How and why does the epidermis produce new skin cells?

Biology
1 answer:
ArbitrLikvidat [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

About 95 percent of the skin cells in the epidermis are devoted to creating new skin cells in the lower two levels of the epidermis, which then cycle to the top layer to help form the stratum corneum. Eventually the dead cells of the stratum corneum flake off as new keratinocytes move up, and the cycle repeats itself.

Hope this answer is right!!

pochemuha
<span>Myelination enhances the speed of action potential propagation.
The difference between myelinated and unmyelinated axons are in the propagation of action potential. In unmyelinated axons, the action potential travels continuously through the axons. On the other hand, among the myelinated nerve fibres, transmembrane currents can only occur at the nodes of Ranvier where the axonal membrane is exposed, so the excitation of the axonal membrane jumps from node to node. This propagation is called saltatory conduction and this movement of depolarization wave is much faster than in unmyelinated fibres.</span>
