The Integumentary System
The skin, hair, nails, and a variety of glands make up the integumentary system.
The skin is the largest organ in the body.

The Integumentary System
The integumentary system:
• barrier against infection and injury.
• regulates body temperature.
• removes waste products.
• provides protection against UV (ultraviolet) radiation from the sun.

The Skin
The Skin
The skin is made up of two main layers—the epidermis and the dermis.
Beneath the dermis is a layer of fat (hypodermis) and loose connective tissue that insulates the body.

The Skin
Epidermis
The outer layer of the skin is the epidermis.
Has two layers.
• The outer layer is dead cells.
• The inner layer is living cells.

The Skin
Cells in the inner layer undergo rapid cell division (mitosis), producing new cells that push older cells to the surface of the skin.
Older cells flatten and their organelles disintegrate.
Older cells also begin making keratin, a tough, fibrous protein.
When these cells die, they form a waterproof covering on the skin’s surface.

The Skin
The epidermis also contains melanocytes, which are cells that produce melanin, a dark brown pigment.
Melanin protects the skin from sun damage.
Differences in skin color result from different amounts of melanin and where melanocytes are distributed.

Dermis
The inner layer of the skin is the dermis.
The dermis contains collagen fibers, blood vessels, nerve endings, glands, sensory receptors, smooth muscles, and hair follicles.

The Skin
The dermis contains two major types of glands:
• sweat glands
• sebaceous, or oil glands

Just read (Do Not Write Down)
If your body gets too hot, sweat glands produce sweat.
When sweat evaporates, it cools the body.
Sweat also gets rid of wastes from the blood, along with water.

The Skin
Sebaceous glands produce an oily secretion called sebum.
Sebum spreads out along the surface of the skin and helps to keep the skin flexible and waterproof.

Hair and Nails
Hair
Hair:
• protects the scalp from UV light.
• provides insulation from the cold.
• prevents dirt and other particles from entering the body (ie the nose and ears)

Hair and Nails
Hair is produced by hair follicles, which are tube-like pockets of epidermal cells that extend into the dermis.
A hair is a column of cells that have filled with keratin and died.
The oily secretions of sebaceous glands help maintain the condition of each individual hair.

Hair and Nails
Nails
Nails grow from rapidly dividing cells in the nail root.
The nail root is located near the tips of the fingers and toes.
During cell division, cells fill with keratin and produce a platelike nail that covers and protects the fingertips and toes.
