about the skin system and relate it to other
body systems.
9. *Function
*Parts
*How it works with other
systems
*What else do I know?
*Picture
* Covers and protects the body from injury, infection
and water loss; regulates body temperature;
eliminates waste; gathers info about the
environment; produces vitamin D
* Epidermis; dermis; hypodermis/ fat
* Circulatory- blood vessels running through;
regulating body temperature;
Nervous- nerves/ pain receptors in dermis; regulating
body temperature; receiving info about environment;
Immune- first line of defense
* Oil and sweat glands, hair follicles, pores, blood
vessels and skin tissue in dermis; epidermis is made
up of dead cells; different degree burns affect
different layers of the skin; largest organ in the
body; melanin gives skin its color; skin cells live for
about two weeks
*
10. Warm Up-
When bedrock in Massachusetts is examined, it often appears
scraped and polished. Which of the following most likely caused
the bedrock to appear scraped and polished?
a. crustal deformation
b. frequent earthquakes
c. glacial movement
d. volcanic eruptions
*
11. *
*Students will be able to identify information
about the skin system and relate it to other
body systems.
16. *
*Protect the body from injury,
infection, and water loss
*Helps regulate body
temperature
*Eliminates waste
*Gathers information about the
outside environment
*Produces vitamin D
17.
18. *
*Largest organ of the body
*Made up of three layers
*Epidermis
*Outermost layer
*Thinner than the dermis in most places
*No nerves or blood vessels
*Last about 2 weeks
*Dead cells
*Provides protection
*Dermis
*Inner layer of skin
*Contains nerves, blood vessels, oil glands,
sweat glands, hair follicles
*Hypodermis
*Innermost layer of skin
*Thickest layer
*Fat is stored as an energy reserve

provides the best evidence that glaciers once covered an
area?
a. wide riverbeds
b. U-shaped valleys
c. underground caves
d. groundwater springs

*Parts
*White blood cells
*Function
*Fight disease
*Pathogens- organisms that cause disease
*Infectious disease- a disease that is caused by
the presence of living thing within the body
27. Warm Up-
Which of these is the best indication that
Massachusetts’ climate has changed over time?
a. earthquake
b. forest fire
c. beach erosion
d. glacial deposit

Worksheet
*Answer the questions the best you can with
your group

* How does it work with other
systems?
* What else do I know?
* Picture
*To fight against disease
*White blood cells
*Circulatory- transports the white blood cells;
skin- the skin is the first line of defense,
difficult for pathogens to penetrate;
respiratory- cilia in our nose and respiratory
tract moves pathogens out of our body; skeletal
system- producing white blood cells
*Pathogens- organisms that cause disease;
mechanical, chemical, and biological barriers;
ex- flu, bronchitis, common cold; infectious
disease- disease caused by the presence of a
living within the body; the skin is the most
important mechanical barrier; mucus- slimy
substance that traps pathogens
