The Tyndall effect‚ also known as Tyndall scattering‚ is light scattering by particles in a colloid or particles in a fine suspension. It is named after the 19th-century physicist John Tyndall. It is similar to Rayleigh scattering‚ in that the intensity of the scattered light depends on the fourth power of the frequency‚ so blue light is scattered much more strongly than red light. An example in everyday life is the blue colour sometimes seen in the smoke emitted by motorcycles‚ in particular two-stroke machines

5 The Integumentary System FOCUS: The integumentary system consists of the skin‚ hair‚ nails‚ and a variety of glands. The epidermis of the skin provides protection against abrasion‚ ultraviolet light‚ and water loss‚ and produces vitamin D. The dermis provides structural strength and contains blood vessels involved in temperature regulation. The skin is attached to underlying tissue by the hypodermis‚ which is a major site of fat storage. CONTENT LEARNING ACTIVITY Hypodermis ❛❛The hypodermis
