Q

ectoderm is the precursor for which type of tissue

A

nervous tissue

24
Q

mesoderm is the precursor for which type of tissue

A

CT and muscle

25
endoderm is the precursor for which type of tissue
epithelial lining
26
which protein is present in gap junctions?
connexins
27
which proteins make up tight junctions
transmembrane proteins | prevents molecules from passing between cells
28
what are the components of adherens junctions
cadherins (glycoproteins) actin (microfilament) forms a plaque that resists separation of cells
29
what are the components of desmosomes
cadherins intermediate filaments (keratin) prevents cell separation under stress forces
30
what are the components of hemidesmosomes
``` integrins (transmembrane glycoproteins) laminin (in basement layer) intermediate filaments (keratin) ```
31
locations of tight junctions
BBB stomach lining urinary bladder
32
locations of adherens junctions
epithelial cells
33
locations of desmosomes
outer layer of epidermis | cardiac muscle cells
34
locations of hemidesmosomes
basement layer of epithelium
35
locations of gap junctions
nerve cells cardiac and smooth muscle embryonic cells lens and cornea of eye (avascular)
36
the basal surface of epithelial tissue contains which two layers
``` basil lamina (secreted by epithelial cells) reticular lamina (secreted by underlying CT) ```
37
what is microvascular disease?
``` in poorly controlled diabetes, the basement layer of blood vessels becomes thickened it causes -retinopathy -glomerular issues -neuropathy ```
38
What is a normal WBC?
5000-10000/uL
39
Neutrophils
most abundant WBC 60-79% of blood
40
Lymphocyte
20-25% of WB
41
Monocytes
3-8% of WB
42
Eosinophils
2-4% of WB
43
Basophils
.5-1% of WB
44
tonofilamen
precursor to the intermediate filament that transforms into keratin as epithelial cells move apical
45
keratohyalin
the protein that converts the tonofilaments into keratin in the stratum granulosum
46
epidermal growth factor
speeds up the process of cells becoming keratinized during wound healing
47
what kind of CT is in the papillary region between the epidermis and dermis?
areolar CT
48
what is carotene used for?
precursor of vitamin A, which is used to make visual pigment
49
what does thick skin lack?
hair follicles sebaceous glands arrector pili muscle
50
what does thick skin have more of?
sensory nerve endings and sweat glands
51
What are the layers of the hair?
1. matrix 2. medulla 3. cortex 4. cuticle 5. internal/external sheath (epithelial) 6. dermal root sheath
52
lamellar granules
lipid bodies located in the stratum granulosum that give it its waterproofing ability
53
fibrosis
process of forming scar tissue | -have more collagen and less blood vessels
54
hypertrophic scar
stays w/in margins of the wound, but is elevated above the wound
