21
Q

• consist of hart keratinized epithelial cells
• melanocytes provide pigment for hair color
• hair grows in the matrix of the hair bulb kn stratum basale

22
Q

• Central medulla
• Cortex sorrounds medulla
• cuticle on outside of cortex

23
Q

• Heavily keratinized, scale-like modifications of the epidermis
• Stratum basale extends beneath the nail bed, which is responsible for growth
• Lack of pigment makes nails colorless

24
Q

• caused by fungal infection (Tinea pedis)
• Itchy, red peeling skin between the toes

A

• Athlete’s foot

25
• Caused by inflammation of hair follicles • carbuncles are clusters of boils caused by bacteria
• Boils (furuncles) and carbuncles
26
• Caused by human herpesvirus 1 • Blisters itch and sting
Cold sores (fever blisters)
27
• Caused by exposure to chemicals that provoke allergic responses • Itching, redness, and swelling of the skin
• Contact dermatitis
28
• caused by bacterial infection • link, fluid raised lesions around mouth/nose
Impetigo
29
Triggered by trauma, infection, hormonal changes, or stress • red, epiderma lesions covered with dry, silvery scales that itch, burn, crack, or sometimes bleed
Psoriasis
30
• Tusse damage and cell death caused by heart •< Results in loss of body fluids and infection from the invasion of bacteria
Burns
31
Body is divided into _____ areas for quick estimation
11
32
• Body is divided into 11 areas for quick estimation •< each area represent s about 8 percent of total body surface area • The area sorrounding the genitals (the perineum represent 1 percent of body surface area
Homeostatic imbalance of skin
33
• only epidermis is damaged • skin is red and swollen
First- degree burn +superficial burn)
34
• epidermis and the superficial part of dermis are damaged • skin is red, painful, and blistered • regrowth of the epithelium can pccur
Second- degree burn (partial-thickness burn)
35
• destroys epidermis and dermis; the burned area is painless •requires skin grafts, as regeneration is possible • burned area is blanched (gray-white) or black
Third-degree burn (full thickness burn
36
• extends int deeper tissues (bone, muscle, tendons) • Appears dry and leathery • requires surgery and grafting •< may require amputation
Fourth- degree burn,(bone,muscle, tendons)
37
Over _____ percent of body has second-degree burns
30
38
Over _____ percent of the body has third or fourth-degree burns
10
39
Thirds pr fourth-degree burns of the:
Face, hands, or feet, genitals
40
• most common form of cancer in humans • most important risk factor is overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation in sunlight and tanning beds
Skin cancer
41
Cancer can be classified two ways:
Benign and malignant
42
Means the neoplasm (tumor) had not spread
Benign
43
Means the neoplasm has invaded other body areas
Malignant
44
Most common types of skin cancer:
• basal cell carcinoma • squamous cell carcinoma • malignant melanoma
45
•Least malignant and most common type of skin cancer • Arises from cells in stratum basale that are altered so that they can no longer make keratin • lesions appear as shiny, dome-shaped nodules that develop a central ulcer
Basal cell carcinoma
46
• Believed to be induced by UV.exposure • Arises from cells of stratum spinosum • Lesions appear as scaly, reddened papules that gradually dorm shallow ulcers • early removal allows a good chance of cure • mestasizes to limph nodes if not removed
Squamous cell carcinoma
47
• most deadly of skin cancers, but accounts for only 5 percent of skin cancers • arises from melanocytes • mestasizes rapidly to lymp and blood vessels • detection uses ABCDE rule for recognizing melanoma
Malignant melanoma
48
Two sides of pigmented mole do not match
Assymetry
49
A downy hair, covers the boat by the fifth or sixth month of detail development but disappears by birth.
Lanugo
50
An oily covering, is apparent at birth
Vernix caseosa
51
Small white spots, ate common at birth and disappear by the third week
