goose skin
Goose skin, also known as "goosebumps" or "gooseflesh", is a temporary change in the skin when it becomes rough and covered with tiny bumps, usually in response to cold, fear, shock, or intense emotion. This happens due to the contraction of miniature muscles that are attached to each hair. Each contracting muscle creates a shallow depression on the skin surface, which causes the surrounding area to protrude.
