Epidermis: Stratum luicdum is _______ found on thick skin

1 answer

The stratum lucidum is a thin, translucent layer of the epidermis that is found only in thick skin. Thick skin is located on areas of the body that experience significant friction and abrasion, such as the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. The stratum lucidum provides an additional layer of protection in these areas.
