2nd-Dermis. 3rd-Hypodermis. The difference between the Epidermis and Dermis is the Epidermis is their functions. The Epidermis strives to: Where as the Dermis's function is respiration. The thousands of tiny blood vessels or capillaries stop here, from where they supply the outer skin layer.lrighty the epidermis, the upper or outer layer of the skin, is a  tough, waterproof, protective layer. The dermis, or inner layer, is  thicker than the epidermis and gives â¦ the skin its strength and  elasticity.
If that parcel descends again to higher pressure, its temperature then INCREASES at the rate of 1Â°C per 100 meters or 5 1/2Â°F per 1,000 feet. This is known as the dry adiabatic lapse rate. MOIST (SATURATION) ADIABATIC LAPSE RATE.When a mass of air is lifted, it cools at the dry adiabatic lapse rate of 5 1/2Â°F per 1,000 feet as long as it remains unsaturated (relative humidity below 100 percent).
When the environmental lapse rate decreases more rapidly with height than the dry adiabatic rate, the atmosphere is. absolutely unstable. In a conditionally unstable atmosphere, the environmental lapse rate will be ____ than the moist adiabatic rate and ____ than the dry adiabatic rate.
