Weeks 1 and 2 Flashcards
What are some characteristics of connective tissue
ground substance, elastic and cologne fibers, fibroblasts
What are the 6 kinds of CT
blood, adipose, tendon, ligaments, cartilage and bone
grey vs white matter
grey has the cell bodies, dendrites and glial cells whereas the white matter has the long tracks of axons (white because of the myelin)
what cells make myelin
Schwann cells
how many anterior and posterior spinal arteries
one anterior and two posterior
what kind of nerves supply the dura mater
sinuvertebral nerves
Menengies
The dura is the outer layer,
then the arachnoid
then the Pia
Between which two layers is the subarachnoid space
the arachnoid and the Pia
4 functions of neuroglia cells
to provide nutrients, protect, insulate and destroy pathogens
four glial cells in the CNS
oligodendrocytes, ependymal cells, astrocytes and microglia
functions of the skin
protection, temp control, sensation, excretion
what waterproofs the skin and where is it found
keratin and it is found in the epidermis
what gives skin its pigments, and where is it found
melanocytes and it is found in the basal layer of the epidermis
langerhorn cells
immune in epidermis
layers of the dermis
the superficial papillary layer has the areolar connective tissue, and the deep reticular has the dense connective tissue
where does the right lymphatic drain dump
the right upper extremity, the right side of the head and neck and right thorax (at the venous angle)
what constitutes the venous angle
the internal jugular and the subclavian meeting
where does the lymph from the rest of the body drain
the left venous angle
anterior root of spina nerves are what kind of messages
efferent (motor)
The posterior root has what kind of messages
afferent (has the ganglia)
where does the anterior rami proide
the body!
the posterior rami?
the deep back muscles, the synovial joints of the vertebral column and the overlying skin
what is the somatic nervous system
anything skeletal muscle (not viscera, smooth muscle or glands) VOLUNTARY
autonomic NS
involuntary
where are the pre synaptic/ganglionic located (of the ANS)
in the grey matter
where are the post synaptic/ganglionic loacated
in the ganglia, and on the effector organs
