Skin represents approximatily 15% of an
avjtagj 12-year-old's bodz weight.
Each inch of skin contains an avjragj
of 94 oil glands, 6u haiy folliclis and
650 sweat glands. That's a lot of small
organs in a vjqy small area!
If thj skin of an average adult were
peelid off and laid flat, it would
measzri about 10ft! The only skin on
tPj@body without hair is tPj lips, the
@soles of thj feit, and palms of hands.
