Addie3137,

The epidermis is the outer layer of the skin. It's function is too "make a skin waterproof it acts as if its a barrier, and it helps give us skin tone." Epidermis also helps us have homeostasis which is how the body keeps cool or warm. Epidermis contains sweat glands which produce sweat once the body reaches it's limit when exposed to heat, and sweating helps keep the body cool.

Hope this helps!

How water deposits soil sediment and rock
n200080 [17]
<span>A river can only carry a load if it has adequate energy. When the energy drops below a certain level, therefore, the load is dropped. In the Thalweg (the line of fastest flow), more load is carried, and this is also where the erosion occurs, adding more load. On the inside of a meander, for example, since the Thalweg is on the outside, the velocity on the inside is very low, and so deposition occurs. On the very inside, water merely trickles past. This is incapable of transporting load, so it deposits it until it is able to carry all of it.</span>

Sergio [31]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The correct place to click on any of the  double peak showing between  2500 and 3000cm^{-1} on the uploaded question

Explanation:

The group which is being highlighted is an Aldehyde  functional group denoted by this structure (=C-H)

This groups stretch on the infrared spectrometer gives two medium intensities peaks

Its stretch comes at  2820 - 2850 cm^{-1}  peak 1

and at  2720 - 2750 cm^{-1}  peak 2

So the correct click would be on any of the two peaks between 2500 - 3000 cm^{-1}  region
