The integumentary system is a great example of the hierarchy within the levels of anatomical organization. For this assignment, you are going to apply what you learned about these levels, specifically to the integumentary system.  Your job will be as follows:  Choose one of the following distinct integumentary organs to discuss: Skin Nails Hair Glands Pick TWO components that are higher on this pyramid than the organ you chose, and describe how they contribute to the function of this organ. For example I could choose the following: Organ: Skin TWO components: Epidermis (tissue level) Stratum corneum (cellular level) I would then go on to describe how the epidermis and stratum corneum contribute to the overall function of the epidermis       id like you talk about "Nails" but not sure how to put it together. Please help
