I am your Skin Made of 3 layers within
I’m the largest organ of your body But up to 4 mm thin
I’m your skin protected by Keratin
I help control your core temperature And my colors caused by the pigment Melanin
Let’s take a look at the skin and the 3 layers within
With this picture drawn to study anatomy so let's begin
The first layer you’ll see is the outer skin that's on me
it is called the Epidermis Which are the skins surface everywhere
that I be
The 2nd layer shown here Is called the Dermis just so we’re clear
It’s a thick layer of living tissue full of cool stuff soon I’ll share
The 3rd layer’s the Hypodermis The innermost and thickest skin
It’s a fat insulation and padding for your body to keep heat in
I am your skin Made of 3 layers within
I’m the largest organ of your body But up to 4 mm thin
I’m your skin protected by Keratin
I help control your core temperature And my colors caused by the pigment Melanin
Let's take a deeper look at the layers I just introduced to you
And find out the important jobs they play and all that they do
The Epidermis is the first layer And is waterproof as well
mostly made up of Squamous Cells Which are flat and scale-like swell
Under that, we have these round cells they are called Basal Cells
Then Melanocytes that produce Melanin
Which Determines the color of your skin
Then there's the Dermis The lower inner layer of skin
it plays an important role Of the three layers, we discuss within
It contains Blood and Lymph Vessels That carry cells that fight infection and
disease And Glands that produce sweat
Which help regulate the body temperature you need
The Pores also secret Sebum Oil so your skin doesn’t dry out
And Hair Follicles that make and hold your hair
which you need without a doubt
I am your skin Made of 3 layers within
I’m the largest organ of your body But up to 4 mm thin
I’m your skin protected by Keratin
I help control your core temperature And my colors caused by the pigment Melanin
This is Hypodermis Which connects your skin to Muscle and Organs
It’s main functions to store Fat And protect you from an impact on the skin
The Integumentary System is what I’m a part of as skin
Which includes skin, hair, Nails, and Exocrine Glands
from the body, you live in
Please Take care of your skin And of your body every day
You only have one body So keep its systems healthy
