Integumentary System Review
#1 The 5 Function(s) Physical protection Temperature Regulation Protects against water loss Excretion Synthesis of vitamin D3
#2 and #3 Serous, Mucous and Synovial Membranes Serous: line body cavities with no openings (thorax) Mucous: line cavities that open to outside (anus, nose) Synovial: line joints (elbow)
#4 Structure of Skin 2 layers – epidermis and dermis
#5 Which layer has the most accessories? The Dermis
#6 Epidermis Layers from outer to inner 1. Stratum Corneum 2. Stratum Lucidum 3. Stratum Granulosum 4. Stratum Spinosum 5. Stratum Basale
#7 Melanocytes in the Stratum Basale produce melanin
#8 Skin Color Is determined by 3 pigments Hemoglobin – red pigment within rbc Melanin – brown pigment in melanocytes Carotene – orange-yellow pigment found in both epidermal cells and dermal fat cells
#9 Dermis contains... 1. Elastic and fibrous connective tissue 2. Blood vessels integrated within to help regulate body temperature 3. Nerve tissue carries sensory impulese 4. Hair follicles 5. Sebaceous Glands (oil) 6. Sweat glands
#10 Subcutaneous contains... 1. Adipose tissue (insulation) 2. Larger blood vessels 3. Larger nerve fibers
#11 Accessory Structures of the Integument Hair follicles Oil and sweat glands Nails
#12 Hair Most skin surfaces Composed of recycled epidermal cells Arrector pilli muscle controls “goosebumps” Hair color is genetic
#13 & #14 Sebaceous Glands Attached to hair follicles (usually) Secrete oil which helps keep hair soft & waterproof Acne is a bacterial infection of the sebaceous gland
#15 Sweat Glands Most numerous in palms & soles Sweat is mostly water, but also salts and urea and uric acid. Some are specialized such as the ones in the ear (ear wax) Response to heat or emotional stress
#16 &17 Regulation of Body Temperature 37°C or 98.6°F Heat Lost = Heat Produced Thermometer is called the hypothalamus (in the brain) Internal regulation is called homeostasis (biological balance) Sweating, shivering, flushing, are examples of temperature regulation
