Which layer of skin resembles many tiny granulates due to its cell shape?

Stratum lucidum
Stratum corneum
Stratum granulosum
Stratum spinosum

The correct answer is: Stratum granulosum

The Stratum granulosum is the layer of skin that resembles many tiny granules due to the shape of its cells. This layer is responsible for producing keratin, a tough protein that provides strength and water resistance to the skin. The Stratum lucidum and Stratum corneum are both outer layers of skin, but do not have the same appearance as the granulous layer. The Stratum spinosum is the layer below the Stratum granulosum, and its cells have a spiky shape rather than a granular one.
