6.1: Introduction
• Two or more kinds of tissues grouped together and
performing specialized functions constitutes an organ.
• The skin and its various structures make up the
integumentary system.
4
6.2: Skin and Its Tissues
• Composed of several tissue types
• Maintains homeostasis
• Protective covering
• Retards water loss
• Regulates body temperature
• Houses sensory receptors
• Contains immune system cells
• Synthesizes chemicals
• Excretes small amounts of wastes
5
Skin Cells
• Help produce Vitamin D needed for normal bone
and tooth development
• Some cells (keratinocytes) produce substances
that stimulate development of some white blood
cells

Layers of Skin
• Epidermis
• Dermis
• Subcutaneous layer
• A.k.a hypodermis
• Beneath dermis

There are five (5) layers of the epidermis:
• Stratum corneum
• Stratum lucidum (only in thick skin – palms, soles)
• Stratum granulosum
• Stratum spinosum
• Stratum basale

6.4: Regulation of
Body Temperature
• Regulation of body temperature is vitally important
because even slight shifts can disrupt metabolic reactions.

Regulation of Body
Temperature

Control center
Hypothalamus
detects the deviation
from the set point and
signals effector organs.
Receptors
Thermoreceptors
send signals to the
control center.
Effectors
Dermal blood vessels
dilate and sweat glands
secrete.
Stimulus
Body temperature rises
above normal.
Response
Body heat is
lost to surroundings,
temperature drops toward
normal.
too high
Normal body
temperature
37°C (98.6°F)
too low
Stimulus
Body temperature
drops below normal.
Receptors
Thermoreceptors
send signals to the
control center.
Response
Body heat is conserved,
temperature rises toward normal.
Effectors
Dermal blood
vessels constrict
and sweat glands
remain inactive.
Control center
Hypothalamus
detects the deviation

Effectors
Dermal blood
vessels constrict
and sweat glands

If body temperature
continues to drop,
control center signals
muscles to contract
involuntarily.

Heat Production and Loss
• Heat is a product of cellular metabolism
• The most active body cells are the heat producers and
include:
• Skeletal muscle
• Cardiac muscle
• Cells of certain glands such as the liver
• The primary means of heat loss is radiation
• Also there is conduction, convection and evaporation
32
Problems in Temperature
Regulation
• Hyperthermia – abnormally high body temperature
• Hypothermia – abnormally low body temperature
33
6.4 Clinical Application
Elevated Body Temperature
34
6.5: Healing of Wounds and Burns
• Inflammation is a normal response to injury or stress.
• Blood vessels in affected tissues dilate and become more
permeable, allowing fluids to leak into the damaged tissues.
• Inflammed skin may become:
• Reddened
• Swollen
• Warm
• Painful

6.6: Lifespan Changes
• Skin becomes scaly
• Age spots appear
• Epidermis thins
• Dermis becomes reduced
• Loss of fat
• Wrinkling
• Sagging
• Sebaceous glands secrete
less oil
• Melanin production slows
• Hair thins
• Number of hair follicles
decreases
• Nail growth becomes impaired
• Sensory receptors decline
• Body temperature unable to be
controlled
• Diminished ability to activate
