175
Q

Dermal strength and elasticity

A

Collagen fibers → very strong and resists stretching, easily bent or twisted, limit flexibility to prevent tissue damage -
Elastic fibers → permit stretching and then recoil to original length, provide flexibility
Fibers and water → provide flexibility and resilience (skin turgor)

176
Q

Tension lines

A

Produced by parallel bundles of collagen and elastic fibers in the dermis

177

178
Q

What 2 pigments influence skin color?

A

Melanin and carotene

179
Q

Melanin

A

Produced by melanocytes
Stored in intracellular vesicles
Protects skin from uv radiation

180
Q

Carotene

A

Can be converted to vitamin A which is req for the maintenance of epithelia, synthesis of photoreceptor pigments in eye

181
Q

Hair

A

Accessory structures of the integument

182
Q

Functions of the hair

A
  1. Protect and insulate
  2. Guard openings from particles and insects

183
Q

Types of sweat glands

A
  1. apocrine sweat glands
  2. Eccrine sweat glands
184
Q

Other integumentary glands

A

Mammary glands
Ceruminous glands

185
Q

Nails

A

Protect tips of fingers and toes

186
Q

Functions of the skeletal system

A

1.support
2. Storage of minerals and lipids
3. blood cell production
4. Protection
5. Leverage

187
Q

How are bones classified?

A

Shape+ structure

188
Q

Structure of a long bone

A

Diaphysis(shaft)
Epiphysis (wide part at each end)
Metaphysis

189
Q

Diaphysis

A

1, wall of compact bone
2.central space called medullary cavity

190
Q

Epiphysis

A

Mostly spongy bone (trabecular bone)

191
Q

Characteristics of bone

A
  1. dense matrix
  2. Osteocytes
  3. Canaliculi
  4. Periosteum
192
Q

Osteocytes

A

Bone cells within lacunae organized around blood cells

193
Q

Canaliculi

A

Narrow passageways that allow for exchange of nutrients, wastes, and gases

194
Q

Periosteum

A

Covers outer surfaces of bones

195
Q

Bone matrix composition

A

2/3 calcium phosphate → forms crystals of hydroxyapatite
1/3 collagen fibers

196
Q

Four types of bone cells

A
  1. osteogenic cells
  2. osteoblasts
  3. osteocytes
  4. osteoclasts
197
Q

Osteogenic cells

A

Stem cells whose division produces osteoblasts
And assist in fracture repair

198
Q

Osteoblasts

A

• Produce new bone matrix during osteogenesis
• When osteoblasts are surrounded by bone matrix they become osteocytes
• Use calcium phosphate to constantly lay down new bone.

199
Q

Osteocytes

A

• Live in lacunae between layers of matrix
• Have cytoplasmic ext through canaliculi

200
Q

Functions of osteocytes

A

1.maintain protein and mineral content of matrix
2. Help repair damage bone

201
Q

Functions of osteoclasts

A
  1. Absorb and remove bone matrix
  2. Secrete acids and protein digesting enzymes
    a. Dissolve bone matrix and release stored minerals
    b. This osteolysis is important in homeostasis
202
Q

Osteon

A

Functional Unit of compact bone

203
Q

Central canal

A

Component of compact bone that contains blood vessels

204
Q

Perforating canal

A

Perpendicular to surface bone
Carry blood vessels into deep bone and marrow

205
Q

Types of lamellae

A

Concentric, interstitial, circumferential

206
Q

Concentric lamellae

A

Surround central canal

207
Q

Interstitial lamellae

A

Fills space between osteons

208
Q

Circumferential lamellae

A

Outer and inner bone surfaces

209
Q

Characteristics of spongy bone

A

Towards the center of the long bone

210
Q

Red bone marrow

A

Fills spaces between trabeculae

211
Q

Yellow bone marrow

A

Stores fat and regulates calcium levels

212
Q

Endosteum

A

Cellular layer that lines medullary cavity active during bone growth, repair, remodeling

213
Q

Bone development

A

Ossification and calcification

214
Q

Endochrondral ossification

A

How most bones form

215
Q

Intramembraneous ossification

A

Produces dermal bones such as mandible and clavicle

216
Q

Interstitial growth

A

Bone grows in length

217
Q

Appositional growth

A

Bone grows in width

218
Q

Parathyroid hormone and calcitonin

A

Affect storage, absorption, and excretion of calcium ions in the bones, digestive tract, and kidneys

219
Q

PTH

A

Stimulate osteoclast activity increase intestinal absorption, decrease calcium excretion by kidneys

220
Q
