Parts and Function of the Skin

The skin is the outer covering of our body.
It protects the body from losing too much
water, injuries, and infection. It helps maintain
body temperature and allows us to have the
sense of touch.
The skin consists of two layers. The
epidermis is the outer layer of the skin on the
surface on which dead skin cells are found.
This is the part that we can see and touch. The
dermis is the inner layer of the skin which
contains blood vessels, nerves, sweat glands,
and oil glands.
 The sweat glands open the surface of the
skin through the pore. The oil glands keep the
hair and skin soft and moist. Touch, pain,
pressure and temperature are sensed by the
nerve endings in the skin. The nerves send
messages to the brain which interprets the
message and we feel the objects.

1. What covers your body from the top of Skin

your head to the sole of your feet?
2. What is the outer layer of the skin? Epidermis
3. What is found under the epidermis? Dermis
4. What does the dermis contain? It contains blood vessels, nerves,
sweat glands, and oil glands.
5. What keeps your hair and skin soft and
moist? Because of the oil produces by the oil
glands
6. What do the sweat glands do? It produces sweat.
7. Which part of the skin carry message to the The nerves of the skin
brain?

VII. Generalization

The skin protects our body and from

losing too much water, infections and
injuries. There are two layers of skin which
is the Epidermis and Dermis. Epidermis is
the outer layer of the skin on which dead
skin cells are found and Dermis is the inner
part which contains blood vessels, nerves,
sweat glands, and oil glands.
Without the presence of the skin in our
body, we will be prone in infections and
diseases. Further, we will also fell the
direct heat of sunlight.

Is it clear class? Yes Sir.
