Listed under are the 5 different type of cells found in the epidermis and their description:
1. Stem cells
These are what you call undifferentiated cells. These are cells found in the stratum basale, which is the deapest layer of the epidermis. These cells divide to create keratinocytes.
2. Keratinocytes
The make up the majority of the cells in the epidermis. They synthesize keratin which are proteins that make up your hair, skin, and nails. They can also be found in other organs inside your body.
3. Melanocytes
These cells can only be found in the stratum basale. They synthesize melanin with a brown to black pigment. These dark pigments serves as protection for the skin from harmful UV rays.
4.Merkel cells
Merkel cells are also known as <em>tactile cells</em>. They are the sensory receptor for touch. Merkel cells and the nerve fiber together are called the Merkel disc.
5. Dentritic cells
They are also known as <em>Langerhans cells</em>. They can be found in two layers of the epidermis: the stratum spinosm; and stratum granulosm. They are what you call macrophages that come from the bone marrow. They serve as immune cells that provide protection against toxins, microbes and other pathogens that try to penetrate the skin.
Hope you find some information above that will help you.
Science means to know. Biology is the study of living things.
You understand a lot more of the function of the body (EMT, healthcare, diseases, etc.)
animals (veterinary work,etc.) You will understand the intro into genetics, and the ways in which the sun and plants directly influences our entire world.
Biology is a form of science that is pretty broad, and at the same time a form of science you can use in every day life of understanding the basic things that happen around you (in culture, family, news, environment, behavioural, etc.)
Biology is also a great way to get your feet wet into basic science- a launching pad for chemistry, physics, etc. Hope this helped. :)
It will be a Compound, because it will use Multiple Optical lenses
Elbow dysplasia is an inherited developmental abnormality that affects the elbow joint of dogs. It is accepted that the offspring of <span>a </span>dog<span> with the condition are likely </span><span>to develop the condition themselves. Therefore, the likely answer is: '</span>It has low diversity in its genes'. Even though the dog is a mixed breed, it is possible that one or both parents carried the gene for a predisposition to elbow dysplasia.
Answer:
Option (A), (B), (D) and (E).
Explanation:
Wings are present in class Aves that helps the birds to fly. Wings provides the means of locomotion and also allow the sexual selection in case of birds. The wings are the modified forelimb of birds.
The bats wings are ancestral whereas birds have derived wings. Birds and reptiles (turtle) mostly have ancestor with wings. On the basis of wings we cannot construct a phylogeny tree. Hence, wings are not the ideal characteristics for the construction of a phylogenetic tree.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A), (B), (D) and (E).
