| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| stratified squamous keratinizing epitheliumNo capillaries | epidermis |
| innermost epidermis layer | stratum germinativum |
| where mitosis takes place | stratum germinativum |
| are scattered in the stratum germinativum | merker cells |
| receptors to touch | merker cells |
| antimicrobial peptides | defensins |
| epidermis produces vitamin D from what product when exposed to ultraviolet rays | cholesterol |
| outtermost epidermis layer | stratum corneum |
| waterproof layer of keratin | stratum corneum |
| barrier to pathogens and chemicals | stratum corneum |
| separation of epidermis and dermis | blister |
| burn that is painful but no blister | 1st degree burn |
| burn that has blisters and is painful | 2nd degree burn |
| burn that chars the skin no pain | 3rd degree burn |
| is produced when the rate of mitosis in the stratum germinativum increases | callus |
| pathogens in blood | septicemia |
| tissue fluid evaporates from burned surface, plasma is pulled from capillaries into tissue spaces. blood volume and pressure decreases | circulatory shock |
| also called dendric cells and are originated in red bone marrow and located in the epidermis | langerhans cells |
| ingest pathogens present them to lymphocytes | langerhans cells |
| found in stratum corneum and produce melanin | melanocytes |
| protects stratum germinativum from ultra voiolet rays | melanin |
| made of irregular fibrous connective tissuef | dermis |
| fiberblasts produce collagen and elastin | dermis |
| fiberblasts produce two things in the dermis | collagen and elastin |
| strong | collagen |
| strech and recoil | elastin |
| uneven junction of dermis andd epidermis | papillary layer |
| lots of capillaries | papillary layer |
| made of epidermal tissue | hair follicle |
| contain cells called matrix | hair root |
| where mitosis takes place for hair | hair root |
| at base of hair follicle | hair root |
| where malanin colored hair is pushed to the surface | hair shaft |
| functions of hair | keep dust from eyes and nose insulate the head |
| small smooth muscle attached to each hair that draws the hair follicle upright when exsposed to cold or fear | pilmotor muscle |
| found on ends of fingers and toes | nail follicles |
| produce nails | nail follicles |
| where mitosis takes place in nail | nail root |
| part of nail that consists of living dermis and epidermis | flat nail bed |
| protect ends of fingers and toes from mechanical injury | nails |
| most of these for the cutaneous senses are found in the dermis | receptors |
| name the cutaneous senses | touch pressure heat cold and pain |
| there is a specific receptor for each | sentation |
| free nerve endings are receptors for | pain heat and cold |
| encapsulated nerve endings are receptors for | touch andd pressure |
| a cellular structure around the sensory nerve ending | encapsulated nerve ending |
| purpose of these is to provide the CNS with information about the external enviornment and its affects on the skin | receptors and sensations |
| their ducts open into hair follicles or directly to the skin surface | sebaceous glands |
| sebaceous glands secrete | sebum |
| a lipid substance referred to as oil | sebum |
| inhibits growth of bacteria on body and prevents drying of skin and hair | sebum |
| located in the dermis of the ear canals | ceruminous glands |
| ceruminous glands secrete | cerumen |
| ear wax | cerumen |
| type of sweat gland most numerous in axillae and genital areas | apocrine glands |
| sweat gland that is most active in stressful and emotional situations | aprocrine glands |
| type of sweat gland that is found all over the body | eccrine glands |
| the tube of this sweat gland extends to the skins suface and opens into a | pore |
| the sweat produced by these glands is important in the maintenance of normal body temperature | eccrine glands |
| loss of too much body water in sweat can lead to | dehydration |
| four things lost in sweat | saltwatersodium chlorideurea |
| a nitrogenous waste product of amino acid metabolism | urea |
| organ primarily responsible for removing waste products from the blood and for maintaining the body's proper salt to water proportion | kidneys |
| small arteries that are in the dermis the smooth muscle in their walls permis them to constrict or dilate. importance for maintenance of body temperature | arterioles |
| arterioles dilate | vasodilation |
| arterioles constrict | vasoconstriction |
| regulation of the diameter of the arterioles in response to external temp erature changes is controlled by the | nervous system |
| blood flow to the epedermis is interrupted | decubitus ulcer |
| is one of the connective tissue membranes made of areolar connective tissue and adipose tissue | superficial tissue or subcutaneous tissuesuperficial fascia |
| connects the dermis to the unerlying muscles | superficial facia |
| an extremely serious infection that requires surgical removal of the infected tissue | necrotizing fasciitis |
| a function of subcutaneous tissue | medication administration |
