Integumentary System
Skin is an organ; integumentary system includes skin and its derivates
Derivates = hair, nails, glands, scales, feathers, furs, hooves, antlers
Functions of Integumentary System
Body temp reg., Vasomotor Control, Protection, Perception, Excretion/Secretion
Body Temp Regulation
1. Sweating
2. Vasomotor Control: control blood vessels
Hot = dilate vessels
Cold = constrict vessels
Brain prioritizes main organs over extremities
Protection function
skin is 1st line of defense against microorganisms.
They invade when abrasion, laceration, break etc.
the pH of skin is not conducive to growth of microorganisms = 5ish
Perception function
feeling, tactile/texture/temp feedback
Excretion/Secretion Function
Excretion - leaves body (sweat, oil)
Secretion - releases something but does not leave body
ex of secretion = tanning, pigment melena is released but stays inside body darkening skin
Synthesis of integumentary system
Glands:
Sweat glands
Oil glands
Mammary glands
Skin composition
Epidermis
Dermis
Hypodermis
Types of Skin
Thin - epidermis has 4 layers; has hair
Thick - epidermis has 5 layers; lacks hair
Layers of Epidermis
5 layers; called epidermal layers
CLGSB
1. Stratum Corenum (extremely thick)
2. Stratum Lucidum (layer missing in thin layer, very thin)
3. Stratum Granulosum (very thin)
4. Stratum Spinosum (very thick)
5. Stratum Basale (very thin)
Stratum Basale
Mitotically active; parent cell divides produces 2 daughter cells in basement membrane and migrate towards surface; takes 10-14 days for new skin cell to reach top
Keratinocytes
produces keratin; as cells migrate towards the surface, keratin kills new skin cells and are dead on surface, as they move up they get thinner due to force
Melanocytes
produce melanin (hormone);
melanin is dark/light aspect of skin
unicellular endocrine glands make melanin
Tactile/Merkel Cells
receptors for perception; temp/texture/pressure
Skin Tone Composition
Melanin- dark/light
Ceratines - yellow/orange pigments

2. Dermal papillae - belong to dermis-stick up
3. Epidermal pegs - belongs to epidermis-stick down
Interlocking fingers of papillae and pegs allow skin to stretch.

Bottom Dermis Region
Lower (65-80%)

2. Adipocytes
3. Hair follicles and associated structures (hair shaft, foot, arrector pili muscle -piloerection, hair stands up)

Muscle contracts, hair stands up
Arrector pili muscle contracts, hair stands up = goosebumps
Animals have ability to make hair stand up for warmth.

2. embryo differentiates -> hyaline cartilage or fibrous membrane
Endochondral Ossification (until grown)
Hyaline cartilage -> Long Spongy/compact bone
Intramembranous Ossification (until you die)
Fibrous membrane -> Flat spongy/compact bones
intramembranous ossification
fibrous membranes
(starts during embryo gensis)
Membrane is being replaced by bone.
At birth ossification is not complete to pass birth canal and brain grows faster than the skull.
endochondral ossification
hyaline cartilage
(starts during embryo gensis)
1. Blood vessels grow through the perichondrium, in the diaphysis.
2. Blood brings calcium into the cartilage, this becomes primary ossification center. Cartilage cells swell and burst -> change in pH.
3. Repeat steps 1-2 in each epiphysis.
4. Ossification spreads from each epiphysis toward the diaphysis and from the diaphysis toward the epiphysis.
5. When growth is complete the epiphyseal plate ossifies and becomes the epiphyseal line.

Cartilaginous - two or more joints meet. Type of connection formed between two different bone
Synovial - connection between two bones consisting of cartilage lined cavity filled with fluid. Most flexible type of type of joint between bones because the bones are not physically connected and can move freely in relation to one another.
What are the functional classifications of joints? Define each with regard to movability.
