Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5CT
Summary Introduction
To explain:
If it is possible for a woman who has never been pregnant to have stretch marks on the abdomen.
Introduction:
The skin is made up of two primary tissue layers- the epidermis, and the dermis. The epidermis forms the skin's surface layer that contains stratified epithelial squamous tissue. The many cell layers of the epidermis protect it from potential damage due to abrasion on the skin. It also reduces the loss of water from the skin. The epidermis lies in the dermis. The structure of the dermis provides the skin with most of its strength.
