Solution
The skin has two major layers including the epidermis. Explanation: The skin (integument) is body's largest organ and it approximately 1.6 to 1.9 square meters in the average-sized adult. The integumentary system describes the skin and its appendages: the hair, nails, and skin gland. Epidermis is above the dermis and is made of keratinized squamous ET (epithelial tissue).
