High skin resistance can produce severe skin burns but prevent the current from entering the body
When skin resistance is low, the current may cause little or no skin damage but severely burn internal organs and tissues
The approximate range of skin contact resistance typically varies from about 1,000 to 100,000 ohms, depending on factors such as skin condition, moisture, and pressure applied during contact. Dry skin generally has higher resistance, while wet or damaged skin can significantly lower resistance. This variation is important in contexts like electrical safety and bioelectrical measurements.
The longer the conductor the greater the end to end resistance.
High resistance means insulation
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.
When skin resistance is low, the current may cause little or no skin damage but severely burn internal organs and tissues
Yes, it has a high resistance as it is an insulator.
In Resistance 2 there is no code for the cloven skin, but you can still purchase it in the Resistance 2 category in the PlayStation store for a mesely 0.99 cents.
yes, batteries have high internal resistance. The higher the resistance the lower power you get out of the batter. Therefore if you no power you have very high resistance.
When the skin is wet, the electrical resistance of the human body decreases significantly, making it easier for electricity to flow through the body. This can increase the risk of electric shock and serious injury or even death. Wet skin provides a more conductive path for electricity to travel, bypassing the body's natural resistance mechanisms.

A 0.4 ampere current thru the body can kill, but it normally takes a fairly high voltage to get that current thru the skin, which has high resistance.

The Skin
What happens is ur skin stretches leavin stretch marks.
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
Low resistance lets electrons through easy, and high makes it harder for them to pass. Basically electricity is harder to flow through high resistance and vice versa.
