What connects the dermis to the epidermis?

  1. Papillary layer

  2. Reticular layer

  3. Stratum Basal

  4. Subcutaneous layer

The correct answer is: Papillary layer

The correct answer is the papillary layer. The papillary layer is a layer of the dermis that connects to the epidermis. It is composed of thin collagen fibers that form a network of support for the epidermis above. This connection between the dermis and epidermis is important for the overall structure and function of the skin. The reticular layer, stratum basal, and subcutaneous layer do not directly connect the dermis to the epidermis, making them incorrect choices.
