The subcutaneous layer (hypodermis) of the skin is primarily composed of adipose tissue (fat) and connective tissue. Carbohydrates are not the main component of this layer. Dead skin cells are part of the epidermis (outer layer), and blood vessels are present but not the main structural component of the subcutaneous layer. So the correct option is the one with "Adipose tissue/fat".
