Skin is a compound organ. It is ectomesodermal. Ectoderm forms the epidermis,and mesoderm forms the dermis. In adult, skin is therefore composed of epidermis and dermis. Epidermis has stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum granulosum, and staratum malpighi. Dermis is a loose connective tissue which contains melanocytes, glands and nerves etc.
