Question | Answer |
epidermis | superficial, made up of stratified squamous |
Dermis | Deep, mainly connective tissue |
Subcutaneous layer | Made of loose connective tissue and fat, insulates the body from hot and cold |
Cutaneous Membrane | skin |
Serous Membrane | lines body cavities and covers the surfaces of organs |
Mucous Membrane | lines body surfaces that opening directly to the outside (digestive, urinary, respiratory |
Visceral portion | covers the surface of the organs found in the body cavities |
Parietal Portion | lines the walls of the body cavity |
First Degree Burn | surface of epidermis, reddening, no blistering, minimum tissue damage |
Second Degree Burn | Deep epidermis, damage to upper levels of dermis, damages sweat glands, hair follicles, sebaceous glands, pain, blisters, swelling, fluid loss, scarring |
Third Degree Burn | Full thickness, complete destruction of epidermis, complete destruction of dermis, into SubQ layer, may involve muscle and bone, danger fluid loss, risk of infection, no pain. |
Derma Papillae | form the ridges and grooves that make up the fingerprints and footprints |
Ball & Socket Joint | Shoulder & hip |
Hinge joint | Elbow |
Pivot Joint | Atlas & Axis |
Saddle Joint | Thumb |
Gliding Joint | Vertebrae |
Condyloid | Wrist |
Osteoblast | lays down bone matrix; builds up bone |
Osteocyte | maintains bone |
Osteoclast | tears down bone |
Synarthrosis Joint | has no movement, fibrous connective tissue, holds 2 bones together (sutures in skull) |
Amphiarthroses Joint | slight movement, cartilage between bones, allows some movement (symphysis pubis, joints between vertebrae) |
Dianthrosis Joint | Freely movable, joint capsule, joint cavity, many types; majority of joints in body |
Diaphysis | long portion of the long bone |
Medullar Cavity | Core |
Epiphyses | bone ends |
Articular Cartilage | on the ends |
Periosteum | exterior shell |
Endosterum | interior shell |
Synovial Membrane | secretes lubricating fluid (synovial fluid) that allows easier movement with less friction |
Osteons | structural unit of compact bone tissue made up of concentric layers of hard bone matrix and bone cells |
Concentric Lamella | ring of calcified matrix surrounding the Haversian canal |
Canaliculi | an extremely narrow tubular passage or channel in compact bone |
Lacuna | space or cavity |
Osteocyte | bone cell |
