ILLUSTRATION NUMBER: 14-01MEV-L6

DETAIL:

DESCRIPTION: The skin: The epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is made up of several layers of cells. The outermost layers are composed of dead and hardened, or “keratinized,” cells. The layers are water resistant because of the layers of scale-like cells and the oil secreted from the sebaceous glands in the deeper dermis. The deep layers of the epidermis also contain pigmented cells called melanocytes. These cells absorb ultraviolet light and account for the color of dark-skinned races. The dermis is the deeper of the two large subdivisions of the skin and is very dynamic. It is vascular and contains sweat and oil glands, hair follicles, and nerves. The main structural element in the dermis is collagen, a fibrous connective tissue. The fibers of collagen form a mesh in the dermis. The deepest layer, called the hypodermis, contains fat and connective tissues as well as blood vessels. The bands of connective tissue in this layer connect the dermis with the fascia, a sheet of connective tissue covering the muscles.
