18
Q

Layer of epidermis that includes germ cells

A

Stratum basal

19
Q
  • Oil glands that secrete sebum (oily, lipid-rich secretion) into hair follicles
  • Found everywhere except palms of the hands and soles of the feet
A

Sebaceous glands

20
Q
  • Found in axillary, pubic, anal, and facial region in men
  • Secrete product into hair follicles
  • Produces foul odor
  • Active at puberty
A

Apocrine sweat glands

21
Q
  • Prominent in palms, soles, and forehead
  • Merocrine sweat is a dilute watery solution
  • Secrete product directly onto surface of skin
A

Merocrine sweat glands

22
Q
  • Found in ear
  • Secretes earwax called cerumen
A

Ceruminous glands

23
Q

Function of osteoblasts

A
  • produce new bone matrix during ossification
  • synthesize and secrete osteoid
24
Q

Function of osteoclasts

A

-absorb and remove bone matrix

25
Function of osteocytes
- maintain the matrix - take part in bone repair
26
- Connects occipital bone to parietal bones - Located on posterior portion of the skull
Lambdoid suture
27
-Attaches the frontal bone to the parietal bones
Coronal suture
28
-Extends from the lambdoid suture to the coronal suture
Sagittal suture
29
- Joins temporal bone and the parietal bone of that side - Around the ear
Squamous suture
30
Turning the sole of the foot inward (medially)
Inversion
31
Turning the sole of the foot outward (laterally)
Eversion
32
- Ankle flexion - Digging heel into the ground
Dorsiflexion
33
- Ankle extension - Like tiptoeing
Plantar flexion
34
- Ependymal cells - Astrocytes - Oligodendrocytes - Microglia
Neuroglia found in CNS
35
- Satellite cells - Shwann cells
Neuroglia found in PNS
36
- Found in the CNS. They line the ventricles of the brain and the central canal (spinal cord) - Assist in producing, circulating, and monitoring cerebrospinal fluid
Ependymal cells
37
1) maintain the blood-brain barrier, 2) provide structural support 3) regulate ion, nutrient, and dissolved gas concentrations 4) absorb and recycle neurotransmitters 5) form scar tissue after injury
Astrocytes
38
Where are oligodendrocytes found and what do they do?
- Found in the CNS - myelinate axons and provide structural framework
39
Remove cell debris, wastes, and pathogens by phagocytosis (type of neuroglia)
Microglia
40
- surround all axons in PNS - responsible for myelination of peripheral axons - participate in repair process after injury
Shwann cells
