Test 2 Flashcards
supinator
Types of exocrine glands
Serous- viscous solution
Mucous- mucous solution
Mixed- both viscous and mucous
Transverse tubules
T-tubules
stratified squamous non-keratinized
Terminal cisternae
Widened ends of sarcoplasmic reticulum
Sarcomere
Functional unit of skeletal muscle, sarcomeres are connected in series to make myofibrils. About 10,000 sarcomeres make myofibrils, each sarcomeres contracts shortening length of myofibril.
neuromuscular junction
Describe the structure of dermis
• Composed of connective tissue
• Highly vascular
• Contain nerves and sensory receptors
• Located deep to the epidermis
• Has two layers:
– Papillary layer provides nutrients, O2 etc to the epidermis
– Reticular layer-interwoven network of collagen fibers
surrounding dermal organs
soleus
accessory structures
• Hair, nails, & glands in the skin (dermis)
• Hair grows everywhere except areas with thick skin and portions of
the external genitalia
• Hair is formed in organs called follicles
• Hair give added sensory info and protects orifices of the body
(nostrils, ears)
sternocleidomastoid
zygomaticus major
quadratus lumborum
subscapularis
tendinous inscriptions
simple columnar
coracobrachialis
cross sec. muscle
palmar carpal ligament
simple squamous
iliacus
connective tissue
• Epimysium-surrounds the entire muscle
• Perimysium-surrounds fascicles
• Fasicle-a bundle of muscle cells
•Endomysium-surrounds individual muscle cells
• Epimmysium & perimysium are attachment sites for nerves & blood
vessels
gracilis
hair
- Types of hairs on the body:
- Vellus hairs-“peach fuzz” over most of the body
- Intermediate hairs-hairs growth stimulated by hormones
- Terminal hairs-hairs on head, eyebrows, eyelashes
- Hair is dead keratinized epithelial cells
pectoralis major
What are the three factors that determine skin color?
thickness
melenocyte activity
blood supply
superior extensor retinaculum
Papillary layer
Consists of areolar CT
provides nutrients, O2 etc to the epidermis
dermis hypodermis
nervous tissue
sartorius
thick skin vs. thin skin
• Thick skin has 5 layers in the epidermis-includes the
stratum lucidum, plantar/palmar
• Thick skin has a thicker stratum corneum
functions of integument
• Protection from the environment-the skin is the superficial surface
of the body
• Thermoregulation-secretions from sweat glands in the skin cool the
body down
• Storage of lipids-adipose tissue (fat)
• Vitamin D synthesis-stimulates bone growth
• Provides sensory info-sensory receptors located in the skin
hypodermis
- Loose CT, adipose cells
- Different regional distributions of adipose in males and females
- Stabilizes position of organs
- Maintain temperature
- Energy reserve
- Cushion
gluteus maximus
dorsal carpal ligament
extensor hallucis longus
layers of epidermis
Stratum basale (germinativum)-attached to basement membrane, contains stem cells & melanocytes
Stratum spinosum-, stem cells develop into keratinocytes,
melanocytes
Stratum granulosum-keratinization begins, adding membrane
proteins, cells thin, organelles die
Stratum lucidum-only in thick skin (palmar & plantar regions),
very thin cells
Stratum corneum-at surface of skin
Layers of dead interlocking keratinocytes
Contains large amount of keratin
Makes a dry water resistant layer
pronator teres
adductor longus
trapezius
transitional epithelium
pseudostratified ciliated columnar
sweat glands
• Apocrine-in the axillary, areolae & inguen regions
• Secretes into hair
• Merocrine (AKA eccrine)– Secrete onto skin
– Smaller and more superficial than apocrine glands
• Mammary glands-modified apocrine glands that release breast milk
• Cerumious glands-modified apocrine glands that release cerumen
(ear wax)
adductor magnus
extensor retinaculum
flexor retinaculum
quadriceps tendon/ patellar ligament
dermis
– Papillary layer- areolar CT
• Pacinian corpuscle-sensory receptors for soft touch
– Reticular layer- dense irregular CT
• Sebaceous glands- oily secretions
• Eccrine sweat glands-watery secretions
• Apocrine sweat glands- smelly secretions
flexor carpi ulnaris
rhomboid muscle group
thoracolumbar fascia
extenstor carpi raidalis
longus-proximal, medial
brevis-distal, lateral
