Question
Chapter 5.2, Problem 4QC
Summary Introduction
To review:
The difference between thick and thin skins.
Introduction:
The skin is made up of two major components, the dermisand the epidermis. In certain regions of the body like the palms, the skin is found to be thick, while it is thin on regions such as theabdomen. This difference can be explained on the basis of structure–function core principle.
