what are the three layer of the skin epidermis , dermis and hypodermis
what is the epidermis top layer , made up of mostly avascular epithelial tissue
what is dermis Middle layer ,considered the true skin , capillaries feed blood to this layer that is primary made up collagen and adipose
what is the hypodermis deepest layer
Two prime cell types in the epidermis layer keratein inocytes and melanocytes
Keratinocytes produces keratin which proofs and protects
Melanocytes produces melanin which provider UV protection and determines skin pigments
The epidermis level had five levels stratum Basale, Stratum Spinosum, Stratum granulosum, Stratum lucidum and stratum Coroneum
stratum Basale The deepest level of the epidermis
Stratum Spinosum bonding and transitional layer
Stratum granulosum keratinocytes become granulized and began to die
Stratum lucidum not present in all people and may only be in hand and feet where the skin is thicker
stratum Coroneum outer layer of the epidermis contains dead cells that flakes off continuously
Collagen is a group of structural protein found not only in the skin but ligaments , blood vessels and bone .
Elastin is a protein that functions like elastic - it stretch's and pulls to the original shape .
The dermis contains two types of glands Sudoriferous and sebaceous glands
Sudoriferous gland is excrete sweat
sebaceous glands is produce sebum , oily substances that lubricates and waterproofs the skin and hair
Hypodermis is a subcutaneous tissue layer that separates the dermis from the underlying tissue and organ . Consisting primarily adipose tissue , it aborbs shocks and provides thermal insulation .
Hair follicles are small tube- shape craters contained in the epidermis layer that enclosed them extents to the dermis layer where it is nourished
The human body had how many follicles over millions
shape of the follicles determine the hair texture and is genetically determined
Hair Papilla connective tissue at the base of the hair follicle
Arrector pili small muscles that hold each follicle in place
Hair bulb or Root nipple shape where the hair papilla is located
fingernails and toes nail grow out of what Dermis layer
Nail Plate is the most visible part of the nail comparable to the hair shaft primarily shaft
Nail bed the skin underneath the nail plate
Nail root where the nail growth begins , comparable to the hair root
Nail Matrix a layer of cells sits underneath the nail root . it is a vacular layer that nourishes the nail root . contains nerves and populates keratinocytes
Nail folds where the lateral and proximal edges of the nail bed meet the skin
eponychium mostly known as the cuticle direct contact with the nail matrix and root providing a water proof seal
Lunula only living part of the nail that is visible , whitish crescent moon shape
What is the purpose of melanin in the epidermis ? Melanin is produced by Melanocytes
What occurs in the proliferative phase of the wound healing ? The wound begins to filling with new tissue that forms a lining in the bed of the wound allowing a scar to form .
Four phases of the skin to heal Inflammatory , Epithelialization, proliferative and remodeling
Merkel Discs superficial and respond to sustained pressure and perceive texture
Free Nerve endings respond to temperature and pain
Meissner Corpuscles Superficial and highly sensitive to light touch and vibration .
Krause Corpuscles respond to light pressure and vibration
Ruffini end Organs respond to continuous touch and pressure
Pacinian Corpuscles Respond to quick , fleeting touch and vibrations
Factors that can slow the healing process Aging, chronic illness, suppressed immune system , reduced sensation in the skin, some medication , cancer treatments, inadequate nutrition , stress , repeated trauma to the wound site .
Inflammatory phase Phase begins immediately may last up to 24 hours-
Epithelialization phase When a temporary protective barrier is formed to keep out bacteria and other pathogens
Proliferative phase wound begins to fill in and a scare is formed in the lining of the wound
remodeling phase When healing process is complete
Angiogenesis formation of new blood vessels
Keloid Scar result of an overgrowth of scar tissue
Hair follicles are developed in the womb after birth no new follicles are developed
Acute wounds
Chronic Wounds Repeated trauma , continued pressure
Diabetic ulcers mostly on the feet , mostly a result of bone malformation , peripheral neuropathy and arterial disease
Pressure ulcers pressure preventing blood flow to the area
First degree burn minor burn only effecting the epidermis
second degree burns effect the epidermis and dermis
Thirds degree burns effect the epidermis , dermis and the hypodermis
Venous Ulcers occurs in lower leg as a result of weaken veins or damaged or ineffected venous flaps or valves .
Fourth degree burn burn reached the tendon and the bone
what occurs in the Proliferative` phase of a wound healing A scare is formed
. What is the meaning of corne/o-// cornified , keratinized
. What is the meaning of derm/o- Skin
. What is the meaning of melano- Dark and black
. What is the meaning of sub- Below
. What is the meaning of ap- separtion from , deviation from
. What is the meaning of pil- Hair
What is the meaning of hemo- Blood
. Cells of stratum corneum contain large amounts of protein Cells of stratum corneum contain large amounts of protein

What is the acessory skin structure that lubricates the eye ?
Deepest dividing epithelial layer of the skin ?
A deep pressure receptor in the skin Deep pressure and vibration is transduced by lamellated (Pacinian) corpuscles, which are receptors with encapsulated endings found deep in the dermis,
Modified sweat gland that produces ear wax ?
Superficial layer of the epidermis
The dermis is the _____________ to the epidermis
The layer of the skin that contains blood vessels is ?
Finger prints and footprints are formed by ?

What are the four most important functions of the skin?
Compare and contrast the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis. How are the outermost cells of the epidermis replaced ?
Define apocrine ? sweat gland that are always associated with hair follicles / mainly in the armpits
Define arrector pili ?
Define cerumen ? wax
Define dermis ? skin
Define eccrine ?
Define epidermis ?
Define hair Follicle
Define integumentary system ? Integumentary mean covering
Define keratin ?
Define Melanin ? a dark pigment that colors the skin and protects it from sunlight and harmful rays
Define Melanocyte ? THe cells that produce melanin

Define sebum ?
Define stratum Basale
Define subcutaneous layer /hypodermis/superficial fasica connects the skin to the deep fasica covering the underlying muscles
