Because the skin sloughs off on a regular basis, the most superficial layer of the epidermis is primarily composed stratified squamous epithelium. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is stratified squamous epithelium?</h3>

Stratified squamous epithelia can be found in nearly every organ system that has direct contact with the outside environment, including the skin, respiratory, digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems. They also keep the body from drying out and losing water.

The most surface-level layer of the epidermis is composed principally of stratified squamous epithelium since the skin sluffing off on a regular basis.

Thus, the correct option is D.

Eukaryotic chromosomes contain two general domains that relate to the degree of chromatin condensation. These two regions are _
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

This question lacks options, options are: A) Heterochromatin and euchromatin

B) Uniform in the genetic information they contain

C) Separated by large sketches of repetitive DNA

D) Each void of typical protein-coding sequences of DNA

E) Void of introns.  

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

The chromatin or substance that makes up the nuclei of cells and that results from the interaction of DNA with histonic and non-histonic proteins and RNA; it can present different degrees of packing or contraction. When chromosomes are stained with chemicals that bind to DNA, densely stained regions and less densely stained regions appear. Heterochromatin are segments of the chromosome that stain strongly and remain visible, practically, during the entire cell cycle. There are few genes in these regions and therefore low transcriptional activity. They are supercondensed regions. Euchromatin are segments of the chromosome that are not visible during telophase and interphase, only in metaphase. It corresponds to regions that are less compact and in which there is a higher gene density.
