Q

why skin gets reddish after exercise?

A

25
the bump underneath the epidermis is;
papilla
26
dermis is primarily comprised of ;
connective tissue
27
properties that help skin prevent microorganisms and foreign substances from entering the body;
- lack of blood vessels limits access - secretions from skin glands - multiple layers of dead cells
28
keratinocytes;
reduce water loss protein 'keratin' makes cells durable resist abrasion
29
melanocytes;
skin color
30
langerhans cells;
part of immune system
31
merkel cells;
epidermal cells associated with the nerve endings, detect light touch and superficial pressure
32
cerumen and hair in the ear protect:
tympanic membrane
33
skin does not excrete;
GLUCOSE
34
features of skin to reduce water loss;
- many epidermal and dermal layers - keratin-filled cells of epidermis - multiple layers of dead skin cells in stratum corneum - epidermal lipids
35
2 layer of dermis:
- papillary (superficial) | - reticular (deep)
36
subcutaneous tissue is composed of;
- loose connective tissue | - adipose tissue
37
most superficial layer of dermis and composed of loose connective tissue is;
papillary layer
38
receptors dermis contains;
touch pain variations in temperature changes in pressure
39
only in stratum basale;
- melanin is produced - cells are bound to the basement membrane with hemidesmosomes - keratinocytes of the stratum basal have the highest rate of mitotic division than any other layer of epidermis
40
thermal insulation is in;
subcutaneous tissue = hypodermis
41
function of subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) =
- storage of energy (lipids) | - insulation and padding
42
stratified squamous epithelium tissue is in;
epidermis
43
loose connective and dense irregular tissue is in;
dermis
44
loose connective with collagen and elastic fibers, and adipose tissue is in;
subcutaneous tissue / hypodermis.
45
glands located on the palm and most other ares of the body are;
eccrine sweat glands
46
structural strength of the skin is responsibility of ;
dermis
47
hair growth cycle;
- growth stage | - resting stage
48
function of vitamin D
- stimulate uptake of calcium and phosphate from intestines - reduce calcium loss from the kidneys - promote calcium phosphate release from bones
49
subcutaneous tissue is composed of;
adipose tissue | loose connective tissue
50
epidermis does not;
does not insulate (no-adipose) and regulate temperature (no-vessels)
51
hair color is influenced by;
melanin deposition melanocyte activity genetics
52
inside hair bulb is a mass of undifferentiated epithelial calls;
matrix = produce the hair and internal root sheath
53
epidermal is composed of;
keratinized stratified squamous epithelium
54
subcutaneous tissue is composed of;
- loose connective tissue | - adipose tissue
55
epidermis which produces new keratinocytes and melanin is:
stratum basale
56
keratin=protein associated with the skin, is produced by;
keratinocytes | keratinocytes are abundant in epidermis
57
sweat excretes;
- urea - ammonia - salts
58
dermis contains receptors that detect;
- changes in pressure - touch - variations in temperature - pain
59
vesicle that contain melanin are:
melanosomes (=vesicle) | x (melanin=cell)
60
subcutaneous tissue attaches to;
underlying bone and muscle
61
dermis components;
- blood vessels - fibers - nerve fibers - glands
62
Keratin – what is it? (P144&notes)
Produced by Keratinocytes (cell). | Keratinization = cells die and produce outer layer that resists abrasion and forms permeability layer.
63
melanin
= pigments for skin, hair, eye color
64
melanocyte
Golgi of melanocyte package melanin into vesicles; melanosomes. Keratinocytes phagocytize the tips of the melanocyte.
65
blue tint of skin, nail, fingertips. Condition of not having enough oxygen in blood; impaired cardiovascular or respiratory function.
= Cyanosis
66
jaundice
yellowish sin color when excess bile pigments accumulate in blood. liver disease.
67
hair has 3 concentric layers;
1. medulla (CEBTRAL AXIS) 2. cortex 3. cuticle (surface)
68
Hair shaft and root;
shaft=above skin surface | root=below, base forms hair bulb
69
Hair growth;
- cycles - growth and resting | - hair loss - pattern bolding
70
Arrector pili =
muscle contraction causes hair to stand
71
sebaceous gland (oily lubricant) and apocrine sweat gland empty into;
hair follicle apocrine=found in axillae(armpit), genitalia, anus
72
merocrine/eccrine sweat gland empty onto;
surface of the skin
73
vitamin D
- stimulate uptake of calcium and phosphate form intestine - promote release from bones - reduce calcium loss from kidneys
74
V-D stnthesis;
begins in exposure to ultraviolet, or ingested; fish liuver, egg yolks, dairy products, supplements.
75
skin ages; | sunlight ages skin rapidly
- skin easily damaged; epidermis thins, collagen in dermis decreases, repair occurs slower, decrease number of elastic fibers, loss of adipose tissue from subcutaneous tissue. - become drier; decreased sebaceos gland activity, sweat glands, blood supply, regulate body temp = heat exhaustion - melanocytes function decreases, but face and hands produce age spots. white or gray hair.
76
