Layers of the epidermis Answer: stratum corneum, stratum lucidum, stratum
granulosum, stratum spinosum, stratum basale
Where can I find a keratinocyte? Answer: Stratum basale
Where can I find a melanocyte? Answer: Stratum basale
Where can I find dendritic cells? Answer: Stratum spinosum
What is the difference between an acne pus gland and apocrine suderiferous

suderiferous comes from hair follicles
Where can I find Meisner corpuscles? Answer: Meissner corpuscles are
ellipsoid mechanoreceptors located superficially within the dermal papillae at a
depth of approximately 150 micrometers
Where can I find the Pacinian corpuscle? Answer: The corpuscles are present in
skin (both glabrous and hairy) - notably both surfaces of the hands and feet,
arms, neck, nipple, and external genitalia - as well as certain internal structures
(joints, periosteum and interosseous membranes of bone, and mesenteries).
Which layers of the epidermis are considered thin skin? Answer: Stratum

, 2
Meissner's corpuscles Answer: sensitive touch receptors in the dermis
Pacinian corpuscles Answer: respond to deep pressure and vibration
suderiferous glands Answer: sweat glands (eccrine and apocrine)
apocrine glands _ Answer: Sweat glands in the pubic and underarm areas that
secrete thicker sweat, that produce odor when come in contact with bacteria on
the skin
Eccrine glands _ Answer: glands that produce sweat; found over most of the
body
Hair root Answer: The part of the hair contained within the follicle, below the
surface of the scalp.
hair papilla Answer: a peg of connective tissue containing capillaries and nerves
sebaceous glands Answer: secrete sebum (oil) into the hair follicles where the
hair shafts pass through the dermis
long bones Answer: bones of the arms and legs
Short bones Answer: cube shaped bones of the wrist and ankle
Flat bones Answer: These bones are thin, flat, and curved. They form the ribs,
breastbone, and skull.
irregular bones Answer: vertebrae and facial bones
Compact bones Answer: Tightly packed bones. Found in diaphysis of long
bones, outside of all bones
spongy bone Answer: Layer of bone tissue having many small spaces and
found just inside the layer of compact bone.
trabecular bone Answer: interior, spongy bone with a porous, honeycomb
structure
