- A concept that I find very essential to me is the integumentary system, specifically the skin. It fascinates me how the largest organ in our body has so many functions, such as temperature regulation and protecting our bodies from foreign matters. After the lesson, I found myself valuing my skin even more. I think I have taken for granted how my skin works since it's just there. I used to shave my legs and arms quite often because I was criticized for having hair on my limbs, however, the lesson refreshed me again with why the hair is important. As someone who is clumsy, my skin is so prone to abrasions, especially since I have cats who like to scratch. With this in mind, I would definitely change my habits to protect my skin even more, not just externally, but internally as well, such as finally putting sunblock on my skin whenever I'm going out and drinking more water to hydrate myself.
