Skin
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| INTEGUMENT MEANS | COVERING |
| SKIN GUARDS AGAINST EXCESSIVE LOSS OF | WATER, SALT, HEAT AND INVASION OF PATHOGENS |
| TWO TYPES OF GLANDS THAT PRODUCE SECRETIONS | SEBACEOUS GLANDS AND SWEAT GLANDS |
| SEBACEOUS GLANDS PRODUCE | SEBUM |
| SEBUM | LUBRICATES SURFACE OF SKIN AND MINIMIZES WATER LOSS |
| SWEAT GLANDS PRODUCE | SWEAT, A WATERY SECRETION |
| SWEAT | COOLS THE BODY AS IT EVAPORATES FROM THE SKIN'S SURFACE |
| SEBUM AND SWEAT LEAVES SKIN THROUGH | PORES |
| DIFFERENT TISSUES IN THE SKIN MAINTAINING THE BODY TEMPERATURE IS | THERMOREGULATION |
| THREE LAYERS OF THE SKIN ARE | EPIDERMIS, DERMIS AND SUBCUTANEOUS LAYER |
| THIN, CELLULAR MEMBRANE CONTAINING KERATIN | EPIDERMIS |
| DENSE, FIBROUS, CONNECTIVE TISSUE LAYER CONTAINING COLLAGEN | DERMIS |
| THICK, FAT-CONTAINING TISSUE | SUBCUTANEOUS LAYER |
| EPIDERMIS IS COMPOSED OF FLAT, SCALE-LIKE CELLS | SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM |
| IN THE OUTER LAYER OF THE SKIN THE CELLS ARE ARRANGED IN SEVERAL LAYERS CALLED | STRATA |
| THESE LAYERS (STRATA) FORM THE | STRIATED SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM |
| DEEPEST LAYER OF THE EPIDERMIS IS THE | BASAL LAYER |
| THE SUPERFICIAL LAYER OF THE EPIDERMIS IS THE | STRATUM CORNEUM |
| HARD PROTEIN MATERIAL FORMED IN THE STRATUM CORNEUM IS | KERATIN |
| BASAL LAYER CONTAINS SPECIAL CELLS CALLED | MELANOCYTES |
| MELANOCYTES FORM AND CONTAIN A BROWN-BLACK PIGMENT CALLED | MELANIN |
| MELANIN | GIVES COLOR TO THE SKIN |
| DERMIS LOCATED BELOW THE EPIDERMIS IS COMPOSED OF | BLOOD, LYMPH VESSELS AND NERVE FIBERS |
| DERMIS IS COMPOSED OF INTERWOVEN ELASTIC FIBERS CALLED | COLLAGEN |
| COLLA- | GLUE |
| COLLAGEN IS A FIBROUS MATERIAL FOUND IN | BONES, CARTILAGE, TENDONS, LIGAMENTS AND SKIN |
| COLLAGEN FIBERS SUPPORT AND PROTECT | BLOOD AND NERVE NETWORKS |
| INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE INCAPABLE OF FORMING MELANIN ARE CALLED | ALBINO |
| PREDOMINANT CELLS FOUND IN THE SUBCUTANEOUS LAYER | ADIPOCYTES OR LIPOCYTES (FAT CELLS) |
| EPIDERMIS AND DERMIS ARE CALLED | CUTANEOUS LAYERS |
