Chapter 5 Integumentary System Flashcards
Which is the largest system of the body
Integumentary
The integumentary is made up of two parts what are they
Cutaneous and accessory structure
cutaneous membrane has two compotes what are they
Outer epidermis superficial epithelium (epithial tissue)
What makes up the bulk of the skin also connective tissue and is vascularized
Inner dermis
What originates in the dermis also extends to the epidermis to the skin?
Accessory structure
What is part of the accessory structure
Hair,nails, and multicellular exocrine glands
Protects underlying tissue and organs,excretes salt,water and organic wastes(glands), maintains body temperature (insulation& evaporation) synthesizes vitamin D3 stores lips and detects touch, pressure,pain and temperature
Function of skin
What is the thick skin
Epidermis
What two pigments is skin color influenced by
Carotene and melanin
Orange yellow pigment, found in orange vegetables, accumulates in epidermal cell and fatty tissues of the dermis, and also can be converted to vitamin a what pigment is this
Carotene
Yellow brown or black pigment, produced by melanocytes in Stratum germinativum,stored in transport vesicles, and transfer to keratinocytes what pigment is this
Melanin
True or false epidermal cells produce cholecalciferol known as vitamin D3 also in the presence of UV radiation
True
True or false insufficient vitamin D3 could calls rickets which is a Boeing of the bones
True
Liver and kidney converts vitamin D3 into Calcitrol to aid in what
Absorption of calcium and phosphorus
The dermis has a present of two types of fibers what are they
Collagen fibers and elastic fibers
Which fiber is very strong, resist stretching but Bends easily also provides flexibility
Collagen fibers
Which fiber permits stretching and then recoil two original length also the flexibility of collagen fibers to prevent damage to tissues
Elastic fibers
Lies below the integument, stabilizes the skin, allows separate movement, is made of elastic Areolar and adipose tissue , Is connected to the reticular layer of the integument by connective tissue fibers, has few capillaries and no vital organs, and is the site of the subcutaneous injections using hypodermic needle’s
The subcutaneous layer or hypodermis
What makes up the accessory structures
Hair, hair follicles, sebaceous glands, sweat glands and nails
Integumentary assessor he structures are derived from embryonic epidermis are located in dermis and projects through the skin surface
Hair, hair follicles, Sebaceous glands, sweat glands, and nails
What are two accessory structures of hair
Arrector pili and Sebaceous glands
Involuntary smooth muscle, causes hair to stand up, produces goosebumps is part of what accessory structure of the hair
Arrector pili
