name layer below epithelium/basement membrane
|
basement membrane, superficial to desnse irregular connective tissue
|
|
basic energy reaction
|
fule + oxygen ---> ATP + corbon dioxide + water
|
|
Whta process is involved for stuff to get through to the epithelium?
|
diffusion
|
|
which embryonic germ layer gives rise to 4 primary tissue types
|
embryonic - includes endoderm, mesoderm & ectoderm
|
|
Papillary region of ?
|
top 1/5 = Papilllary
-the superfical portion = areolar connective tissue w/elastic fibers, contains: 1) dermal papillae that houses capillaries, 2) corpuslce of touch 3) free nerve endings |
|
Reticular region of ?
|
deepr portion (about 4/5) = Reticular
-= desne irregular connective tissues w/collagen bundles & some leastic fibvers; spaces in bewteen cotaint hari, nerves sebaceous glands, sudoriferous glands & fat cells |
|
Dermis cells
|
fibroblasts, macrophages & adipocytes
- blood vessels, nerves, glands & hair follicles are also embedded in dermal tissues |
|
what structures are found inthe dermal papillae & their specific functions?
|
1) dermal papillae that houses capillaries, 2) corpuslce of touch 3) free nerve endings
*dermal papillae grealy increase the surface area (small finger like projections), they indent the epidermis -in some you can find Meissner corpuslces (outouch), nerve endings taht are sensitive to touch, & free nerve endings |
|
Stratum Spinosum
|
= 8 ~ 10 rows of polysided
|
|
Stratum Basale
|
= deepest layer of epidermis
= 1 single row of cuboidal/columnar keratinocytes -***whegre stems cells undergo cell dvions to produce new keratonobyes,\-**8where melanocytes, Langehan clles 7 Merkel cesll associated with touch are sctattered among keratinoytes |

|
Stratum Granulosum
|
= 3 - 5 rows flattened keratonicytes, organells beginning to degenrate, cells contiantin keratohyalin, converts tonofiliametns into keratin, lamellar granules, release a lip-rich water-repellent secretion
|
|
Stratum Lucidum
|
*** - present only in : fingertip, palsm & soles
- = 3 to 5 rows of clear, flat dead keratonocytes w/large amts of keratin |
|
Stratum Corneium
|
= 25- 30 rows of dead flattened keratinocytes
- continuously shed & replaced by cells from deeper strata -betwen cells are lipds from lamellar granules that help make this layer an effective water-repellent barrier -thsi is also where callus are formed!(contian mostly keratin) |
|
what provides skin w/strenght, extensibility (stretchabiligy & elasticity)?
|
collagen _ elastic fibers in the reticular region
|
|
Langerhan cells
|
= immune
|
|
Merkell cell
|
sensory & tactile
|
|
6 functions of skin
|
1. regulates boyd temp
2. protects from extl environ 3. excretes & absobs 4. helps w/vit D synthesis 5. provides sensation 6. cutaneous sensation |
|
subcutanesou (subQ) layer aka
|
hyupodermis
= areolar & adipose -has fat & blood vessels -also has lamellated (Pacinian) corposuscles) that are senstiive to pressure (deep pressure!) |
|
What is epidermis made of? (1 million $ quesitons)
|
keratinized stratified squamous epithelium
|
|
what 4 cells does it contsist of ?
|
LM
|
