( Jaundice)

23
Q

poled , oxidized blood under skin , purple brown

A

brushing ( hematoma )

24
Q

The bottom of epidermis

A

Epidermal ridge ( the bottom is ridged)

25
Helps lock the epidermis into the dermis
Dermal Pepill
26
Has a high blood supply , hypodermic needle used to get drugs in quick
the hypodermis
27
milk producing , modified apocrine sweat gland
Mammary
28
oil producing
Sebaceous
29
inhibts bacterial growth , lubricates and conditons epidermis / haor ... mostly connected/associated with hair follicles ( lips nipplples and eyelids not included )
Sebaceous glands
30
Natural antibacterium
Sebrum
31
Sweat producing glands
Sudonferous glads
32
What are the types of sudonferous glands
Merocrine (ecrine) , Apocrine
33
"watery" sweat !! widley aroudn the body ( areas you sweat) at surface of the skin
Merocrine
34
associated w/ hair follice , especially abundant in arm pit and around nipples ..... Bacteria eating protein for the reason you stink when sweating
Apocrine
35
What are the functions of skin
Protect excretes- salts , water and organic waste maintains - body temp synthesizes - vitamin D stores - lipids detects - touch , pressure, pain and temp
36
creates line of cleavage
The dermis
37
what are the 3 regions of hair ( made in foliciles )
Bulb - enlarged bottom end root- form bulb to skin surface shaft - exposed part beyond skin surface
38
What is hair soemtime assocaited with
Oil glands apocrine glands small muscle called arrector pili
39
How does hair grow
occurs via specialized cells called trichocytes in the matrix ( part of the bulb) melanocytes involved
40
what are the two hair types
Vellus- fine hair located over much of the body , arms terminal - course hair , located on the scalp , eyebrow , eyelashes , in the nose , armpit and groin
41
Hair color?
based on the amount and type of melanin pigment as well as the shape of each hair
42
Round layers of hair =
straight har
43
less symmetrical oval hair shape
wavy curl
44
What happens when hair lightens
less melanin is being produced / melanocytes slow down
45
Sense of touch/pressure
Tactile disc
46
In dermis …lamellatied ( layers) corpuslcles
sense of vibration
47
sense of temp , pain etc - located near the end of the dermis where the edpidermis and dermis meet - very important for human survival
Free nerve ending ( sense of pain and temp)
48
Our skin is the major way we interact with our envionement - pain , heat , itch etc
SENSORY RECEPTORS
49
What are the parts of the nail
Matrix - growing part of nail The body of the nail covers the nail bed - The nail bed - good a for accessing oxygen levels of a patient
50
what is the deepest layer
Stratum basale
51
supply with nerves,, allows you to be aware of your surroundings and differentiate among different kinds of sensory signals.
innervation
