Answer:

The correct answer is B. <em>The cells in the outer skin surface appeared flat, whereas the cells in the cross section were not flat.</em>

Explanation:

The epidermis is made up of five cell layers, which have different functions: Stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum, and stratum corneum.  

  • <u><em>Stratum basale</em></u> is the <em>innermost germinative, single, basal layer of the epidermis </em>composed of basal cuboidal-shaped cells. These cells are the precursor of keratinocytes, this is why this layer is also called germinativum. In this basal layer, there are also Merkel cells as well as melanocytes.
  • <em><u>Stratum spinosum</u></em> refers to the keratinocytes which produce keratin.
  • <u><em>Stratum granulosum</em></u>, this is the layer where keratinization begins. Cells produce hard granules that change to keratin and lipids as they ascend.
  • <u><em>Stratum lucidum</em></u> is conformed of densely compressed cells, which begins to flatten and appear indistinguishable between each other.
  • <u><em>Stratum corneum</em></u> is the most external layer, composed of dead, flattened cells which are released regularly in a process known as desquamation.

Answer:

BENEFITS:

The Descriptive investigation is used to describe a natural system when nothing or very little is known about the system. Like observing a new specimen in the microscope and describing it by observing the specimen.

A comparative analysis is used to compare two or more variable in nature by collecting data like observing the different colors of the rocks. It provides the data to show the similarity and dissimilarity of the population.

The Experimental investigation is used where experiments are performed to test and answer the scientific questions. The advantage is that data can be used as evidence for future research.

LIMITATIONS:

<u>descriptive  method  of  investigation </u>

It cannot be used to correct variable or be used to determine causes and  effect  of  the  problem

<u>experimental  method  of  investigation </u>

It might create an artificial situation that do not always represent the real  life situation

<u>comparative  method  of  investigation </u>

It  is not easy to control other variables that might influence the study
