The Integumentary (dermal) System provides...
Resistance to trauma and infection.
Protective barrier against pathogens. (this applies to the lashes keeping sweat/dust from the eyes & hairs in the nose preventing particulates from entering the lungs)
Vitamin D synthesis
Skin carries out 1st step of synthesis, liver/kidneys complete the process.
Sensation
To heat, cold, pressure, vibration, pain etc
Thermoregulation
Vasoconstricts to retain heat
Vasodilates to promote cooling. (In addition to sweating)
Nonverbal Communication
Facial expression
Appearance (can speak of self-image & emotional state)
Other functions
Prevents body from absorbing or losing water.
Prevents Ultraviolet radiation from penetrating to deeper tissue layers
Connectivity for underlying musculature.
Cushion for bones, muscle, organs.

What is the function of the subpapillary plexus?
The subpapillary plexus is a network of blood vessels located in the papillary layer of the dermis. Its function is to supply nutrients and oxygen to the epidermis and to regulate temperature by controlling blood flow to the skin. Additionally, it plays a role in immune responses and wound healing.
What role does the dermal layer of skin play in maintaining the overall health and function of the skin?
The dermal layer of skin plays a crucial role in maintaining the overall health and function of the skin by providing structural support, regulating temperature, and facilitating the exchange of nutrients and waste products. It also contains important cells that help repair and regenerate the skin when it is damaged.
What is the dermal tissue ground tissue and vascular tissue systems are derived from?
According to the theory of Tunica-corpus, the dermal tissue is derived from tunica and the rest of the tissues namely ground tissue and vascular tissue systems are derived from the corpus. This theory has been accepted by a large number of botanists.
