Functions of skin

1.Protection Protection is the primary function of the Skin. It affords protection in four different ways

(i) It protects the underlying tissues from mechanical shocks.

(ii) It holds the body fluids inside and prevents excessive loss of water by evaporation.

(iii) It prevents the entry of harmful substances or disease.

(iv) It protects the body against excess ultraviolet light which is potentially very harmful.

2. Excretion The skin assists in the process of excretion (through sweating) eliminating water, salts and, to a very limited extent, urea. (Since sweating from the skin occurs mainly for temperature regulation, but skin cannot be considered as excretory organ) .
