Function of the jejunum
Absorb digested nutrients
Plicae circulares
Folds of the mucosa and submucosa
4 layers of the jejunum
Mucosa
Submucosa
Muscularis propria
Serosa
3 layers of the mucosa
Epithelium (has enterocytes, goblet cells, Paneth cells, and neuroendocrine cells) Lamina propria (CT, lymphocytes, capillaries, lymphatic channels) Muscularis mucosae
How many layers of muscle does the muscularis propria have?
2
Mesothelium
Simple squamous epithelium that lines the abdominal and thoracic organs
On the outsider of the serosa
Skin main functions
Barrier
Regulates body temperature (sweat, controls blood flow to the skin)
3 layers of the skin
Epidermis
Dermis
Hypodermis
Rete ridges
Protrusions of the epidermis into the dermis
Dermal papillae
Protrusions of the dermis into the epidermis
Adnexal structures (3)
Hair follicles
Eccrine sweat glands
Apocrine sweat glands
Protrude into the dermis and hypodermis
Hair follicles
Have sebaceous glands that secrete sebum
Also have smooth muscle bundles so hair can stand up
Eccrine sweat gland
Has secretory coli at its base and a duct that extends onto the surface of the skin
Apocrine sweat glands
Connect to a hair follicle
Located in the axillae, anogenital areas, mammary region, eyelid, and external ear canal
2 layers of the dermis
Papillary dermis (has dermal papillae, contains thin collagen fibers) Reticular dermis (contains thick collagen fibers)
