory receptors Blood vessels Hair follicles Glands

Tattoos Ink injected into the dermis Color is permanent Dermis cells are not shed! Tattoo Removal Lasers shatters ink molecules Immune system removes debris Before lasers, tattoos were scraped, frozen, or cut away PAINFUL!!!!!

The Tattoo Removal Process 3m20s

Subcutaneous Layer NOT part of the skin Binds the skin to underlying organs Insulates Composed of: Loose connective tissue Adipose tissue Major blood vessels
