The skin has three layers
1. The epidermis which is the top layer of the skin. It provides a water barrier and provides skin tone.

2.The dermis is the second layer of the skin which is just after the epidermis. It contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands.

3. The hypodermis is the last and deepest layer of the skin. It is made of fat and connective tissue.

Answer:

The skin is the largest organ of the body, with a total area of about 20 square feet. The skin protects us from microbes and the elements, helps regulate body temperature, and permits the sensations of touch, heat, and cold.

Skin has three layers:

The epidermis, the outermost layer of skin, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone.

The dermis, beneath the epidermis, contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands.

The deeper subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) is made of fat and connective tissue.

The skin’s color is created by special cells called melanocytes, which produce the pigment melanin. Melanocytes are located in the epidermis.
