In a growing fetus, fingerprints form where the cells of the stratum basale meet the papillae of the underlying dermal layer (papillary layer), resulting in the formation of the ridges on your fingers that you recognize as fingerprints.

It highlights relevant nursing interventions, including pharmacological and nonpharmacological treatments, and the importance of culturally sensitive care. The section emphasizes evaluating the effectiveness of care, addressing skin integrity, and managing potential secondary infections.

The part of the hair that is located within the follicle is called the hair root, the only living part of the hair. The part of the hair that is visible above the surface of the skin is the hair shaft. Sensory receptors in the hair follicles can sense when the hair moves, whether it is because of a breeze or the touch of a physical object.

The skin is an effective physical barrier against microbial invasion. The skin’s relatively dry environment and normal microbiota discourage colonization by transient microbes. The skin’s normal microbiota varies from one region of the body to another. The conjunctiva of the eye is a frequent site for microbial infection; deeper infections are less common.

These layers of differing cells and tissues are held to underlying structures by connective tissue. Together these layers provide that structure necessary for the overall functions of the integumentary system.

Figure \PageIndex5: Cells of the Epidermis The cells in the different layers of the epidermis originate from basal cells located in the stratum basale, yet the cells of each layer are distinctively different.

These glands are found all over the skin’s surface, but are especially abundant on the palms of the hand, the soles of the feet, and the forehead.
