Lab 2 and Lab 3 Bio 231 Flashcards
physiological part of integumentary system is mechanical and keeps things outside t/f
False; deals with immunity
Removal of nitrogenous waste is through the _____glands
sweat
Is vit. D a hormone on the skin? used for _________development. Comes from _________
yes; bone; UV light
largest organ of integument
skin
is the hypodermis a true layer t/f?
false; but it contributes to the fat stores
synthesize protein that adds strength and waterproofing of cells most abundant
keratinocytes
produces melanin; restricted to basal layer
melanocytes
Langerhan’s cells(dendritic cells or modified wbc’s) are_________cells of skin
immune;
attached to sensory neuron/sensory perception cells
Merkel’s cells
controls color of skin
melanocytes
merkel cell +sensory neuron=
merkel’s disk
Dermal papillae form the _________________
fingerprints
inner layer of the dermis comprised of dense irregular connective tissue; netlike appearnace
reticular layer
collagen fibers, connective tissue, elastic fibers, nipple like extension are controlled by this layer
papillary
Deepest layer. Made of living cuboidal cells. Find melanocytes,
Merckel’s disks and keratinocytes in this layer
stratum basale
Larger layer. Cells in this layer are alive until they get near
the next level. Have a spiny or prickly appearance.
stratum spinosum
below dermis; adipose tissue (subcutaneous injections given here)
hypodermis
red, swollen pain sunburn
first degree burn
partial thickness burn; red/swollen; extremely painful blisters
second degree burns
full thickness burn; burns dermis/epidermis; not painful; numbing; nerve ending damaged
third degree burn
blisters can be associated with toxins, chemicals, radiation. t/f
True
Transition zone for skin cells. Has 3-5 layers. Appears
granular or darker in color. It looks grainy. In this area the keratinocytes begin
to die and start to fill with keratin.
stratum granulosum
This is NOT found in all skin. ONLY thick skin (such as the
soles of the feet). Has 2-4 layers of dead cells filled with keratin.
stratum lucidum
Made of 20-30 sublayers of dead, keratinocytes filled with
keratin. These look like “shingles” on a house. This is the most superficial layer.
stratum corneum
large blister
bullae
true glands are _________in nature. they are compact and close together.
epithelial
can a single cell be a gland
yes
produces mucus in simple columnar
epithelium: Easy to see!
goblet cell
exocrene and endrocrine is second way to classify glands t/f
True
Duct/removal of secretion=endocrine t/f
False; exocrine
relies on bloodstream to carry secretions
endocrine
cell contributes whole top; vesicles go into the surface.
apocrine
Third way to classify glands is merocrine, apocrine, and holocrine t/f
true
