Overview histology of skin structure showing the 3 main layers.
  1. Epidermis - epithelium (stratified squamous epithelium)
  2. Dermis - connective tissue (dense irregular connective tissue)
  3. Hypodermis - connective tissue (adipocytes and irregular connective tissue)
Histology of the epidermis showing that this can also be divided into sub-layers (stratum). All layer are formed by the same cell type (keratinocytes) that change (differentiate) as they move to the surface and die.
