Melanocyte is located in stratum basale of epidermis layer. It produces melanin that protects skin from UV light

35. Collagen fiber, elastin and reticular fiber

These 3 components collectively make loose connective tissues

Collagen fiber made of collagen, elastic fiber made of elastin and reticular fiber made of thin collagen.

Desmosomes accumulate in stratum spinosum and gives prickle cell layer.

38. Holocrine

It is a process in which the secretion is released with dead cells. Eg Sebaceous gland
