Question | Answer |
---|---|
epthieal membrane | composed of epthilial tissue underlying the connective tisuue |
connective tissue | composed of t=different types of connective tissues |
Types of epithelial membranes | serous, mucous, cutaneous membrane |
cutaneous membrane | the skin |
serous memebrane | simple squamous, epithelium on a connective tissues basement membrane partial- line walls of body cavaties visceral- cover organs in body cavaites |
pleura | serous memebrane, partial and visceral, lines wall of thoracic cavity and lungs |
peritoneum | serous memebrane, partial and visceral lines wall and cover organs in adominal cavity |
pleurisy | disease , inflammation of the serous membrane in the chest cavity |
peritontius | innflmation of serous membrane in the adominal cavity |
mucous membrane | epithelial, lines surfaces that open to the exterior, produces mucus |
connective tissue membranes | does not contain epithelial produces synovial fluid in between joints and linning of brusal sacks |
stratum germinativum | deepest most layer in the epidermis that continually produces cells , called pigment layer pigment cells called meloncytes produce the brown color pigments melanin |
strantum corneum | outermost layer of keratin filled cells |
epidermis color changes | pink- increase in blood volume or oxygen cyanoisis- blue, decrease in blood oxygen vitiligo- light patch skin loss of malaocytes freckled- small macules |
dermal-epidermal junction | area contact between epidermis and dermis called the spot welds supports epidermis, weakning causes blisters |
upper area of dermis | characterized by parallel rows of peglike dermal papiliea |
thick skin | has parallel ridges and no hair |
thin skin | irregular shallow grooves and hair |
deep area | filled with collagenous and stretchable elastic fibers |
striae | stretch marks |
birthmarks | dermis, malformation of blood vessels strawberry hemangioma port whine stain strok bite |
lanugo | soft hair of fetus |
hair follicule | hair growth from epithelial tubelike structure |
hair papilia | hair growth begins here |
alopecia | hair loss |
arrector pili | smooth muscle that produces goose bumps |
receptors | nerve endings make it able for skin to react like an organ |
missenier tactile corpuscle | receptor dectects light touch |
Lamellar pacini corpuscle | receptor able to detect pressure |
nails | produced by epidermal cells, visble part is nail body , root lies in a groove hidden under the cuticle cresent shaped is a lunlua nail bed changes depending on blood flow |
abnormalities in nails | onocyclosis- sepration from nail body pitting- common in psorasis |
two main types if sweat glands | sweat/ sudoriferous sebaceous |
sweat/ sudoriferous glands | eccrine- most numerous, and important, all ober body, produces sweat out the pores, regulate body heat apocrine- in axilla and genitals, thicker sweat produces odor |
sebaceous glands | produce oil for hair and skin sebum- black heads acne vulgaris- inflammation of sebaceous glands |
first line of defense | microbes, Uv, chemicals, cuts and tears, bruising, skin grafts |
temp regulation | sweat, and blood flow close to surface |
skin lesion | variation is skins normal structure |
elevated lesion cast shadow on their edges | papule- small plaque- large vesicle- blister crust- scab wheal- firm with light center |
flat lesion- don't have a shadow | macule - flat discolered regions |
depressed lesion - cast shadow within edge | ecoration- scratch ulcer- craterlike fissure - deep crack |
first degree | partial thickness only epidermis |
second degree | partial thickness deep epidermal and upper dermis |
third degree | full thickness, epidermis and dermis |
impetigo | skin infection highly contagious , stapylocco or strepococcoal |
tinea | fungal ringworm |
warts | benign caused by papilloma |
boils | furuncles, in hair follicle, staphlococcoal |
scabies | parasite infection |
decubitus ulcers | bed sores when loss of blood flow |
hives | cause y fluid loss in blood vessel |
psoriasis | chronic inflammation with scaly plaques |
Eczema | characterized by papules and crust |
skin cancer | squamous, basal, and melanoma |
squamous | most common hard rasied tumor |
Basal | papules with central crater rarely spreads |
melanoma | mole, most serious types |
