What does the integumentary system consist of?

  1. The blood and its circulating factors

  2. The skin and its accessory organs

  3. Glands affecting growth and development

  4. The skeletal system

The correct answer is: The skin and its accessory organs

The integumentary system consists of the skin and its accessory organs such as hair, nails, and glands. Option A is incorrect because the blood and its circulating factors make up the circulatory system. Option C is incorrect because glands affecting growth and development are part of the endocrine system. Option D is incorrect because the skeletal system includes bones, ligaments, and tendons, while the integumentary system includes skin and its appendages. Therefore, B is the only option that accurately describes the components of the integumentary system.
