Venous Thrombosis
52
Symptoms of burn
``` ➢Tissue damage (deeper tissue) ➢Edema (swelling) ➢Shock ➢Microbial Infection =Inflammation ```
53
Why does microbial infection occur in burn skin?

What are the effects of aging on the integumentary system?
=skin more easily damaged because epidermis thins and amount of collagen decreases =skin infections more like =wrinkling occurs due to decrease in elastic fibers =skin becomes drier =decrease in blood supply causes poor ability to regulate body temperature =functioning melanocytes decrease or increase; age spots =sunlight ages skin more rapidly
79
What is the best time to go under the sun?
6AM TO 9 AM
80
what time does the highest radiation from the sun occurs?
10 AM ONWARDS
81
is the primary organ of the integumentary system and is the largest organ of the body.
Skin
82
is the basal (base) layer of the epidermis. It is the layer that’s closest to the blood supply lying underneath the epidermis. This layer is one of the most important layers of our skin since it contains the only cells of the epidermis that can divide via the process of mitosis, which means that skin cells germinate here,
stratum basale also called the stratum germinativum
83
the most numerous cells of the epidermis called
Keratinocytes
84
Keratinocytes produce the essential protein of the epidermis. This protein is called _____
Keratin
85
makes our skin tough and provides us with much-needed protection from microorganisms, physical harm, and chemical irritation.
keratin
86
A layer so-called because its cells are spiny-shaped. is partly responsible for the skin’s strength and flexibility.
Stratum Spinosum
87
This layer gets its name from the fact that the cells located here contain many granules. The keratinocytes produce a lot of keratin in this layer—they become filled with keratin(keratinization)
Stratum Granulosum
88
is a layer that derives its name from the lucid (clear/transparent) appearance it gives off under a microscope. This layer is only easily found in certain hairless parts of our body, namely the palms of our hands and the soles of our feet: meaning, the places where our skin is usually the thickest.
stratum lucidum
89
(the horny layer filled with cornified cells). This the only layer of skin we see with our eyes.
stratum corneum
90
. The keratinocytes in the stratum corneum are called
corneocytes.
91
are all exocrine glands that release their secretions to the skin surface via ducts
Cutaneous Glands
92
a small gland in the skin which secretes a lubricating oily matter (sebum) into the hair follicles to lubricate the skin and hair.
Sebaceous Gland
93
are small tubular structures of the skin that produce sweat.
sweat glands
94
sweat gland is also known as
sudoriferous glands
95
is a recessive genetic trait that causes a deficiency or an absence of melanin. Albinos have fair skin, white hair, and unpigmented irises in the eyes.
ALBINISM
96
are lines develop when a person increases in size quite rapidly.
