Question

derivative of integuments​

Answer 1

Dermal scales are found almost exclusively in fishes and some reptiles. They are bony plates that fit closely together or overlap and form the dermal skeleton. Highly developed dermal scales are seen in turtles, where the bony plates form a rigid dermal skeleton that is attached to the true skeleton. In other reptiles, dermal scales are small and localized on parts of the body, as in crocodilians, certain lizards, and a few snakes.

In biology, integument is the natural covering of an organism or an organ, such as its skin, husk, shell, or rind.[1]It derives from integumentum, which is Latin for "a covering". In a transferred or figurative sense, it could mean a cloak or a disguise.[2] In English "integument" is a fairly modern word, its origin having been traced back to the early seventeenth century. It can mean a material or layer with which anything is enclosed, clothed, or covered in the sense of "clad" or "coated", as with a skin or husk.[1]
