Describe the major functions of the skin?
|
- Major line in defense against disease causing organisms.
- Prevents excess loss of fluids and materials - Helps maintain temperature |
|
Major characteristics of the skin?
|
-2 layers epidermis and dermis
- epidermis in 5 layers - Dermis connective contains glands, vessels, nerves |
|
Epidermis
|
superficial layer of skin, composed of stratified squamous epithelium.
|
|
Straturn corneum
|
dead tissue in epidermis
|
|
Dermis
|
thickest layer of the skin, below the epidermis, composed of blood vessels, nerves, smooth muscle and elastic and collangeous fibers.
|
|
Blood vessels
|
capillaries and venules disperse throughout the dermis.
|
|
Nerves
|
nerve endings in the dermis
|
|
Sweat glands-
|
simple, coiled tubular gland associated with a hair follicle within the axillary and pubic regions.
|
|
Sebaceous glands
|
oil gland associated with a hair follicle
|
|
Arrector pili muscle
|
bundle of smooth muscle fibers connected to the hair follicle.
|
|
Hair shaft
|
visible, nonliving portion of hair.
|
|
Cortex
|
layer of pigment
|
|
Medulla
|
center of hair shaft
|
|
Cuticle
|
outmost, cells layered in singles.
|
|
Root
|
same three layers
|
|
Follicle
|
surrounds the root, two layers, external root sheath, internal root sheath
|
|
Bulb
|
enlarged base of the hair that receives nutrients from blood vessels, composed of external and internal root sheath
|
|
Papilla
|
blood vessels, growth, nerves
|
|
Matrix
|
where the hair grows
|
|
Nail Matrix
|
epithelial cells, adds length
|
|
Cuticle-
|
external surface, proximal, extension of the epidermis
|
|
Process of deep wound healing (page 128)
|
Process of deep wound healing (page 128)
|
|
Process of deep wound healing Stage one
|
1. Inflammation- vasodilatation, opening of cell vessels, enlarged to fight off. Brings in white blood cells and fibroblasts.
|
|
Process of deep wound healing Stage two
|
2. Blood clot forms- unites the 2 edges of the wound
|
|
Process of deep wound healing Stage three
|
3. Clot becomes scab- epithelial tissue grows under scab, to “bridge” the gap.
|
|
Process of deep wound healing Stage four
|
4. Blood vessels are repaired
|
|
Process of deep wound healing Stage five
|
5. Maturation- final stage, when scab comes off.
|
|
Hypertrophic
|
scar produces too scar tissue, elevating about the normal epidermis tissue
|
|
Keloid-
|
too much scar tissue beyond the boarders of the scar.
|
|
Indicate the approximate weeks that mark the beginning of embryonic bone growth.
|
Begins in the 6th-8th week
|
|
Intamemebranous
|
flat bones within the membrane
|
|
Endochondral
|
long bones within the cartilage
|
|
3. Describe in detail the sequential steps in endochondral bone formation.
See page in packet |

|
Identify the parts of a long bone-
|
longer than they are wide, such as the humerus
|
|
Lamellae
|
weight- bearing, column like matrix tubes composed mainly of collagen.
|
|
Haversain canals
|
(central canals) central channel containing blood vessels and nerves
|
|
Osteocytes-
|
mature bone cells
|
|
Osteoblasts
|
bone- forming cells
|
|
Lacunae
|
small cavities in the bone contain osteocytes
|
|
Canaliculi
|
hair like canals that contain cytoplasm projections and connect lacunae to each other and central canals.
|
|
Four Bone cells
|
Osteoprogentiors
Osteobalsts Osteocytes Oseoclasts |
|
Osteoprogentiors cells
|
unspecialized stem cells derived from mesenchyme. Only bone cells to undergo cell division.
|
|
Oseoclasts
|
huge cells that resorb or break down bone matrix
|
|
Yellow bone marrow
|
found in marrow, medullary cavity of long bones
Composed mostly of fat cells |
|
Red Bone Marrow
|
found in spongy bone
Composed of blood, forming tissue and some fat. |
|

8. Review Bone Metabolism
|
|
Comminuted
|
bone fragments into three or more pieces; common in elderly
|
|
Spiral
|
ragged break when bone is excessively twisted; common in sport injury
|
|
Depressed
|
broken bone portions pressed inward, typical in skull fracture
|
|
Compression
|
bone is crushed; common in porous bones
|
|
Epiphyseal
|
epiphysis separates from diaphsis along epiphysis seal line; occurs where cartilage cells are dying
|
|
Greenstick
|
one end of the fractured bone is forcefully driven into the interior of the other end of the fracture bone.
|
|
Impacted
|
one end of the fractured bone is forcefully driven into the interior of the other end of the fractured bone
|
|
Stress
|
a series of microscopic fissure in the bone that forms without any evidence of injury to other tissue
