Skin
In this research paper we will be talking about the skin. It will cover the skin's structure, various disorders and ailments of the skin and some of the problems people have with their skin.

Benign tumors can appear as lymphomas, moles and warts. Lymphomas are soft, white lumps of fat that appear on the surface of the skin. Moles are groups of pigment cells that form a flat or raised, brown or black spot on the skin. Warts are caused by a virus and can appear anywhere on the skin. Most warts are dry, rough and raised. Another problem with the skin is burn
