the skin resistance increases to a large amount because of the sweating
due to stress,
for example-our finger tip become slightly wet when we take stress and its resistance increases
AC current tends to flow towards the surface of a conductor due to what is known as the skin effect. This phenomenon acts to reduce the effective cross-sectional area of a conductor and, therefore, elevate its resistance. This elevated value of resistance is known as AC resistance.The skin effect increases with frequency. At 50/60 Hz, the skin effect is quite moderate and, so, the AC resistance is not significantly higher than the true (or DC) resistance of the conductor.As to 'which value of resistance is correct?' Well, the natural resistance of a conductor is directly-proportional to its cross-sectional area and resistivity, and inversely-proportional to its length and the type of current plays no part in this. This is the value that a DC current would 'see', so you could say that this would be the 'correct' value of resistance.

This will heat the skin up.
A patient becomes micro shock sensitive if the skin resistance is bypassed such as by an intravenous infusion, or a catheter. Most of the body's resistance is in its dry skin. If the skin gets wet, salts go into ion form, thus, lowering the resistance.Ê

The skin effect occurs in conductors carrying alternating currents, where the tendency is for the current to flow towards the surface of the conductor. The effect increases with frequency. At radio frequencies, the skin effect is so pronounced, that there is little point in using solid conductors, so tubes are used instead.The skin effect is responsible for the so-called 'AC resistance'. This is because the skin effect acts to reduce the effective cross-sectional area of a conductor, thus increasing its resistance compared to when a DC current passes through the conductor.
DEFINITION: Nonuniform density of current due to its characteristic to flow more at the surface of the conductor than that of the other section of the conductor called Skin Effect in power system.EFFECT: Due to the skin effect, whole section of the conductor can not be utilized properly. Moreover, skin effect causes increment in effective resistance of the conductor and in power loss.
The higher the frequency of the current is, the further the travelling electrons are from the center of the conductor section. That's skin effect. In very high frenquencies, such an effect even increases the resistance of the conductor because the current has less place to travel in.
inflammation! Yes it can. When you are stressed, it can cause your skin to produce more oil and you in effect to break out.

human body resistance to electricity when skin is wet is 1,000 ohm and when skin is dry its resistance is 100ohm
Yes. The resistance does depend on frequency. The reason is 'skin effect'. When an alternating current is passed through a conductor only a small portion of the conductor, usually called the skin depth carries the current. The value of skin depth is inversely proportional to frequency. As the frequency is increased, the skin depth decreases. But the value of ac resistance is directly proportional to frequency, or in other words, inversely proportional to skin depth. Thus, at higher frequencies, ac resistance is higher. This is the reason why we multiply the dc resistance by an empirical value 1.2 or 1.3 to calculate its ac equivalent.
High skin resistance can produce severe skin burns but prevent the current from entering the body
dont smoke or do drugs. avoid stress. makeup can damage skin over time. use sunblock when doing out door activities.
Resistance is inversely-proportional to the cross-sectional area of a conductor. When a d.c. current flows, the charge carriers distribute themselves across the whole of the conductor's cross-section. When a.c. current flows, due to something called the 'skin effect', the charge carriers tend to flow towards the surface of the conductor -thus reducing the effective cross-sectional area of the conductor. So, the resistance to a.c. is higher than the resistance to d.c. At mains' frequencies (50/60 Hz), the 'skin effect' is relatively low, but the effect increases significantly with an increase in frequency. So the difference between 'd.c. resistance' and 'a.c. resistance' increases as the frequency increases.
how barbiturate effect the body is that you get bumps all over your skin.................
When skin resistance is low, the current may cause little or no skin damage but severely burn internal organs and tissues
