Scalp – It is composed of soft tissue layers that cover the cranium. It is an anatomic region bordered anteriorly by the human face, and laterally and posteriorly by the neck. It serves as an area where hair can grow and physically, as a barrier that defends the body from foreign irritation. -

Hair Follicle – It is a tunnel-shaped structure in the epidermis (outer layer) of the skin. Hair starts growing at the bottom of a hair follicle. The root of the hair is made up of protein cells and is nourished by blood from nearby blood vessels. Sebaceous glands near the hair follicles produce oil, which nourishes the hair and skin. -

Epidermis – It is the outermost layer in the body. The epidermis is the thinnest layer of skin, but it’s responsible for protecting you from the outside world. Its functions include hydration, producing new skin cells, protection, and skin color. -

Cerebrum – The largest and uppermost portion of the brain. The cerebrum consists of the cerebral hemispheres and accounts for two-thirds of the total weight of the brain. One hemisphere, usually the left, is functionally dominant, controlling language and speech. The other hemisphere interprets visual and spatial information. -

Cerebellum – It can be found just below your cerebrum and behind the upper portion of your brain stem. This is the area at the base of your skull where your head meets your neck. It is primarily involved in coordinating movement and balance. It can also play a role in cognitive functions like language and attention. -

Smooth muscle – also called involuntary muscle, is a muscle that shows no cross stripes under microscopic magnification. It consists of narrow spindle-shaped cells with a single, centrally located nucleus. Smooth muscle tissue contracts slowly and automatically. It constitutes much of the musculature of internal organs and the digestive system. -

Duodenum – The first part of the small intestine. It connects to the stomach. The duodenum helps to further digest food coming from the stomach. It absorbs nutrients (vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats, proteins) and water from food so they can be used by the body.

Large Intestine – The large intestine is the last part of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It is the long, tube-like pathway that food travels through your digestive…
