The stratum corneum. It is composed of dead, keratinized cells that form a protective barrier on the skin's surface.

Question 2

In which layer of the epidermis does cell division (mitosis) primarily occur?

The stratum basale (also called the stratum germinativum). New skin cells are produced here and migrate upward toward the surface.

The epidermis (outer layer) and the dermis (inner layer). The dermis contains collagen, elastin, blood vessels, and nerve endings.

Question 4

Rosacea. It is a chronic condition that cosmetologists must recognize because aggressive treatments can worsen it.
