Keratin, which makes up a large part of the outer layer of the epidermis, called the strata corneum.
Evaporation causes a cooling effect on the skin because as water molecules on the skin evaporate into the air, they take away heat energy with them. This heat transfer process cools the skin surface, providing a sensation of cooler temperature.
The skin on a film of water is called surface tension. It is caused by the cohesive forces between water molecules.
Yes, skin can float on water due to its density being lower than that of water. This is why skin can sometimes form a thin layer on the surface of water, especially when oils or lotions are present on the skin.
Evaporation of water from the skin is a cooling process because it requires heat energy from the skin to convert liquid water into water vapor. This heat energy is drawn from the skin's surface, resulting in a cooling sensation.
When hot water hits the skin, it causes the water on the skin to evaporate quickly, creating steam. This is because the heat from the water increases the temperature of the water on the skin, causing it to turn into vapor.

Water resistant
The fuzz causes water to bead off and not cling to the skin, which makes them more resistant to some types of mold and rot.
No, water does not have skin. Skin is a protective outer layer that covers living organisms, while water is a liquid substance that does not have a skin.
my ball skin
A layer of subcutaneous substance that makes the skin feel softer.
The answer is yes. Fingerprint are left by the oil on your skin, and are therefore water resistant, at least for a while.
Skin is made up of skin cells. The main components of skin are water, collagen, other proteins and lipids.
YES!!! Melanin is the substance that makes the pigment of your skin!!! Carotene, also, is a contributor to skin color, most noticeable on palms and bottom of feet!
It is polar. That is why water sticks to your skin, unlike wax, a nonpolar substance.
Human skin is somewhat waterproof due to the presence of oils and fats on its surface that help repel water. However, prolonged exposure to water can lead to wrinkling and water absorption through the skin. The outermost layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum, provides a protective barrier against water loss from the body.
if you drink alot of water it will asorb into the skin and makes it clean.
