Chapter 5 The skin is composed of two distinct regions‚ the epidermis and the dermis. These two areas are firmly attached to one another along a wavy borderline. The epidermis (epi = upon) composed of epithelial cells‚ and is the outermost protective shield of the body. Epidermis - Structurally‚ the epidermis is a thick keratinued stratified squamous epithelium consisting of four distinct cell types and five distinct layers. Cells of the Epidermis - Cells populating the epidermis include: keratinocytes

Research Proposal Project Topic and Hypothesis Our experiment is about how people in various countries react to two people in a physical fight. We chose this topic because we wanted to see if people would be willing to step in to stop a fight‚ even if it meant they may be injured. Also‚ we wanted to know if race had anything to do with a person’s willingness to step in‚ thus we are conducting the study in multiple countries. Along with this we want to see if the gender of the people fighting
