Q

bones; provides rigidity with some flexibility in the trachea, bronchi, ribs, and nose; forms strong, smooth, yet somewhat flexible articulating surfaces; forms the embryonic skeleton

A

capable of withstanding considerable pressure; connects structure subjected to great pressure

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

42
Q

solid matrix

43
Q

Provides great strength and support
and protects internal organs, such as brain; bones also provides attachment sites for muscles and ligaments; the joints of bones allow movements

44
Q

FLUID CONNECTIVE TISSUE

45
Q

Transports oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, nutrients, waste products, and other substances; protects the body from infection and is involved in temperature regulation

46
Q

Hemopoietic Tissue

A

o Red marrow

o Yellow marrow

47
Q

composed of elongated muscle cells called muscle fibers.

A

Muscular tissue

48
Q

There are three types of muscular tissue

A

Skeletal Muscles, Cardiac Muscles and Smooth muscles.

49
Q

Movement of the body; under voluntary control

A

SKELETAL TISSUE

50
Q

Pumps the blood; under involuntary

(unconscious) control

A

CARDIAC MUSCLE

51
Q

Regulates the size of organs. forces fluid through tubes, controls the amount of light entering the eye, and produces “goose bumps” in the skin; under involuntary (unconscious) control

A

SMOOTH MUSCLE

52
Q

transmits impulses to coordinate activities including involuntary controls because these specialized cells makes up the brain, spinal cord and nerves.

A

NERVOUS TISSUE

53
Q

transmit information in the form of action potentials, store information, and integrate and evaluate data; neuroglia support, protect, and form specialized sheaths around axons

A

NERVOUS TISSUE

54
Q

The skin is a multilayered organ that consists of two main parts:

A

Epidermis and Dermis

55
Q

made from keratinized stratified squamous epithelium, is the superficial, thinner portion of the skin that prevents water loss and resists abrasion.

56
Q

is the deeper, thicker and dense connective tissue portion.

57
Q

FIVE LAYERS

A 
STRATUM BASALE
STRATUM SPINOSUM
STRATUM GRANULOSUM
STRATUM LUCIDUM
STRATUM CORNEUM
58
Q

is the deepest layer that consists of either columnar or cuboidal cells aligned in single row.

A

STRATUM BASALE

59
Q

This layer provides strength and flexibility to the skin. Cells in the more superficial portions of this layer are beginning to flatten.

A

STRATUM SPINOSUM

60
Q

this layer is the presence of the protein keratin and membrane- enclosed lamellar granules.

A

STRATUM GRANULOSUM

61
Q

This layer is found only in the areas of the body (thick skin) where exposure to friction is greatest (for example, fingertips, palms, soles).

A

STRATUM LUCIDUM

62
Q

The interior of the cells contains mostly keratin that aids in its natural strength. Its multiple layers of dead squamous cells filled with keratin help to protect deeper layers from injury and microbial invasion.

A

STRATUM CORNEUM

63
Q

also called as the stratum germinatum

A

STRATUM BASALE

64
Q

8 to 10 layers of many-sided

keratinocytes that t closely together.

A

STRATUM SPINOSUM

65
Q

3 to 5 layers of flattened

keratinocytes that are undergoing apoptosis.

A

STRATUM GRANULOSUM

66
Q

4–6 layers of flattened clear, dead

keratinocytes that contain large amounts of keratin.

A

STRATUM LUCIDUM

67
Q

25 to 30 layers of flattened dead cells

from the deeper strata.

A

STRATUM CORNEUM

68
Q

composed of dense collagenous

connective tissue containing fibroblasts, adipocytes, and macrophages.

69
Q

is caused by pigments such as melanin, hemoglobin and carotene.

A

Skin color

70
Q

plays responsible for its pale yellow to reddish brown to black shade.

71
Q

A deficiency of oxygen in circulating

blood

72
Q

Impaired liver function (such as from hepatitis or liver disease) that allows bile to accumulate, which stains the skin

73
Q

A deficiency of hormones from the adrenal gland, such as occurs with Addison disease

74
Q

A genetic lack of melanin

75
Q

Increased blood flow in dilated blood vessels close to the skin’s surface; may result from heat, exercise, sunburn, or emotions such as embarrassment or anger

76
Q

Blue tint

77
Q

Yellow discoloration of skin and the whites of the eyes

78
Q

A golden brown skin color

79
Q

Extremely pale skin, white hair, and pink eyes

80
Q

Abnormal redness

81
Q

Decreased blood flow, such as occurs from c temperatures, fear or emotional stress, low blood pressure, or blood loss

82
Q

The breakdown of clotted blood under the skin

A

Bruise (hematoma)

83
Q

Pale Skin

84
Q

Bluish, black or yellowish mark on the skin

85
Q

protects the skin and other structures of the body.

86
Q

plates of tightly packed, hard, dead, keratinized cells of the epidermis.

87
Q

s stratum corneum that extends onto the nail body.

A

The cuticle, or eponychium

88
Q

The average growth of fingernails

A

1 mm (0.04 inch) per week.

89
Q

produce secretions that perform a variety of functions.

90
Q

two major glands located in the skin

A

sebaceous and sweat glands

91
Q

TWO MAJOR PARTS OF GLANDS

A

SWEAT GLANDS

SEBACEOUS GLANDS

92
Q

TWO TYPES OF SWEAT GLANDS

A

Eccrine Glands

Apocrine Glands

93
Q

produces a transparent, watery fluid called sweat that contains small amount of potassium, ammonia, lactic acid, uric acid and other wastes.

A

Eccrine Glands

94
Q

is limited to the axillary and pubic regions and produces a thicker sweat often released during emotional stress.

A

Apocrine Glands

95
Q

lies in the dermis and open
into hair follicles or directly onto the skin. It secretes sebum as an oily substance that contains lipids and cellular debris.

A

SEBACEOUS GLANDS

96
Q

plays an important role in the protection of the ear canal against physical damage and microbial invasion.

97
Q

the skin of the
human external auditory canal are modified apocrine glands, which, together with sebaceous glands, produce the cerumen, the ear wax.

A

ceruminous glands
