Layers of the skin epidermis, dermis, hypodermis
Protective durable overcoat, waterproof, tough,
Stratum Corneum relatively insensitive to biological, chemical and
physical assault.
, visible only in thick skin, few layers thick, dead clear
Stratum Lucidum
cells
Stratum Granulosum 3-5 layers of thick keratinocytes flastten out
overlies the stratum basale, cells come from the
basale, filaments u the cells that resist tension,
Stratum Spinosum
keratinocytes have a spiny appearance, contain
langerhen cells
Deepest layer, single row if renewing keratinocytes
Stratum Basale that are getting ready to push up, melaninocytes,
small portion of merkel cells
Parts of a neuron Cell body, Dendrites, Axon
Provide protein for maintaining and regenerating
Cell body
nerves
Each neuron had one or more dendrites, branch
Dendrites from the cell body, bring impulses in, distal ends of
dendrites of sensory neurons are receptors
Each neurons has one axon, axon hillock integrates
Axon incoming signals. axons carry impulses away and
communicates
Afferent neurons Brings signal to CNS, *sensory
Efferent neurons Carry signals away, *motor
