Down:
2) Cells that undergo mitosis regularly and quickly.3) Top layer of Skin - Forms a barrier. Multi-layered. Cells closest to the free surface are squamous. Cells closer to basal surface are cuboidal. 4) Spindle-shaped cells that form connective tissue while it is developing. Once it is completely surrounded by the matrix, it is called a fibrocyte. 6) Multiple layers of cells. 9) Containing a waterproofing protein. Dead cells are pushed to the top and do not get a supply of nutrients from diffusion. 10) They all have secretory regions and ducts through which the chemicals travel to the surface.
