The integumentary system is mainly composed of the skin and its appendages, which aid in protecting the body from various kinds of damage. Tiny glands in the skin secrete oils that enhance the barrier function of the skin. Take up this histology integumentary system trivia questions quiz and get to see what new facts about this system and how it operates.
