What can be inferred from the different specialized structures found in vertebrate integument?
Describe the development of the integument from surfaceectoderm and mesoderm
The vertebrate skin has various functions like protection, temperature regulation,elimination of waste, water conservation, radiation protection, vitamin synthesis, andenvironmental responsiveness. Elucidate how these functions relate to the structure ofa vertebral integument. Provide at least two specific examples.

- The ratio of cells to extracellular matrix is a major difference between epíthelial tissues and connective tissues. What relationship between epithelial tissues and connective tissues is important for the survival and function of epithelial tissues? The thick, pink-staining fibers that you are viewing on the photograph are what type of fiber? The very fine, dark-staining (blue purple) fibers are what type of fiber? Most of the cells that you see are fibroblasts. They can be identified by the dark-staining nuclei scattered throughout the specimen. The cytoplasm of these cells stains weakly and cannot be easily identified. Refer to your text and describe the function of these cells. Lack of vitamin Cin the diet interferes with the ability of fibroblasts to produce collagen. How might this affect connective tissue function? rords DFocusarrow_forwardMatch each epidermal layer in column B to its description in column A.Column A Column B(1) Desmosomes and shrinkage artifacts give its cells “spiny”projections.
