Which of the following structures is NOT part of the integumentary system?

  1. Hair

  2. Nails

  3. Heart

  4. Skin

The correct answer is: Heart

The heart is the structure that is not part of the integumentary system. The integumentary system primarily consists of the skin, hair, nails, and associated glands. Its main functions are to act as a barrier to protect the body from the external environment, help regulate body temperature, and provide sensory information. Hair and nails are both appendages of the skin and serve specific protective and sensory functions. Skin is the largest organ of the body and plays a vital role in overall health and protection. The heart, on the other hand, is a muscular organ that is part of the cardiovascular system, responsible for pumping blood throughout the body, and does not have any direct relation or role within the integumentary system.
