GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Stratum basale, also known as stratum germinativum, is the deepest layer, separated from the dermis by the basement membrane (basal lamina) and attached to the basement membrane by hemidesmosomes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Basal cells: These cells are in the lower part of the epidermis, called the basal cell layer. These cells constantly divide to form new cells to replace the squamous cells that wear off the skin’s surface. As these cells move up in the epidermis, they get flatter, eventually becoming squamous cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -The basal cell layer (stratum basale, or stratum germinosum), is a single layer of cells, closest to the dermis. It is usually only in this layer that cells divide. Some of the dividing cells move up to the next layer. The prickle cell layer (stratum spinosum) is the next layer (8-10 layers of cells).
