the origin of the epidermis, while the mesoderm gives rise to the dermis. 5.8a Integument Development By the end of the seventh week of development, the surface ectoderm is composed of a simple cuboidal epithelium. These epithelial cells divide, grow, and form a layer of squamous epithelium that flattens and becomes a covering layer called the periderm and an underlying basal layer (figure 5.12). The basal layer will form the stratum basale and all other epidermal layers. By the eleventh week of

body does not reject the tissue as “foreign.” However, autografts may not be feasible in certain situations, such as when the amount of skin damaged is so great that a transplant would not be possible. Most burn victims have damaged too much of their own skin to be able to provide autografts for all of their burned areas. A syngenetic (sin-je˘-net‘ik; syn = together) graft, also called an isograft, is a tissue transplant from one person to a genetically identical person (i.e., an identical twin).
