• Hyalin cartilage is present in respiratory tract and articular capsule.

46. Option D) Located below the dermis

• Stratum basale is the innermost layer of epidermis that facilitates regenration of cells.
• It is located just above to dermal layer.

47. Option A) Papillary region lies below the reticular region

• Papillary region is superfical layer of dermis responsible for fingerprints.
