24 Human hair and skin layers. scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section through human skin with a hair (upper centre) emerging from the surface. The skin layers, from top to bottom, are the stratum corneum (flaky, brown), composed of flattened, dead skin cells that form the surface of the skin. The dead cells from this layer are continuously being shed and replaced by cells from the living epidermal layer below (red, extending downwards around hair follicle). The lowest layer seen here is the dermis (grey-brown, lower centre). This is a thick layer of fibrous connective tissue that supports and nourishes the epidermis.

125 Why is heatstroke more likely to occur under hot and humid conditions? 1 High humidity lowers the rate of evaporation of sweat, so the body cannot lose heat effectively and heatstroke is likely to occur.
127
126 Why may death result when the body temperature is too high? 2 When the body temperature is too high, enzymes cannot work properly and cells fail to function.
128
127 What are the treatments and precautions for heatstroke? 3 To treat heatstroke, we should move the person to shaded areas and wrap the body with cool wet towels.
