25
A yellowish pigment found in epidermalb cells and fatty parts of the dermis which is abundant in the skin of Asians and is together with melanin for the account of yellowish tan color
Carotene
26
It is not a pigment but it is the oxygen binding pigment found in RBC which is an oxygenated blood flowing through the dermis which gives the skin its pinkish tones
Hemoglobin
27
In the forehead and face acquired from continual contraction of facial muscles such as for smiling or squinting in bright light or against the wind
Furrow
28
Lines of tension in the skin produced by the orientation of collagen and elastic fibers in non-random pattern of arrangement
Langer lines
29
Deeper and thicker than the dermis which is a strong and stretchy envelope that helps to hold the body together
Dermis
30
It contains numerous collagenous elastic and reticular fibers that gives support to the skin and is highly vascular and glandular that contains many nerve endings and hair follicles
Dermis
31
The layers of the dermis
Papillary layer Reticular layer
32
In contact with the epidermis which contains capillary loops which furnish nutrients to the epidermis
Papillary layer
33
The projections are cold dermal papillae
Papillary layer
34
Touch receptors under the papillary layer
Meissner's Corpuscles
35
Deepest skin layer contains blood vessels sweat and oil glands and deep pressure receptors
Reticular layer
36
Many phagocytes are found here that engulf bacteria and have managed to get through the epidermis
Reticular layer
37
These are all endocrine glands including sebaceous glands and sweat glands
Cutaneous glands
38
Found all over the skin except on palms and soles Ducks usually empty into a hair follicle and experiences secretion called sebum
Sebaceous glands
39
Active secretion regulated by sex hormones
Sebaceous glands
40
Sweat glands is also called us
Sudoriferous glands
41
Widely distributed in the skin numerous in palms soul auxiliary and pubic regions which secretion evaporates and cools the body
Sweat glands
42
Two types of sweat glands
Merocrine and apocrine
43
It is a sweat gland that is more numerous and found all over the body especially in forehead back palms and soles it's secretion reaches skin surface by via adopt that opens directly on surface of skin through sweat pores Secretion is mostly water with few salts
Merocrine sweat gland
44
Much larger localized gland found in auxiliary and pubic regions where they secrete into hair follicles not functional until puberty and secretion is thick and rich in organic substances which is other less when released but quickly broken down by bacteria into substances responsible for body odor
Apocrine sweat glands
45
Found within the breasts specialized through the referrals or sweat gland that secretes milk during lactation Under the stimulus of pituitary gland
Mammary gland
46
It is for protection an example given is sculpt here eyebrows are protection from the sunlight
Hair
47
Parts of the hair
Shaft Root Hair bulb matrix
48
The visible but then portion of hair projecting above surface of the skin
Shaft
49
It is a part of the hair that is enclosed in the follicle
Root
50
It is the growth zone of the hair which contains melanocytes that give color to the hair
Hair bulb matrix
51
3 layers of hair in cross-section
Medulla Cortex Cuticle
52
Converse cortex and forms toughen outer portion Thick median part of the hair Inner part of the hair
Cuticle Cortex Medulla
53
Three distinct kinds of hair in humans
Lanugo Angora Definitive
54
Find silky fetal hair that appears during the last trimester of development
Lanugo
55
Gross continuously in length as on scalp and on face of males
Angora
56
Gross to a certain length and then ceases to grow most dominant type of hair
Definitive
57
Found on the distal dorsum of each fingers and toes
Nails
58
Forms from a hardened transparent stratum corneum of epidermis
Nails
59
Part of the nails Visible attach portion Part of the nail covered by skin Where nail root and nail body are attached The distal exposed border attached to undersurface of hyponychium Beneath the free edge Covers the nail root frequently splits causing a hangnail
Nail Body Nail root Nail bed Free edge Hyponychium Eponychium
60
Proximal part of the nail bed where the growth of the area of nail
Nail matrix
61
Whitefish crescent shape area the proximal aspect of nail
Lunula
62
Nails are___and nearly___but they look pink because of the rich blood supply in the underlying dermis
Transparent Colorless
