melanocytes are produced in which layer of the skin
Melanocyte Melanocytes (/məˈlænəˌsaɪt, -noʊ-/ ( listen) or /ˈmɛlənəˌsaɪt, -noʊ-/[1][2]) are melanin-producing neural-crest derived[3] cells located in the bottom layer (the stratum basale) of the skin's epidermis, the middle layer of the eye (the uvea),[4] the inner ear,[5] meninges,[6] bones,[7] and heart.[8] Melanin is the pigment primarily responsible for skin color. Once synthesised, melanin is contained in a special organelle called a melanosome and moved along arm-like structures called dendrites, so as to reach the keratinocytes.
Egg Reproductive structures similar to the egg in other kingdoms are termed "spores," or in spermatophytes "seeds," or in gametophytes "egg cells".
The Pale The word pale derives ultimately from the Latin word
Human skin Epidermis, "epi" coming from the Greek meaning "over" or "upon", is the outermost layer of the skin. It forms the waterproof, protective wrap over the body's surface which also serves as a barrier to infection and is made up of stratified squamous epithelium with an underlying basal lamina.
Nuclear membrane Exactly how the nuclear membrane reforms during telophase of mitosis is debated. Two theories exist[7]â€”
Epithelium Epithelium lines both the outside (skin) and the inside cavities and lumina of bodies. The outermost layer of human skin is composed of dead stratified squamous, keratinized epithelial cells.[14]
