Rugged is rough.
Rough is something that has wrinkles (folds, folds). Before moving forward with the meaning of the term, it is important to know its etymological origin.
This etymology leads us to the Latin rugosus ( " rough " ), which was formed from the sum of two elements: the noun ruga , which can be translated as "roughness" , and the suffix -osus , which is equivalent to "abundant in » .
Some examples of use of the concept are the following: "The rough face showed that he had had a long and hard life" , "You can't host a banquet with a rough tablecloth" , "The researchers took into account that the rough sheet revealed that someone "He had lain in bed a while before."
Characteristics of the rough
The roughness can be noticed through sight or discovered through touch . If you see a dress full of folds, you can say that it is a rough garment even without touching it.
On the other hand, if someone caresses the hand of an elderly person with their eyes closed, they will also conclude that the skin in question is rough, even though they are not looking at it.
A type of endoplasmic reticulum
The adjective rugoso is used in different contexts. An organelle of eukaryotic cells whose function is to synthesize and transport proteins is known as rough endoplasmic reticulum or rough endoplasmic reticulum . The roughness of this organelle is given by the ribosomes that it presents on the surface of its membrane.
The rough endoplasmic reticulum has channels distributed in the cell cytoplasm, into which the polypeptide chains that develop proteins enter. These proteins are not released into the cytoplasm .
Rough skin presents wrinkles.
The rough skin
We cannot ignore that the term in question is especially related to atopic skin . Specifically, this skin disorder - also called atopic dermatitis - manifests itself through rashes that appear on the person's skin, which is why it is rough and even rough.
Very common in babies is this aforementioned disorder, which has other symptoms such as blisters and scabs, redness of the skin, changes in its color, inflammation, itching... Situations that, in addition, can be encouraged or worsened by circumstances such as colds, contact with chemicals, allergies, asthma, emotional stress, very dry skin problems and extreme temperature changes.
To be able to cope with all these symptoms and keep dermatitis under control, it is best for those who suffer from it to hydrate their skin daily, use hygiene products in the bathroom that are as natural as possible and not wear clothes that have been made with irritating fabrics such as wool.
