Lab Practical 3 - axial and other stuff Flashcards
What is the difference between thick and thin skin?
Thick skin contains Stratum Lucidum. Also, there are no sebaceous glands in thick skin.
function & location: cutaneous membrane
keratinizing epithelium
- protection from mechanical, chemical, thermal and bacterial damage.
- prevents water loss
- insulation
- cushion
-skin
function & location: mucous membrane
loose connective tissue: lamina propria
line body cavities (hollow organs) that open to the exterior
nasal cavity, mouth, esophagus, lung
function & location: serous membrane
squamous epithelium on areolar connective tissue
line closed ventral cavity, reduce friction as organs slide across one another and against body cavity walls
peritonium, pleura, pericardium
Location & Secretion of eccrine glands
Location: palms, soles, forehead
Secretion: sweat (water, salt, vitamin C, antibodies, dermcidin, metabolic wastes
Location & Secretion of apocrine glands
Location: axillary, anogenital
Secretion: sweat, fatty substances, proteins
Location & Secretion of sebaceous glands
Location: Everywhere except palms and soles
Secretion: sebum (oil, bactericidal, softens hair & skin)
Visceral vs parietal
Visceral is inside, covers organs. Parietal covers the wall.
Hyaline cartilage location
- costal - connects ribs to sternum
- articular - covers bone ends at moveable joints
- laryngeal - constructs larynx
- tracheal & bronchial - reinforce passageways of respiratory system
- nasal - supports external nose
Fibrocartilage location
intervertebral discs - cushion bones of spine
pubic symphosis
knee joints
Elastic Cartilage
external ear
epiglottis
Long bone
- bones that are longer than they are wide, consisting of a shaft with heads at either end.
- composed mostly of compact bone.
- example: femur, phalanges, ulna, radial
Short bones
- cube shaped
- contains more spongy bone than compact bone.
- example: tarsal, carpal
Flat bone
- generally thin, two waferlike layers of compact bone sandwiching a layer of spongy bone
- curved generally
- example: skull, sternum
Irregular bones
all other bones.
example: vertebrae
Sesamoid bones
special type of short bones formed in tendons.
example: patella.
Bone marking function
bulges, depressions and holes which serve as sites of attachment for muscles, ligaments, and tendons; joint surfaces; conduits for blood vessels and nerves
Bone marking categories
- projections or processes that grow out from the bone and serve as sites of muscle attachment or help form joints;
- depressions (or cavities) which are indentations or openings in bone that serve as conduits for nerves and blood vessels.
axial skeleton
skull, thoracic cage, vertebral column, sacrum, coccyx
appendicular
clavicle, scapula, upper (humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, phalanges, metacarpals) and lower limb bones (femur, patella, tibia, fibula, tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges, talus), pelvic girdle
