Epidermal Strata
layers of the epidermis in descending order are the stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale
Stratum Basale
Innermost basal layer of the epidermis. Contains epidermal Stem cells , melanocytes, Merkel cells
Keratinocytes
Most abundant layer of epithelial cells in the epidermis
Melanocytes
Cell that produces stores melanin
Tactile Cells
Stratum Spinosum
Also called the spiny layer is more superficial to the stratum basale. Made up of keratinocytes bound together by macula adherens Attached to tonofibrilsAnd of the cytoskeleton.
Stratum Granulosum
Layer of cells superficial to the stratum spinosum consists of Keratinocytes displaced from the stratum spinosum
Stratum Lucidum
Appears as the glassy layer and is only found in thick skin
Stratum Corneum
Consist of multiple layers of flattened dead interlocking keratinocytes
Anucleated Cells
Thick vs. Thin Skin
Most of the body is covered in thin skin which is represented by four layers with the stratum lucidum Being absent . Thick skin is found in the palm's of the hands or the soles of the feet And exhibits call five layers of Epidermis .
Skin Color
Is a function of three components dermal blood supply , Thickness of the stratum corneum , in varying quantities of carotine and melanin
Hemoglobin
In respect of skin color hemoglobin loses oxygen and changes caller to a much darker red tone. Skin can take on a bluish coloration called cyanosis.
Melanin
Helps prevent skin damage by absorbing ultraviolet radiation in sunlight .
Carotene

Special Markings
Striae = Stretch Marks
Lines of Cleavage
Tension lines in the skin that identify the predominant orientation of college and fiber bundles

Exocrine Glands
Sweat Glands
Two types of sweat glands merocrine and apocrine
Merocrine
Produce a thin waters secretion known as Sweat
Apocrine
Produces an oderous secretion.
Sebaceous Glands
Produces an oily material that coats hair shafts and the epidermal service
Sebum
The oily secretion produced by the sagacious glands

Homework
Chapter 5 – Integumentary System
1 a. List the layers of the epidermis from deep to superficial. (BSGLC)
"Stratum basale
b. Which layer is most alive and why?
The stratum germinativum is most alive because it is closest to the source of nutrients (blood vessels)
2 a. Compare the structure of the layers of the epidermis from deep to superficial.
"1) Stratum basale : Contains epidermal stem cells, melanocytes, and Merkel cells
b. Which layer of the skin is epithelial tissue?
The Epidermis
3 a. What are the 3 types of hair and when are they made?
"Lanugo: made during birth and cover most of the body. Usually replaced by another type of hair later.
b. Why is hair necessary?
It serves as a layer of environmental protection on our heads and provides enhanced sensory on the rest of our bosies.
4 a. What are the 3 zones along the length of hair?
The bulb, the route, the shaft
b. If a hair stops growing, where do you suspect is the damage? Why?
the folicle
5 a. Compare and contrast apocrine and merocrine sweat glands.
apocrine sweat glands are found in the axillae, groin, nipples. Merocrine sweat glands are found thoughout the body and secret mostly water.
b. Which is more abundant? Why?
Merocrine sweat gland are more abundant and serve a cooling function throughout the body
6 a. What and where is sebum?
Sebum is a secretion from the sebaceous gland that provide lubrication and inhibits the growth of bacteria. They are found at the hair follicles.
b. On a dry windy day, are sebaceous glands more or less active? Why?
Sebaceous glands are more active because the hair requires more lubrication from the drying effects of the wind.
7 a. List at least 5 structures found in the dermis.
Sebaceous gland, arrector pil muscle, sweat gland, hair folicle, lamellated corpuscle, nerve fibers.
b. What is the predominant tissue type(s) in the dermis?
connective tissue, papillary layer = loose CT , reticular layer = dense irregular CT
8 a. List at least one function for each of the structures in the dermis.
Sebaceous gland (produces moisture), arrector pili muscle, sweat gland (cooling), hair folicle(sensation), lamellated corpuscle, nerve fibers(sensation).
b. Are all these structures necessary? Give a couple examples when they are necessary.
9 a. Compare and contrast the 3 types of skin cancer.
"Basal cell carcinoma : orginates in the germinativum and is thought to be cause by UV light exposure.

Squamous cell carcinoma because it is the most survivable
10 a. List the 3 pigments to determine our skin color.
Hemoglobin, melanin and carotene.
