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.
