Skin cross-section, showing the epidermis, dermis, perichondrium, elastic cartilage, a myelinated nerve fiber, and a muscular artery.   The skin or integument accounts for about 15% of the human body weight. Although various pathogens affect the skin, it also prevents the entry of many to the body's interior.
