  2. Your skin sheds about 30,000 to 40,000 dead skin cells every minute.
  3. Nails and hair are also part of the integumentary system, made of the same protein called keratin.
  4. Your skin can detect different sensations like touch, temperature, and pain through specialized nerve endings.
  5. The skin helps regulate body temperature by sweating and shivering to maintain a stable internal environment.
