18. Short answer question III

 

The cell membrane of skin cells, which lacks a dermiscell wall epidermis and function more like a  isotonichypertonichypotonic solution than a cellular fluid, is directly exposed to soap solution or detergent water.

This causes skin cells to contract, giving the appearance that your fingers are shrinking. ExosmosisOsmosisEndosmosis is the term used to describe the process by which water leaves a cell in a hypertonic solution.
