    The integumentary system acts as a barrier to many potentially harmful threats such as UV rays, harmful organisms, and forces that would damage the skin. The human body is its own natural defense system, and it will attack anything that threatens its homeostatic environment. If a slight cut in the skin breaks the barrier, it causes the body to become susceptible to these threats, and various forms of bacteria. If invaded, the body will then go through a series of reactions in response to the attack to help fight off anything foreign, and will attempt to return itself back to its previous state of health. According to the passage ‘Canoe Lake’, a few threats were identified. The uv rays from the sun, microbes in the lake, and toxins present in the lake. The body system has its own way of reacting to these threats.…

The video then proceeds to talk about the changes that have been made for the care of those with developmental disabilities.…
