♥This week, we have discussed about the integumentary system (reported by me :D) ♥
As part of my report, i gave them the functions of the integumentary system...well, integumentary system protects our body from invasion of disease caused by pathogens,helps the body from drying out,acts as a storage for fats, also skin provides vit. D and helps to regulate body temperature.
♥skin has its three layers : Epidermis is the first layer of the skin it has no blood vessels and is made up of smaller stratified squamous epithelium, Dermis is the second, which is more thick and denser, and Subcutaneous fascia the last layer of the skin... composed of fatty tissues and of course fats. ♥
♥Hair and nails are also part of my report in integumentary system. Nails are specialized epithelial cells originating from the nail root. Cuticle, nail body, lunula are some of its parts while the hair, it helps to regulate body temperature it also protects our sensory organs...♥
♥Burns (ouch) burns has four distinct degrees...1st degree burn damages only the epidermis, 2nd degree burn affects the whole epidermis and a portion of dermis, while 3rd degree burn damages the three layers of skin completely...4th degree burn is a kind of burn that penetrates to the bone!!!♥
♥ I also discussed the diseases with my power point presentation...the next day, they had a quiz (I'm the reporter so i don't have to take the quiz) ...this week also, we had a check up quiz for integumentary (different from the first quiz)♥
