24
Q

Components of skin

Study These Flashcards
A
  1. Epidermis
  2. Dermis
  3. Subcutaneous layer
25
What is epidermis composed of?
1. Stratified squamous epithelial cells 2. Outer cells are non living and create waterproof covering 3. Inner layer is composed of living cells that produce new cells
26
What is the dermis composed of?
1. Connective tissue region composed of blood vessels, nerves, sense organs, oil and sweat glands, and hair
27
What is the subcutaneous layer composed of?
1. Loose connective tissue and adipose tissue | 2. Insulates and protects inner body parts
28
Dynamic equilibrium of body's internal enviroment
Homeostasis
29
Process of capillary exchange
1. Cells, tissue fluid and blood exchange nutrients and wastes 2. Occurs through thin walls of capillaries 3. Glucose and oxygen are supplied to cells 4. Carbon dioxide and other wastes are removed
30
What contribute to homeostasis?
Lungs, liver, and kidney
31
Alveoli are surrounded by ______
Capillaries
32
How do the lungs maintain homeostasis?
Gas exchange in lungs
33
Gas exchange occurs by diffusion of gases along a _______
Concentration gradient
34
What produces urea?
Liver
35
How does the liver maintain homeostasis?
Removes amino group from amino acids and converts it into urea nitrogenous end product
36
To regulate blood glucose level, after eating what happens?
- Blood glucose levels rise | - Pancreas secretes insulin to promote uptake of glucose from blood by liver and stores it as glycogen
37
To regulate blood glucose level, between meals what happens?
- Blood glucose levels drop | - Glucagon is released to promote breakdown of glycogen in liver and glucose is released to raise blood sugar level
38
How do kidneys maintain homeostasis?
Excrete nitrogenous wastes through urine formation | - regulates blood volume, blood pressure, and pH
39
Blood pressure causes small molecules to leave blood and become filtrate
Glomerular Filtration
40
Water and salt are passively reabsorbed
Reabsorption
41
Certain substances are actively secreted and hydrogen ions and ammonia
Tubular Secretion
42
Control of salt and water balance in the body
Osmoregulation
43
Four layers of the intestine
1. Mucosa 2. Submucosa 3. Muscularis 4. Serosa
44
When a heart chamber contracts
Systole
45
When a chamber relaxes
Diastole
