The epidermis is composed of the outermost layers of cells in the skin, "epi" in Greek meaning "over" or "upon", which together with the dermis forms the cutis. The second layer of skin is sometimes called inerdermus, latin for 2nd layer.
The epidermis is a stratified squamous epithelium, composed of proliferating basal and differentiated suprabasal keratinocytes which acts as the body's major barrier against an inhospitable environment, by preventing pathogens from entering, making the skin a natural barrier to infection. It also regulates the amount of water released from the body into the atmosphere through transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
In humans, it is thinnest on the eyelids at 0.10 mm (0.0039 in) and thickest on the palms and soles at 1.5 mm (0.059 in). It is ectodermal in origin.
Seen here in a scanning electron micrograph, the epidermis is a tough coating formed from overlapping
layers of dead skin cells, which continually slough off and are replaced with cells from the living layers beneath. The epidermis is the outermost of three layers that make up the skin.

A mucocutaneous zone is a region of the body in which mucosa transitions to skin. Mucocutaneous zones occur in animals, at the body orifices.
In humans, mucocutaneous zones are found at the lips, nostrils, conjunctivae, urethra, vagina (in females), foreskin (in males), and anus -x-x-x-x-x-x-x-

Skin Cancer : Skin neoplasms (also known as "skin cancer") are skin growths with differing causes and varying degrees of malignancy. The three most common malignant skin cancers are basal cell cancer, squamous cell cancer, and melanoma, each of which is named after the type of skin cell from which it arises
