Exam 2 Flashcards
(45 cards)
Melanocytes
Tyrosine produces it
Melanosome>pigment>basal lamina
Tonofilaments
Precursors to keratin
Stratum spinosum
Attached by desmosomes
Langerhans cells are here
Synthesize tonofilaments
Stratum granulosum
Cell death begins Flattened due to dehydration Plasma membranes thicken Contain keratohyaline granules Lamellar granules accumulate
Lamellar granules
Contain glycolipids for waterproof
Contents are excreted by exocytosis
Stratum lucidum
Only thick skin
Lacks organelles
Cells are dead
Papillary layer contains
Capillary loops
meisseners corpuscles
And free nerve endings
Reticular layer
Dense irregular CT
Collagen strengthens
Elastic helps recoil
Sebaceous glands
Holocrine
Sebum
Stimulate sex hormones
Merocrine or eccrine
Deep in reticular layer
Visible sweat
Apocrine gland
Sexual scents
In hypodermis
Produces fatty substances
Thin skin
Everywhere except thick skin
Thin spinosum and corneum
Hair follicles
Sebaceous glands
Thick skin
Palms, soles, digits Thick lucidium and corneum Epidermal ridges Sudoriferous glands Sensory receptors
Epidermal healing
Basal cells migrate to make membrane
Cells divide to fill wound
Deep wound healing
1 bleeding and inflammatory response
2 scab forms and phagocytes cells are removing debris
3 scab has been undermined and fibroblasts are repairing tissue
4 scar tissue is formed
Functions of bones
Support Protection Movement Blood cell production Mineral storage Triglyceride storage
Calcium is needed for
Nerve impulses Muscle contraction Blood clotting Gland secretions Cell division
Periosteum
Outter membrane
Made of osteoblasts/clasts
Highly vascular
Endosteum
Covers trabeculae
Contains osteoblasts/clasts
Osteoid
Unmineralized bone materix
Makes up 1/3 of bone matrix
Proteglycans glycoproteins collagen
Mineral salts
Mainly hydroxyapatite crystals
Formed with calcification
Intramembranous ossification
1 development of ossification center
2 calcification
3 formation of trabeculae
4 development of periosteum
Endochondral ossification
1 development of cartilage model
2 growth of cartilage model (collar)
3 development of primary ossification center
4 development of medullary cavity
Functional zones in bone growth
Quiescence Proliferation Hypertrophy Calcification Ossification
