Stratum lucidum
What layer is present in thick skin but not in thin?
Fat?
Reply:Fat (adipose tissue) is correct, but:
"The terms thin skin and thick skin refer to the epidermis only and not to the total thickness of the skin. "
"Thick skin (of the palms and soles) is hairless, lacks pigment and is sometimes described as glabrous. Thin skin, in contrast, has hair, sebaceous glands and is pigmented. "
