Thin Skin. The epidermis differs from that of thick skin in having thinner stratum spinosum, granulosum, and corneum, and lacks the stratum lucidum (Thin Skin 1). The dermis is not arranged in ridges, but does project into the epidermis as true papillae. However, no epidermal ridges are produced
Answer:
b. pass through pores in the capillary endothelium
Explanation:
The fenestrated capillaries and sinusoids have pores in their endothelium. These pores or the intracellular clefts vary in size between the fenestrated capillaries and sinusoids. Sinusoids have larger intracellular clefts. The pores serve as a passage for the movement of water-soluble substances, proteins and other substances that cannot cross the hydrophobic interior of the cell membranes.
Water-soluble hormones also cannot pass through the capillary walls. Therefore, these hormones pass through the pore or the fenestrations present in the endothelium of capillaries.
Something that requires a lot of energy, such as active transport, as more mitochondria means more respiration.
