Ans: The layers of the dermis include: Papillary layer and Reticular layer. The papillary layer is made up of thin areolar connective tissue. The tissue is loose which it allows phagocytes and defensive cells to wander freely. The defensive cells patrol the area for bad bacteria. The reticular layer is deeper and contains the majority of the thickness of the dermis layer. The layer is coarse, irregular, dense fibrous connective tissue. The thickness includes adipose cells and thick bundles of collagen fibers.
