I used Autodesk Sketchbook and Canva to create this histology art of the integumentary system tissues.
The integumentary system is the body’s biggest organ, serving to protect and maintain the internal environment by forming a physical barrier between the external and internal environments.
Hair is made up of dead keratinized cells arranged in columns. The hair is made up of three layers: a central medulla, or core, surrounded by a keratinized cortex, and an outside third layer that is highly keratinized and forms the hair’s thin hard cuticle.
In the trachea and bronchi, the respiratory epithelium is pseudostratified and largely comprises of three cell types: cilia cells, goblet cells, and basal cells. The ciliated cells, which are found over the apical surface, help mucus move across the airway tract.
Sweat glands are simple tubular exocrine glands located in the superficial hypodermis on the dermis’ periphery. They use coiled secretory ducts to discharge their contents onto the skin’s surface.
