| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| nails contain alot of this | hard keratin |
| layer of skin that replaces lost cells | stratum germinativum |
| fingerprints develop from this layer | dermis |
| give 3 characteristics of hair | colored by melanin, consists of dead epithelial cells, made by stratum germinativum |
| hair on a polar bear | fur |
| another name for subcutaneous layer | hypodermis (under the dermis) |
| muscles that produce goose bumps | arrector pili |
| function of sebum | oils the hair and skin |
| this part of the body has an especially thick stratum corneum | heel of the foot |
| name the layers of the epidermis from the surface down | stratum corneum, lucidum, granulosum, germinativum |
