13. lubricating fluid secreted in the joints

14. epithelial membrane lining body cavities open to the exterior such as the GI tract; epithelial tissue varies by location and connective tissue layer (lamina propria); continuously bathed in mucous secretions and adapted for absorption or secretion

15. functions of the integument

16. skin, hair, and accessory structures

17. 90% of epidermal cells, produce keratin and lamellar granules; found throughout the epidermis

18. 8% of skin cells, produce pigments to absorb UV radiation; found in the stratum basale

19. contact sensory neurons found at the epidermal/dermal junction

20. epidermal cells that mount immune response; found throughout epidermis

21. also known as stratum germinativum; mitotically active layer of epidermis that produces new keratinocytes; has tonofilaments for attachment; melanocytes found here

22. 2nd deepest layer of epidermis; has tonofilaments present for strength and stability and immature keratinocytes

23. keratinocytes begin dying and flattening & release keratin and lamellar granules; 3rd deepest layer of skin

24. layer of epidermis only in thick skin (i.e. palms of hands & soles of feet); made of flattened dead cells; when present, is 2nd most superficial layer

25. most superficial epidermal layer; flattened, dead cells that are continually shed; ¾ of epidermal thickness; Durable, protects deeper cells fromenvironment and water loss; resists
biological, chemical, physical damage

26. needed when skin has been damaged and a significant portion of the stratum basale is damaged/gone; donor skin is used to replace damaged skin

27. chronic skin disorder characterized by more rapid division and movement of keratinocytes through the epidermal strata (cells shed in 7-10 days); keratin formed is abnormal; flaky, silvery scales

28. deep layer of the skin made of dense irregular connective tissue; binds the body together; the location of tattoo ink injection; has two major regions; varies in thickness; has collagen and elastic fibers throughout; capillaries help maintain body temperature homeostasis

29. superficial layer of the skin made of keratinized stratified squamous epithelial tissue; 4-5 layers

30. upper dermal region; has dermal papillae that extend up into the epidermis; contains capillary loops to furnish nutrients to the epidermis; houses pain receptors (free nerve endings) and touch receptors; gives "fingerprints"

31. deepest skin layer; lower dermal region; contains irregularly arranged ct fibers and blood vessels, sweat, and oil glands; contains deep pressure receptors (lamellar corpuscles); phagocytes

32. stretch marks; tears in the dermis; # of elastic fibers in dermis affects likelihood of having these (genetic)

33. fingerprints; formed during 3rd month of fetal development

34. pigment produced in skin to protect the cells from UV radiation

35. complete or partial loss of melanocytes from patches of skin resulting in irregular white spots; may be due to immune system malfunction where antibodies attack melanocytes

36. inherited inability to produce melanin

37. tissue with large amounts of matrix

38. yellow color to skin and whites (sclera) of eyes caused by deposits of excess bile salts in tissues due to liver problems

39. the outermost layer of skin, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone

40. cells that produce the pigment, melanin

41. produces and secretes an oily substance that lubricates the skin and hair

42. fat cells

43. contains connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands

44. deeper subcutaneous tissue; is made of fat and connective tissue

45. gland with a duct that secrets a substance (not a hormone) onto the surface of an organ

46. found all over the skin except on palms of hands and soles of feet; ducts typically empty into a hair follicle but some open directly to skin surface; secrete oily substance called sebum

47. sweat glands; more than 2.5 million per person; two types: eccrine & apocrine

48. oily substance secreted by sebaceous glands into hair follicles; Lubricant: keeps skin soft, moist, prevents hair from becoming brittle; antibacterial

49. glands found all over the body that produce sweat for maintaining body temperature and for excreting wastes

50. glands found in the axillary region, genetal region, breast, face-stimulated with stress

51. all accessory structures in integumentary system arise from....

52. earwax

53. modified sebaceous glands found in the ears that secrete earwax

54. encloses the root of the hair

55. base of the hair follicle; contains the papilla (blood vessels) and matrix (hair growth)

56. muscle that causes the hair to stand up when contracted

57. protein that makes up the majority of the hair shaft

58. portion of the hair that is not enclosed in the follicle

59. fine, soft hair on fetus during development; nonpigmented

60. short, fine hair that replaces lanugo

61. course, pigmented hair on head, eyelashes, & eyebrows

62. hard, keratinized epidermal cells over the dorsal surfaces of the terminal portions of the fingers and toes

63. repaired by enlargement and migration of basal cells, which use contact inhibition to stop cell growth after healed (grow and divide until touching other cells); epidermal growth factor stimulates basal cells to divide and replace the ones that have moved into the wound

64. wound healing which requires phases: inflammatory phase, migratory phase (epithelial cells beneath scab bridge the wound with granulation tissue, fibroblasts begin scar tissue), proliferative phase (intensifies migratory phase), maturation phase (scab sloughs off, restoring to normal; scar tissue formation (fibrosis) occurs in this type of wound healing

65. embryonic germ layer from which the epidermis is derived

66. embryonic germ layer from which the dermis is derived

67. typically occurs in the dermis due to loss of collagen, elasticity of fibers decreases, decreased immuneresponse, less oil and sweat, less melanocytes, skin thins

68. abnormal, uncontrolled increase in basal cells; only spreads in extreme cases (4 million cases each year; most common skin cancer)

69. 2nd most common skin cancer found in upper layer of epidermis; more than 1 million cases each year

70. most dangerous of the skin cancers; unrepaired DNA damage to skin cells form malignant tumors; originate in melanocytes (look like moles or develop from moles); 10,130 people annually; causes most deaths because it can mestasize
