AandP exam 2 Flashcards
parietal
on the outside
lines the wall of body cavity,like a wallpaper
visceral
its within the parietal
covers the surface of organs found in body cavities.
membrane
thin sheet-like structures that covers and protect the body surface*,line body cavities,inner surfaces of the hollow organs.
epithelial membranes:cutaneous(skin) membrane, serous membranes, and mucous membranes.
connective tissue membranes.
mucous membrane
epithelial membranes
line body surfaces opening directly to the exterior
serous membrane
epithelial membranes
lines body cavities and covers the surface of organs in those cavities (does not open to the outside)
synovial membranes
connective tissue membranes
line the spaces between bone and joints
produce a lubricant called synovial fluid.
eccrine sweat glands
numerous important,and wide spread sweat glands in the body.secrete watery liquid sweat
apocrine sweat glands
found in the axilla(armpit) and the pigmented skin area around the genitals,thick seretion.
hematopoiesis
formation of red blood cells
osteoblast
bone-forming cells
osteoclast
bone-resorbing cells
diaphysis/shaft
a hollow tube made of hard,compact bone,hence rigid and strong structure light enough in weight to permit easy movement.
epiphysis
ends of the bone– red bone marrow fills in small spaces in the spongy bone,composing the epiphysis
periosteum
a strong fibrous membrane covering a long bone,every where except at joint surfaces,where it is covered by articular cartilage.
endosteum
a thin membrane that lines the medulary cavity.
parts of the skull
8 bones that form the cranium.
14 bones that form the face
6 tiny bones in the middle ear
axial skeleton
skull cranium ear bones face spine vertebrae thorax ribs sternum hyoid bone
