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!!
