The uppermost superficial layer of the skin comprised entirely of epithelial cells

The skin's pH of 4-6, known as the acid mantle helps with this skin function

This gland produces oily secretions called sebum that contain broken-down cells

This injury is from UV damage to underlying skin and results in inflammation

This condition is induced by UV rays from the sun

Thin translucent zone seen only in thick skin

These cells are filled with keratin, serve as a water barrier and are produced by stem cells in the stratum basale

The merocrine sweat glands, apocrine sweat glands, sebaceous glands, ceruminous glands, and mammary glands

This cell creates skin pigmentation

This injury causes complete damage of the most superficial dermis, penetrates down to the dermis and the hypodermis, is life-threatening and has astronomical infection rates

The bottom fatty layer of skin that functions as an energy reserve, cushion, and for heat retention

These are extensions of the dermis into the epidermis that forms the ridges of the fingertips

The body contains millions of these sweat glands to cool down the body

This condition results in a purple/blue pigmemented skin color due to improper circulation of blood

The most deadly type of skin cancer, often arises from melanocytes of a mole

The vascular middle layer of skin, almost exclusively dense irregular tissue

This section of skin contains the papillary layer and the reticular layer

This is a sweat gland that contains fatty acids

A genetic condition where the body is incapable of producing melanin

The rule to check to see if moles may be cancerous

The cell layers stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale make up this skin layer

This is the thinning of balding of hair

This gland is only found in the external ear canal and combines with sebum to produce earwax

Causes "blushing" and occurs from alcohol, embarrassment, anger or exercise

This injury involves blisters and causes the seperation between the epidermis and dermis
