What is keratin?
EC – What is this

Other than dense connective
tissue, name another type of
connective tissue that would be
found within the dermal layers.
What are blood
vessels/blood?
These structures within
the dermis jut up into the
epidermis with the purpose

What is the lunula?
This structure is

What is the nail

This is the place within the nail
that is the origin of growth.
What is the nail
