Integumentary

Karten in diesem Stapel (27)

  1. 1Integumentary systemHelps maintain body temperature and protects internal organs (i.e skin)
  2. 2Functions Integumentary system:-protects the body: resistance to trauma and infection
    -Moisture retention
    -Vitamin D synthesis
    -Sensation
    -Thermoregulation
  3. 3Epidermisthe surface epithelium of the skin of an animal, overlying the dermis
    -Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium
  4. 4Cells of epidermis are...-Kerantinocytes
    -Melanocytes
    -Epidermal dendritic (Langerhans) cells
    -Tactile (Merkel) cells
  5. 5Keratinocytesproduce fibrous protein keratin
  6. 6Melanocytes-10–25% of cells in lower epidermis
    -Produce pigment melanin
  7. 7Epidermal dendritic (Langerhans) cells- macrophages that help activate immune system
  8. 8Tactile (Merkel) cells- touch receptors
  9. 9Stratum corneum- Most superficial layer; 20–30 layers of dead
    - Cells, flat membranous sacs filled with keratin
  10. 10Stratum granulosum3-5 layers of flattened cells, organelles deteriorating
  11. 11Stratum spinosumSeveral layers of keratinocytes unified by
    desmosomes.
  12. 12Stratum basale- Deepest epidermal layer; one row of actively
    - mitotic stem cells; some newly formed cells become part of the more superficial layers.
    - Occasional melanocytes and epidermal
    dendritic cells.
  13. 13—KeratinocytesKeratinocytes
  14. 14DermisThe lower or inner layer of the two main layers of cells that make up the skin.
  15. 15Characteristics of Dermis- Strong, flexible connective tissue
    - helps regulate body temperature, and sebum, an oily substance that helps keep the skin from drying out.
  16. 16What lives in the dermis ?Hair, sweat and oil glands live here
  17. 17Two layers of dermis:- Papillary
    - Reticular
  18. 18What skin layer provides a rich supply of nerve, blood and lymphatic tissue?Dermis
  19. 19Papillary layer (dermis)Areolar connective tissue with collagen and elastic fibers and blood vessels
  20. 20Dermal papillae contain:- Capillary loops
    - Meissner’s corpuscles
    - Free nerve endings
  21. 21Reticular layer- 80% of the thickness of dermis
    - Collagen fibers provide strength and resiliency
    - Elastic fibers provide stretch-recoil properties
  22. 22Hypodermis (subcutaneous layer)the innermost and thickest layer of the skin
  23. 23What kind of tissue in hypodermis?Subcutaneous tissue:
    -adipose tissue & loose connective tissue
  24. 24Functions of hypodermis- energy reservoir
    - thermal insulation & padding for the body
  25. 25Hypodermic injections are __. (highly vascular)subcutaneous
  26. 26Organs of the Integumentary system are:Derivatives of the epidermis, which includes: -sweat glands, oil glands, hair and hair follicles, nails
