The epidermis acts as a barrier that protects the body from ultraviolet (UV) radiation, harmful chemicals, and pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Historically, it was thought that the function of the epidermis was to regulate fluid and protect the body from mechanical injury.

Answer:

Question:-

Write the functions of Epidermis.

Answer:-

The primary function of the epidermis is to protect your body by keeping things that might be harmful out and keeping the things your body needs to function properly in.

Bacteria, viruses and other infectious agents are kept out, helping prevent infections on your skin. Water and nutrients are kept in for the body to use. Body parts that are more susceptible to injury, like the soles of your feet and palms of your hands, have a thicker epidermis for even better protection.

Specialized cells in the epidermis help protect your body too.

hope it's helpful :-)
