🗑
show cells of stratum germinativum, contain melanin  
🗑
show spiny layer, 8-10 layers of keratinocytes bound by desmosomes, are spiny because the cells shrink until cytoskeletons stick out

🗑
Skin color depends on   show
🗑
Melanin   show
🗑
Carotene   show
🗑
show protects skin from sun damage, produces skin color (depends on melanin production NOT number of melanocytes)  
🗑
UV radiation   show
🗑
show blood vessels dilate from heat, skin reddens/ blood flow decreases, skin pales  
🗑
show bluish skin tint caused by severe reduction in blood flow or oxygenation  
🗑
