The integumentary system (skin) reacts different on different sun intensity (different length exposure to sun).

For example, moderate exposure to the sunlight contributes to the production of melanin and vitamin D by the body. On the other hand, high exposure to sunlight can have negative health effects such as sunburn, which is an inflammatory response to DNA damage caused by UV radiation.

lawyer [7]

Answer:

The body has two lines of natural defense to protect against infection. The first are physical barriers, such as the skin, body secretions and mucous membranes.
