Dense regular (connective)

Answer 8

(Same direction collagen fibers)
Located ligaments/tendons
Resists pulling forces in joints

Question 9

Dense irregular (connective)

Answer 9

(Collagen fibers different directions)
Located dermis of skin
Resists pulling force in skin

Hyaline cartilage

Answer 10

Located in trachea
Supports and reinforces airway, cushioning properties
(Consists chondrocyte and lacuna)

Simple squamous (epithelial)

Answer 11

Diffusion occurs (between o2 and co2) 
Located in air sacs

Question 12

Ground substance

Answer 12

Space where nutrients and dissolved substance diffuse between blood cap and connective tissue

Question 13

Fibers (3)

Answer 13

Collagen, elastic and reticular

Question 14

Collagen fiber

Answer 14

Strongest. Protein collagen. White fibers. In tendons and ligaments.

Question 15

Elastic fibers

Answer 15

Stretch and recoil. Elastin protein. Yellow fibers. Around dermis, lungs and blood vessels

Question 16

Reticular fiber

Answer 16

Inelastic. Collagen protein reticulin. Provides support and internal framework of glands. Lines capillaries.

Question 17

Fiberblast cell

Answer 17

Forms collagenous and elastic fibers

Question 18

Mast cell

Answer 18

Contains/release histamine (inflammation) and heparin (anticlot)

Question 19

Chondrocyte

Answer 19

Cells located in cartilage. Maintains cartilage matrix and reduces friction in bones.

Question 20

Lacuna

Answer 20

Small space containing a chondrocyte or osteocyte

Question 21

Integumentary

Answer 21

Protects body. Maintains body temp. Excrete materials. Carry out metabolic reactions. Sense stimuli. Holds blood volume.

Question 22

Epidermis

Answer 22

Stratified squamous tissue. A vascular ( no blood supply)

Question 23

Keratinocytes (epidermis cell)

Answer 23

Most abundant cell. Produce keratin. Protects skin and produces antibodies

Question 24

Melanocytes (epidermis cell)

Answer 24

Produce melanin (dark pigment). Protects keratinocytes from uv rays that may cause cancer.

Question 25

Langerhans (epidermis cell) (intraepidermal macrophages)

Answer 25

Antigen. Helps immune cells recognize an invading microb and destroy it

Question 26

Merkel (epidermis cell) (tactile epithelial)

Answer 26

Sensory receptor. Detects touch sensation

Question 27

Stratum basele (epidermis layer)

Answer 27

Deepest layer. Constantly produces keratinocytes.

Question 28

Stratum spinosum (epidermis layer)

Answer 28

Provides strength and flexibility to skin

Question 29

Stratum grandulosum (epidermis layer)

Answer 29

Middle layer. Losing blood/o2 supply. Death of keratinocytes occur.

Question 30

Stratum lucidum (epidermis layer)

Answer 30

Thick skin (hairless). Dead keratinocytes that contain keratin.

Question 31

Stratum corneum (epidermis layer)

Answer 31

Keratinocytes shed daily

Question 32

Dermis

Answer 32

Dense irregular tissue. Contains collagen/elastic fibers , blood vessels and nerves

Question 33

Papillary layer (dermis layer)

Answer 33

Closest to epithelium tissue. Makes finger prints. Dermal papillae that has blood vessels and nerve endings that initiates signals of sensation

Question 34

Dermal papillae

Answer 34

Upper layer of dermis that connects to epidermis to provide blood flow

Question 35

Reticular layer (dermis layer)

Answer 35

Collagen fibers for strength and resiliency to skin. Protects from scraps and jabs. Fiber that bind water to keep skin hydrated. Elastic fibers so skin can stretch.

Question 36

Hypodermis

Answer 36

Adipose/ areolar tissue. Stores fat, shock absorber and insulates. Anchors skin to deep muscle

Question 37

Sebaceous gland

Answer 37

Oil gland. Lubricates hair and skin. Secretes sebum. Inhibits water loss and bacteria growth

Question 38

Sudoriferous gland

Answer 38

Sweat glands.

Question 39

Eccrine sweat gland

Answer 39

Most common. Regulate body temp. Forehead/hands

Question 40

Apocrine sweat gland

Answer 40

Armpit/groin. Milky/yellowish. Emotional/sexual sweat. Odorless but when interacts with bacteria turns into bo

Question 41

Hair follicle

Answer 41

Surrounds hair root formed from epidermal layers and projects into dermis

Question 42

Arrector pilli

Answer 42

Goosebumps. Smooth muscle contracts hair follicle to upright position. (Autonomic nerve endings stimulates contraction of smooth muscle)
