are sudoriferous glands in the epidermis
The epidermis consists of five layers of cells, each layer with a distinct role to play in the health, well-being, and functioning of the skin. Nutrients reach the surface of the skin (epidermis) through the process of ________. The stratum corneum (outermost layer of skin) is a zone of approximately four layers of viable cells that are able to synthesize proteins that keep the outer layer of skin smooth and soft. 1 Basal Cell Layer-Keratinocytes begin in the deepest layer of the epidermis, the stratum basale, which is a row of columnar cells resting on the basal lamina that separates the epidermis from the dermis. 2  Mitosis occurs exclusively at the basal cell layer and allows for the replacement of cells lost from the surface. The ________ are the small muscles located in the dermis that cause goose bumps. Tweet. Skin consists of several layers. Some of the accessory structures of the skin, e.g. hair follicles, sweat glands and oil glands originate in the dermis layer (of the skin) and protrude through the epidermis layer (of the skin) resulting in hairs, sweat and sebum (oil) emerging from the surface of the skin. The pinkish hue of individuals with fair skin is the result of the crimson color of oxygenated hemoglobin (contained in red blood cells) circulating in the dermal capillaries and reflecting through the epidermis. Different types of glands in the skin release different types of biochemicals. The chemicals emerge from the glands via pores (in the skin), which are tiny channels or openings through the outer (epidermis) layer of skin that open at the outer surface of the skin where they can release e.g. sweat, oils, etc.. These cells are melanocytes and the large number of melanocytes in upper layers of epidermis is abnormal. In normal skin, melanocytes are found only in the basal layer of the epidermis. Sudoriferous Glands-also known as  Sweat Glands . Different Types: 1  Apocrine Glands-ducts open in hair follicles. 2  Eccrine Glands-ducts terminate at a sweat pore at the outer surface of the epidermis.
No, in Eccrine Gland it is on surface of the epidermis.
