Anatomy 1 Exam 5 Flashcards
skin
Integument
– outermost layer of skin, vascular only organ in body that regenerate
Epidermis (cuticle)
– “true skin”; vascular; 2nd degree burns occur here
Dermis (corium)
Derivatives structure of skin
B. Derivatives structure of skina. Nails: b. Hair:c. Glands:d. Sensory components:
protective structures for extremities
Nails:
3 Types of Glands (derivatives structure of skin)
Glands:i. Sudoriferous (sweat): ii. Sebaceous (oil): iii. Cerumen (ear wax):
rid of salt or waste products
Sudoriferous (sweat):
keep skin moist
Sebaceous (oil):
sticky substance design to keep particular out of deep inner ear
Cerumen (ear wax):
hot, cold, pain & pressure
Sensory components:
Integumentary/Skin System Principle functions
a. Sense of touch – prick skin with needle, tuning fork on ankleb. Protection for deeper tissuesc. Regulates body temperature – arrector pili muscle that constricts to keep heat inside bodyd. Excretory organ – heat, salt
muscle that constricts to keep heat inside body
arrector pili
exchange of oxygen from the outside air for waste gases/carbon dioxide
Respiration (commonly called breathing): 1. External respiration: 2. Internal respiration:
at alveoli; 1st place in tiny air sacs where outside air/oxygen is exchange with waste gases/carbon dioxide in right living
External respiration:
at body capillaries (single layer blood vessels); exchange of oxygen from outside air for waste gases/carbon dioxide that occur in the capillaries
Internal respiration:
most anterior feature of face; 1st organ where air passes from outside of body into lungs
Nose
2 opens located outside the body and inside the nose
Anterior nares (nostrils)
spaces inside the nose
Nasal cavities:
4 air spaces located in bones near or along side nasal cavity
Paranasal sinuses:
4 Types Paranasal sinuses:
i. Frontal air sinuses: ii. Maxillary air sinuses: iii. Sphenoidal air sinuses: iv. Ethmoidal air sinuses:
located in frontal bone behind eyebrow
Frontal air sinuses:
located in maxilla or upper jaw (“Antrum of Highmone”)
Maxillary air sinuses:
large single air space located in the sphenoid bone located in base of skull
Sphenoidal air sinuses:
