81
Q

is the primary organ of the integumentary system and is the largest organ of the body.

A

Skin

82
Q

is the basal (base) layer of the epidermis. It is the layer that’s closest to the blood supply lying underneath the epidermis. This layer is one of the most important layers of our skin since it contains the only cells of the epidermis that can divide via the process of mitosis, which means that skin cells germinate here,

A

stratum basale also called the stratum germinativum

83
Q

the most numerous cells of the epidermis called

A

Keratinocytes

84
Q

Keratinocytes produce the essential protein of the epidermis. This protein is called _____

A

Keratin

85
Q

makes our skin tough and provides us with much-needed protection from microorganisms, physical harm, and chemical irritation.

A

keratin

86
Q

A layer so-called because its cells are spiny-shaped. is partly responsible for the skin’s strength and flexibility.

A

Stratum Spinosum

87
Q

This layer gets its name from the fact that the cells located here contain many granules. The keratinocytes produce a lot of keratin in this layer—they become filled with keratin(keratinization)

A

Stratum Granulosum

88
Q

is a layer that derives its name from the lucid (clear/transparent) appearance it gives off under a microscope. This layer is only easily found in certain hairless parts of our body, namely the palms of our hands and the soles of our feet: meaning, the places where our skin is usually the thickest.

A

stratum lucidum

89
Q

(the horny layer filled with cornified cells). This the only layer of skin we see with our eyes.

A

stratum corneum

90
Q

. The keratinocytes in the stratum corneum are called

A

corneocytes.

91
Q

are all exocrine glands that release their secretions to the skin surface via ducts

A

Cutaneous Glands

92
Q

a small gland in the skin which secretes a lubricating oily matter (sebum) into the hair follicles to lubricate the skin and hair.

A

Sebaceous Gland

93
Q

are small tubular structures of the skin that produce sweat.

A

sweat glands

94
Q

sweat gland is also known as

A

sudoriferous glands

95
Q

is a recessive genetic trait that causes a deficiency or an absence of melanin. Albinos have fair skin, white hair, and unpigmented irises in the eyes.

A

ALBINISM

96
Q

are lines develop when a person increases in size quite rapidly.

A

Stretch marks -
