Fibroblasts Produces collagen
Melanocytes Produces a pigment that absorbs UV rays
Langerhans cells Assists in immune responses
7. A person touches a hot cup of coffee. What type of sensory organ detects this
information?: Thermoreceptor
8. Main blood supply for the skin is found in what layer?: Dermis (reticular region)
