Which system includes skin, oil, and sweat glands?

  1. Nervous system

  2. Musculoskeletal system

  3. Respiratory system

  4. Integumentary system

The correct answer is: Integumentary system

The integumentary system is the correct choice as it encompasses the skin and its associated structures, including oil glands (sebaceous glands) and sweat glands (sudoriferous glands). This system serves as a protective barrier for the body while also playing roles in temperature regulation, sensation, and the production of vitamin D. The skin itself is the largest organ of the body, and its glandular components are essential for maintaining moisture, supporting skin health, and regulating body temperature through perspiration. Other systems listed, such as the nervous system, musculoskeletal system, and respiratory system, do not involve skin or its associated glands. The nervous system primarily deals with transmitting signals throughout the body, the musculoskeletal system focuses on movement and support through bones and muscles, and the respiratory system is concerned with the exchange of gases in the body. None of these systems include the skin and its functionalities, confirming the integumentary system as the correct answer.
