I think this layer is Stratum lucidum. This is a thin, clear layer of dead skin cells in the epidermis named for its translucent appearance when viewed using a microscope. It is also readily visible under the light microscope only in areas of thick skin, which are found on the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet.
It is located just above the stratum granulosum and below the stratum corneum.

Describe three observations an astronaut might make while viewing Russia at night.(Site 1)

olga55 [171]

<span>One observation would be the physical size of Russia compared to other countries, despite a lack of visible borders from space. In addition, part of Russia's outline would likely be obscured by the various clouds and objects in the stratosphere; this would allow the astronaut to view potential cloud and weather patterns on earth. Also, an astronaut could see outlines of Russia's geography such as mountain ranges.</span>

2. Can the classification system change? If so, provide an example of a way it has changed in the past. (2 points)

Elis [28]

Yes, classification system is still evolving together with our knowledge.

But, before changing the name (e.g. of a species) it is important to collect and gather a wealth of information in order to support that change. Classification system is still evolving. The reasons for the changes are DNA analyzes. It is the new way for discovering relation between organisms and put them in the right context (classification used to be based on morphological characteristics).

Change in classification can be shown in an example of fungi. In the 90s fungi classification included only phyla Chytridiomycota and Zygomycota. Now theyhave been classified mainly on the basis of characteristics of their sexual reproductive structures. So, there are 7 phyla now: Microsporidia, Chytridiomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Neocallimastigomycota, Glomeromycota, Ascomycota, and Basidiomycota
