Test 1 (Final) Flashcards
This deck was created by combining two or more decks
Stratum basalt
Basal layer 5th layer One layer of rapidly dividing cells Has melanacytes Has merkel discs
Lamellar bodies
Produce lamellated granules
Which secrete the glycolipids
1st degree burn
Only on the epidermis
Red and painful
Heals in a week without scarring
Reticular layer
2nd layer of dermis
80% of the dermis
Dense irregular connective tissue with large bundles of collagen and elastin
Malignant melanoma
Least common
Arises from melanocytes
Develops as a large, flat, spreading sore, or a lump under the skin
Metastasis is common, usually fatal
Papillary layer
1st layer of dermis
Immediately below that stratum basale
Areolar connective tissue with collagen and elastin
Dermal papillae on palms form fingerprints
Merkel discs
Touch receptors
Squamous cell carcinoma
Cells in the stratum spinosum continue unregulated cell growth
Rarely the tumor migrates from the epidermis to the dermis and can metastasize
Integumentary system functions
Protection
Body temperature regulation
Sensation
The skin
Largest organ of the body
Composed of epidermis and dermis
Stratum corneum
Top layer of epidermis
Hard layer
20-30 layers of dead cells filled with keratin
Water proofing glycolipids
Dermis
Dense irregular connective tissue Has: Blood vessels Nerve endings Hair follicles Glands Smooth muscle
Stratum granulosum
Granular layer
3rd layer
3-5 layers of cells that are alive but dying
2nd degree burn
Epidermis and dermis are damaged Red and painful Edema (swelling) usually develops Blisters develop Heal in 1-2 weeks, scarring depends on extent of dermal damage
Sebaceous gland
Present everywhere except palms and soles
Secretes sebrum
Softens and lubricates hair and skin
Stratum spinosum
Spiny layer 4th layer 5-7 layers of living cells Has melanin granules Has langerhan's cells
Langerhan’s cells
Cells of the immune system that have migrated from the bone marrow
3rd degree burn
Epidermis and dermis are completely destroyed
Skin can only regenerate from the edges
Skin grafts are often necessary
Basal cell carcinoma
Least malignant
Most common
Begins in the stratum basale
Tissue destruction produces an ulcer
Surgical removal or radiation therapy
Meissner’s corpuscles
Touch receptor in dermis
Melanacyte
Produces melanin granules
Pacinian corpuscles
Pressure receptors in dermis
Stratum lucidum
Clear layer
2nd layer
2-3 layers of dead cells filled with keratin
Only found in hard skin (soles, palms)
Epidermis
Outermost
Stratified squamous epithelium
Most cells produce keratin
Thermoceptors
Temperature receptors in Deimos
Keratinacyte
Produce granules of keratohyaline
Which secrete keratin
Merocrine/eccrine
Sweat glands
Most common
Secretory portion is coiled deep in the dermis
Releasing duct extends to the surface of the epidermis
Secretes sweat made of H2O and salt
Nociceptors
Pain receptor in dermis
Protection
Chemical barrier
Physical barrier
Biological barrier
Anterior
In front of, toward the front
Ventral
Role of a Na+/K+ pump
Actively kick out the Na+ that has passively moved in
Actively pull in the K+ that has passively moved out
Maintains differential concentration gradients for Na+ and K+ that store energy through nerve and muscle cell function
Proteins
45-50%
Suspended within the membrane
Contraction is accomplished by the intersection of cellular contractile proteins called
Actin and myosin
Visceral plura
Covers the surface of the lungs
Involuntary
Unconsciously controlled
Carbohydrates
CHO+lipid= glycolipid CHO+protein= glycoprotein
Stratified tissue
Multiple layers of cells
Parasagittal
Unequal halves
Superficial
Toward the body’s surface
External
Basal surface
Opposite apical
In contact with the structure that the tissue is covering or lining
Associated with a basement membrane
Peripheral protein
Attached to either the inner or the outer surface of the membrane
Developmental anatomy
Study of structural changes that occur between conception and adulthood
Passive transport
Doesn’t require energy (ATP)
Movement of salutes down the concentration gradient
Deep
Away from the body’s surface
Internal
Serous membranes
Double membrane that; covers organs, lines cavity walls, produces lubricating fluids
Simple diffusion
Result of the constant random motion of all atoms and molecules in a solution
Rate of diffusion increases as temperature increases
Rate of diffusion decreases as molecule size increases
Parietal paracardium
Lines the paracardial cavity
