9.3 Your skin

Slide 2 - Tekstslide

Planning


Learning objectives

  • You will learn how your skin protects you and helps to keep your body at the right temperature.


  • You will also learn how wounds heal and how cancer develops.




Slide 3 - Tekstslide

Discuss with your neighbour
- What are the functions of your skin?

Slide 4 - Tekstslide

Functions of the skin
  1. Regulate your body temperature
  2. Protection against dirt and pathogens
  3. Protection against the sun


Slide 5 - Tekstslide

Anatomy of the skin
The epidermis: 
  • Stratum corneum (dead skin cells). 
  • Stratum basale (cell division). 


The dermis

Subcutaneous tissue

Slide 6 - Tekstslide

Regulation of body temperature
Temperature: around 37°

Senses of heat and senses of cold measure temperature and transmit impulses to your brain.

What are impulses? 

Slide 7 - Tekstslide

Cooling down
  • Blood vessels in your skin become wider.
  • Heat release to the environment.
  • Skin is red
  • Your sweat glands produce more sweat.


Slide 8 - Tekstslide

Warming up
  • Blood vessels in your skin narrow.
  • Skin is pale
  • You're going to shiver.

Fat layer? Goosebumps?


Slide 9 - Tekstslide

Wound healing
  1. Blood vessel narrows.
  2. Clotting (clumping of platelets)
  3. Platelets burst; fibrinogen is released.
  4.  Formation of fibrin threads.
  5. Blood clotting


Slide 10 - Tekstslide

Protection against sunlight
Ultraviolet radiation (uv-radiation) 

Cells in the stratum basale make small grains of brown colouring: pigment.

Pigment: ensures that UV radiation cannot penetrate your skin as deeply.

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

Development of cancer
