INTRODUCTION
Skin: integumentary system
 weighs 8 to10 lbs.
 covers 22 sq. ft. in average adult
5
FUNCTIONS OF SKIN

Provides protective membrane

Skin glands lubricate and cool the skin

Receptor for sensations

Helps maintain body temperature
6
FUNCTIONS OF SKIN
Produces sweat: sweat glands produce watery
secretion that evaporates and cools
Produces sebum: sebaceous glands produce oily
secretion that lubricates skin and hair
Receives sensation: pain, temperature, pressure,
and touch
Thermoregulates: interprets message from heat
center in the brain
7
STRUCTURE OF THE SKIN
Epidermis: outermost, thin cellular
membrane
Dermis: next layer; dense fibrous,
connective tissue
Subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis): thick,
fat-containing tissue

ACESSORY ORGANS OF THE SKIN
HAIR: cells filled with the hard protein;
keratin





Hair follicles: shafts that hold the hair
Five million hairs on body; 100,000 on
head
Melanocytes at the root form the color
Grow .5 inch (1.3 cm) per month
Cutting does not affect growth
11
ACCESSORY ORGANS OF THE SKIN
12
ACCESSORY ORGANS OF SKIN
NAILS: hard keratin plates
covering toes and fingers
lunula
 cuticle
 paronychium

13
ACCESSORY ORGANS OF SKIN
GLANDS: sebaceous and sweat
 Sebaceous glands secrete oily sebum into hair
follicle to lubricate.
 Sweat glands secrete into pores to moisten and
cool.
 Both are subject to bacterial growth.
14
ACCESSORY ORGANS OF SKIN
Sebaceous gland, eccrine sweat gland, and
apocrine sweat gland.
