Q

create Langers lines, which is imperative to wound healing

A

reticular layer of dermis

25
Q

epidermal appendages arise from the […] and migrate down into the dermis

A

ectoderm

26
Q

how does a hair follicle develop?

A
  1. epidermal proliferation from stratum basale form and penetrate dermis
  2. terminal end (hair bud) invaginates to form hair papilla
  3. hair papilla fills with mesoderm (allows vessels and nerve endings to develop)
27
Q

the mesenchyme surrounding an epithelial hair sheath forms [2]

A

dermal root sheath
arrector pili muscle

28
Q

hair grows via continuous proliferation of epithelial cells at the […] that pushes the hair up to the surface

A

follicle base/hair bulb

29
Q

do not lose cytoplasm in the secretions

A

eccrine

30
Q

release some cytoplasm in secretions

A

apocrine

31
Q

what type of sweat glands form in the axilla?

A

apocrine

32
Q

secretions from the […] gland help form the vernix caseosa

A

sebaceous

33
Q

persistence of parts of the mammary line causes

A

polythelia (accessory nipple)

34
Q

polymastia occurs when the remnant of the mammary line develops into a

A

complete breast

35
Q

when lactiferous ducts open into an epithelial pit that failed to evert, the result is

A

inverted nipples

36
Q

epidermal thickenings appear at the tips of digits and form

A

nail fields

37
Q

nail fields grow proximally, forming a

A

nail root

38
Q

superficial fascia layer that attaches skin to the underlying deep fascia of bone/muscle

A

hypodermis

39
Q

congenital absence of skin, generally isolated lesions on scalp

A

cutis aplasia

40
Q

skin is inelastic and hangs loosely due to decrease in elastin

A

cutis laxa

41
Q

fragile, bruisable skin that heals with peculiar scars

A

Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

42
Q

caused by a mutation in collagen causing altered collagen synthesis

A

Ehlers-Danlos

43
Q

autosomal dominant disease of keratin that causes skin to be fragile and blister easily

A

epidermolysis bullosa

44
Q

the connective tissue of the dermis of the skin of the back is derived from

A

dermatome region of somite

45
Q

gives rise to some muscles of the back, body wall, and limbs

A

myotome

46
Q

gives rise to vertebrae, ribs and rib cartilage

A

sclerotome

47
Q

gives rise to cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and blood vessels

A

lateral plate mesoderm

48
Q

gives rise to dermis of back

A

dermatome

49
Q

gives rise to mammary glands

A

epidermis

Q

mammary glands begin as […] which give rise to […]

create a physical barrier against pathogens and produce proinflammatory chemokines

A

keratinocytes

52

ectoderm

56
Q

nail fields give rise to the

A

nail roots

57
Q

nail fields form at

A

distal tips of digits

then form nail roots

58
Q

keratinocytes originate in the […] and migrate throughout the epidermis

A

stratum basale

59
Q

increase the surface area of the dermis and maintain contact with the overlying epidermis
prevent blistering
