In old age skin became wrinkled due to A)Reduced blood ciruclation in skin B)Reduced elasticity epidermis C)Reduced fatty tissue in skin D)Increased melanin and melanocytes in skin
Option B) The loss of the elastic tissue (elastin and collagen) in the skin with age causes the skin to hang loosely. This is caused by a flattening of the area where the epidermis and dermis (layer of skin under the epidermis) come together. Skin becomes more easily bruised. This is due to thinner blood vessel walls as we age.
