Q

Mucous membranes

A

line the body surfaces that open directly to the exterior. These produce mucus, which is a thick secretion that keeps the membranes soft and moist.

Q

Connective tissue membranes

A

lubricant called synovial fluid. Examples of these connective tissues are synovial membranes in spaces between joints and in the lining of bursal sacs. kneecap/patella

A

is composed largely of connective tissue.

also contains nerve endings, muscle fibers, hair follicles, sweat and sebaceous glands, and many blood vessels.

Q

arrector pili

A

is a specialized smooth muscle that produces goose bumps and causes hair to stand up straight

17
Q

Meissner corpuscle

A

allows the skin to be capable of detecting light touch

18
Q

Pacini corpuscle

A

allows the detection of pressure.

19
Q

nails

A

produced by epidermal cells
visible part is called the nail body
crescent-shaped is the lunula.
The nailbed may change color with a change in blood flow.

20
Q

two types of skin glands:

A

the sweat or sudoriferous glands and the sebaceous glands.

21
Q

Sweat glands are subsequently broken into

A

eccrine and apocrine sweat glands.

22
Q

eccrine sweat glands

A

produce perspiration and assists the body in heat regulation.

23
Q

Apocrine sweat glands

A

in the axilla and genitalia.
thicker secretion
breakdown by the skin bacteria that produces odor.

24
Q

Sebaceous glands

A

secrete oil or sebum for the hair and skin.

25
Q

The skin has three main functions.

A

protection first line of defense against infection by microbes, ultraviolet rays from the sun, harmful chemicals, and cuts and tear.
temperature regulation.3,000 calories of body heat per day.
skin is an enormous sense organ. environment.

26
Q

burns

A

The body is divided into 11 areas of 9% each.
first-degree burn/partial-thickness,only the surface layers of the epidermis.
second-degree burn partial-thickness burn and involves the deep epidermal layers and always causes injury to the upper layers of the dermis.
third-degree full-thickness burn complete destruction of the epidermis and dermis. may involve muscle and bone risk of infection is increased
