 * __What are the Integumentary Systems functions and roles?__**

The integumentary system is really important! First of all it protects your insides. It basically protects your body. Your skin holds your organs from falling out, your nails protect your fingertips, and your hair is just your hair! Hair grows from something called a hair follicle. It is located in the dermis. That is a layer of your skin.

Here are the layers of your skin:
 * 1) Epidermis
 * 2) Dermis
 * 3) Subcutaneous Layer (Hypodermis)


 * __Organs Included:__** Hair, Nails, Skin, Sweat glands, and Sebaceous glands.
