What cause fingers to look wrinkled after soaking water?
It used to be thought that this was a result of water entering skin cells because the water outside the skin is hypotonic compared to skin cells. However, this is NOT the case. The change in the skin (wrinkling) is now thought to be an involuntary reaction by the body's autonomic nervous system — the same system that controls breathing, & heart rate. The wrinkling is believed to be caused by blood vessels constricting below the skin.
