Detailed explanation-1: -The hypodermis layer includes: Adipose tissue: Adipose tissue is a fatty tissue that consists mostly of adipocytes.
Detailed explanation-2: -The hypodermis contains fibroblasts (a type of cell commonly found in connective tissues), 10adipose tissues (fat cells), macrophages (a type of white blood cell that protects the body from harmful bacteria), and connective tissues that hold blood vessels and nerves.
Detailed explanation-3: -Adipose tissue present in the hypodermis consists of fat-storing cells called adipocytes. This stored fat can serve as an energy reserve, insulate the body to prevent heat loss, and act as a cushion to protect underlying structures from trauma.
Detailed explanation-4: -The hypodermis (subcutaneous layer, or superficial fascia) lies between the dermis and underlying tissues and organs. It consists of mostly adipose tissue and is the storage site of most body fat.
Detailed explanation-5: -The hypodermis consists of well-vascularized, loose, areolar connective tissue and adipose tissue, which functions as a mode of fat storage and provides insulation and cushioning for the integument.
