Functions of the Skin
•
•
•
•
•
Protection
Vitamin D Production
Sensory Organ
Temperature Regulation
Protection against UV Light
Layers of the Skin
• Epidermis
• Dermis
• Subcutaneous
Epidermis
• Outer layer of skin
• Avascular - no blood vessels
Dermis
• Layer of skin under the epidermis
• Made up of collagen and elastic
connective tissue fibers
• Contains the blood vessels, glands,
hair follicles, and nerve endings of
the skin
Subcutaneous Layer
• Not part of the true skin
• Connective tissue that connects the skin
to the muscle and organs underneath
• Also called the hypodermis
• Contains nerve endings responsible for
deep pressure
• May contain enlarged fat cells in obese
individuals
Nails
• Plates of tightly packed cells of the
epidermis
• Helps to grasp and manipulate
small objects
Glands of the Skin
• Sudoriferous Glands (Sweat
Glands)
• Sebaceous Glands (Oil Glands)
Sudoriferous Glands
(Sweat Glands)
• Glands secrete sweat - a mixture of:
– water
– ammonia
– sugar
- salts
- urea
-lactic acid
- amino acids
- uric acid
-ascorbic acid
• Primary function - regulates body
temperature by evaporation of water
• Eliminates some waste products
Sebaceous Glands
• Oil glands usually associated with hair follicles
• Secrete an oily substance called sebum a
mixture of fats, cholesterol, protein and
inorganic salts
• Keeps hair from drying out and becoming
brittle
• Keeps skin soft and pliable
• Inhibits growth of certain bacteria
Hair
• Composed of dead (Keratinized)
skin cells
• Primary function is protection
– guards the scalp from injury and
sunlight
– eyebrows - eyelashes protect the eye
– ears and nostrils keep out foreign
objects
• Helps regulate body temperature
• Touch receptors associated with
hair follicles
Hair Structures
