The Integumentary System
Overview: The Integumentary System
Your skin (or integument) is your body’s largestorgan, weighing in at around 15 percent of yourbody weight. The Integumentary Systemconsists not only of your skin, but also your hair,nails, sweat, and sebaceous glands—the so-calledaccessory organs. In our exploration of theIntegumentary System, we will focus ourattention on the nails and the layers of the skin inthe dissection views and the detailed structure ofthe skin and its accessory organs in the histologyviews.

Some of the structures in the dissections are not
part of the integumentary system, but are
important structures in the vicinity. These
nonintegumentary structures are tagged with blue
pins to distinguish them from the green pins of
the integumentary system.

• Click the SELF-TEST button at the top of the screen.
• From the Select test topic menu select Skin andsubcutaneous tissues.
• From the Select region menu select Thin skin andsubcutaneous tissues.
• Take the SELF-TEST. After completing this SELF-TEST, repeat the tests for each of the other optionsavailable in the Select test topic and Selectregion menus.

The Select test type menu will not always
have the option to choose between Click to
