Skin, Muscle, Bones Flashcards
(44 cards)
Dense connective tissue containing many blood vessels and nerves
Dermis
Superficial fascia is otherwise known as
Subcutaneous tissue
Appendages of the skin
Nails
Hair follicles
Sebaceous glands
Sweat glands
Invaginations of the epidermis into the dermis
Follicles
Band of smooth muscle that connects the undersurface of the follicle to the superficial part of the dermis
Arrector pili - innervated by sympathetic nervous system
Hairs distributed in the body EXCEPT
Lips Palms Soles of feet Side of finger and toes Glans penis Clitoris Labia minors Internal surface of labia majora
Helps preserve the flexibility of the emerging hair
Sebum (from sebaceous glands)
Sweat glands distributed all over the body except
Red margins of the lips
Nail beds
Glans penis/ Clitoris
Most deeply penetrating structures of all the epidermal appendages
SWEAT GLANDS
Mixture of loose areolar and adipose tissue that unites the dermis of the skin to the underlying deep fascia
Superficial fascia/ Subcutaneous tissue
Has subcutaneous tissue
Scalp, back of the neck, palms of the hands and soles of the feet
Devoid of adipose tissue
Eyelids, auricle of the ear, penis, scrotum, clitoris
Membranous layer of connective tissue that invests the muscles and other deep structures
Deep fascia
Neck - imp role in determining path. org during spread of infection
In region of joints, deep fascia may be thickened to form restraining bands called
RETINACULA
Extend from deep surface of the membrane, divide the interior of the limbs into compartments
Fibrous septa
Voluntary, striated muscle, multinucleated
Skeletal muscle
Uni/Bi-nucleated striations, striated, walls of heart
Cardiac muscle
Single. Fusiform. No striations
Smooth muscle
Fibrous tissue that attaches muscles to bones
Tendons
Tendon lies along one side of the muscle and the muscles pass obliquely to it. Give example.
Unipennate muscles Ex. EXTENSOR DIGITORUM
Bipennate muscles
Rectus femoris
Description: tendon lies in the center of the muscle and the muscle fiber pass to it from two sides
Multipennate muscles
Acromial fibers of the deltoid, tibialis anterior
Des: series of bipennate muscles lying alongside one another or tendon lying on the center …
Undesired actions at the proximal joints are prevented by these muscles
Synergists
Stabilize the proximal joints of a limb, desired movement may occur at a fixed base
Fixator
