The integumentary system components include skin, hair, nails, sweat glands, and oil glands. Functions include protecting the body; helping regulate body temperature; eliminating some body waste; helping make vitamin D; and detecting sensations such as touch, pain, warmth, and cold. 2. The ______ system includes bones and joints of the body and their associated cartilages. Functions include supporting and protecting the body; providing a surface area for muscle attachments; aiding body movements; housing cells that produce blood cells; storing minerals and lipids (fats) 3. The muscular system components include muscles composed of skeletal muscle tissue, so-named because it is usually attached to bones. Functions include producing body movements, such as walking, stabilizing body position (posture), generating heat 4. The nervous system components include the brain, spinal cord, nerves and special sense organs, such as the eyes and ears. Functions include generating action potentials (nerve impulses) to regulate body activities; detecting changes in the body’s internal and external environment, interpreting the changes and responding by causing muscular contractions or glandular secretions. 5.
