Fig 1Regions of the body and gills where samples were collected for denticle surface profilometry and size measurements. Outline of a white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) indicating where the five regions of tissue were sampled. AG = anterior to gill slit 1 (in green), LE = leading edge of interbranchial skin between gill slits 3 and 4 (in blue), TE = trailing edge of interbranchial skin between gill slits 3 and 4 (in orange), PG = posterior to gill slit 5 (in red), and B = body under the first dorsal fin (in gray).
