Question 1: Regeneration
Answer:
Replacement of dead/damaged cells within the same cell type
Question 2: Stratum Spinosum
Answer:
- Daughter cells from stratum basale pushed into this layer
- Begin to develop into specialized, non-dividing keratinocytes
Question 3: Functions of the epidermis
Answer:
Protection, prevention water loss/gain,secretion/absorption,immune function
Question 4: Vasodilation
Answer:
The diameter of the blood vessels increases, so more blood can travel through them. This process attempts to release excess heat and can cause a reddish hue to your skin.
Question 5: Papillary layer
Answer:
The superficial region of the dermis composed of areolar connective tissue.
Question 6: Hyponychium
Answer:
A region of thickened stratum corneum over which the free edge projects
Question 7: Nail fold
Answer:
Skin that covers the lateral and proximal edges of the nail
Question 8: 2nd stage of wound healing in skin
Answer:
A blood clot forms. Leukocytes clean the wound and edges are patched up to prevent pathogens entry.
Question 9: Hair Shaft
Answer:
Protrudes above the surface of the skin (Hair)
Question 10: 3rd stage of wound healing in skin
Answer:
The cut blood vessels regenerate and grow in the wound
Question 11: Cortex
Answer:
Forms the bulk of the hair;consists of cells containing hard keratin
Question 12: Dermis
Answer:
It is deep to the epidermis and composed of connective tissue proper and 2 layers known as the papillary and reticular layer.
Question 13: Nail matrix
Answer:
Proximal to the root nail;produces the nail
Question 14: Root
Answer:
The portion of the hair that is below the surface of the skin
Question 15: Functions of the dermis
Answer:
Temperature regulation, sensory reception, secretion and absorption
Question 16: Cuticle
Answer:
Outer layer of the hair;single layer of cells containing hard keratin
Question 17: 1st stage of wound healing in skin
Answer:
Cut blood vessels intiate bleeding into the wound. The blood brings clotting proteins, leukocytes, and antibodies.
Question 18: Cuticle
Answer:
Narrow band of epidermis extending from the margin of the nail wall onto the nail body
Question 19: Stratum Corneum
Answer:
20 to 30 layers of dead, interlocking keratinized cells Cells anucleate (without a nucleus) and tightly packed Most superficial layer of epidermis Surface unsuitable for the growth of many microorganisms
Question 20: Epidermis Layers
Answer:
Stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum, stratum corneum
Question 21: Stratum Lucidum
Answer:
- Two to three layers of keratinocytes
- Translucent layer also known as clear layer
- Superficial to the stratum granulosum
- Found only on thick skin within the palms and soles
Question 22: Lunula
Answer:
Whitish, crescent-shaped area at the base of the nail
Question 23: Nail bed
Answer:
Composed of epithelial tissue;contains the living cell layers
Question 24: Reticular layer
Answer:
It forms the major deeper portion of the dermis and is composed of dense irregular connective tissue.
Question 25: Stratum Basale
Answer:
The deepest epidermal layer that contains keratinocytes, melanocytes, and tactile cells.
Question 26: Dermal root sheath
Answer:
portion of the connective tissue that surrounds the epithelial root sheath
Question 27: Fibrosis
Answer:
Process of scar tissue deposition during healing
