HTHS 1110 Unit 8 Test Questions and
All Correct Answers.
2 regions of dermis - Answer papillary region and reticular region
papillary region percentage of dermis - Answer 20%
reticular region percentage of dermis - Answer 80%
papillary region tissue type - Answer areolar connective tissue
what does the papillary region contain? - Answer blood capillaries, sensory touch receptors,
free nerve endings
Is the papillary region superficial or deep? - Answer superficial
reticular region tissue type - Answer dense irregular connective-strength in all directions
what does the reticular region contain? - Answer adipose cells, hair follicles, nerves,
sebaceous glands, sudoriferous glands
papillary fibers - Answer collagen and elastic fibers that offer some strength and stretch
where are the dermal ridges found? - Answer papillary region of dermis
reticular fibers - Answer thick collagen and course elastic fibers that tie strength and stretch
hypodermis tissue type - Answer areolar connective tissue, has adipocytes
functions of hypodermis - Answer insulation(fat), attach dermis to underlying structures(eg.
muscle tissue)
messier (touch) corpuscles - Answer light touch, in dermis
merkel (tactile) disks - Answer light touch, epidermis and dermis
, free nerve endings - Answer pain and temperature, itch, hair movement
Ruffini (bulbous) corpuscle - Answer skin stretch, position sense
sudoriferous glands-2 types - Answer eccrine and apocrine
eccrine(watery) - Answer more common in thick skin, duct goes right to the skin
what sudoriferous gland is used to cool skin?(thermoregulation) - Answer eccrine
apocrine - Answer associated with hair shaft
which sudoriferous gland has a more viscous secretion than eccrine sweat glands? - Answer
apocrine
which sudoriferous glands recreations contain pheromones(emotional and sexual arousal)? -
Answer apocrine
sebaceous (oil) glands - Answer associated with hair shaft, secretes sebum
function of sebaceous glands - Answer keep skin and hair soft
sebum - Answer a growth medium for the bacteria which causes acne
sebaceous gland distribution - Answer all hair skin(absent on palms and soles of feet)
sebaceous gland termination of duct - Answer mostly hair follicle
sebaceous gland secreation - Answer sebum
sebaceous gland function - Answer hair moist, prevents water loss from skin, inhibits
bacterial growth
sebaceous gland onset of function - Answer post puberty
