Answer:

D- rid the body of waste

Step-by-step explanation:

The skin covers our entire body protecting against external aggressions. It is a great “cover” against fungi, bacteria, chemicals, physics and even environmental factors such as the sun. This protective barrier comes from the epidermis and dermis cells, sebum secretion and sweat, forming a special cover, like a protective cloak. In addition to protection, the skin supports the body and the main intake of vitamin D in the body. However, it is not the skin's function to rid the body of waste.
