Solution

The correct order of the layers of the skin from the uppermost to lowermost is:

d) Epidermis, Dermis, Subcutaneous tissue

Here's a step-by-step explanation:

  1. Epidermis: This is the outermost layer of the skin that provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone.

  2. Dermis: Located beneath the epidermis, it contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands.

  3. Subcutaneous tissue: This is the deepest layer of the skin, containing fat and connective tissues that house larger blood vessels and nerves. It acts as an insulator, helping regulate body temperature.
