What is the epidermis?
The outermost layer of the skin. It is built up of five layers.
22 of 37
The epidermis: horny layer
The horny layer is made up of flattened dead skin cells. This is the top layer of the skin that you can see with the naked eye. The cells of this layer are shed continuously to allow the new cells through. Peels off when the skin has been sunburned
23 of 37
The epidermis: clear layer
The clear layer is only found on the palms of hands and soles of the feet. The clear layer is made up of 3 to 4 layers of thick, flattened dead cells. This layer acts as protection in areas of friction.
24 of 37
The epidermis: granular layer
The granular layer is the middle layer of the epidermis. The layer is 2 to 4 cells thick. The cells in this layer begin to die and flatten. Waste and other substances from the cell get squashed together and harden.
25 of 37
The epidermis: prickle cell layer
The prickle cell layer is 10 to 20 cells thick. The cells have spines which connect to other cells and prevent bacteria entering the body. The cells in this layer start to harden and produce keratin. The cells are called melanocytes, which produce me
26 of 37
The epidermis: basal layer

The reticular layer is dense and fibrous. It contains the main components of the dermis.
32 of 37
Where is it?
It is found beneath the papillary layer.

What is its function?
It protects and repairs injured tissue It contains collagen, elastin and reticulin tissue.
34 of 37
The subcutaneous layer. What is it?
It is the fatty layer of the skin, underneath the dermis.
35 of 37
The subcutaneous layer. What happens there?
Cells called lipocytes produce lipids. These are the fat cells from which our bodies make subcutaneous tissue.
36 of 37
