Q

Q76. How does skin maintain body temperature of someone becomes too warm?

A

Blood vessels in the skin enlarge to increase the amount of blood that flows through them. This allows heat to move from the body into the outside environment. Sweat glands in the skin produce perspiration. As the perspiration evaporates, it carries heat into the air. The hair on the arms lay down flat.

Q

Q77. What is the circle of life for the epidermis cells?

A

Epidermal cells begin life deep in the epidermis where cells divide to form new cells. The new cells gradually mature and move upward in the epidermis as new cells form beneath them. About two weeks after they are formed, the cells die and become part of the surface layer of the epidermis. After another two weeks, dead. Ellis in the surface layer are shed and replaced by the dead cells below.
