Study Notes
Anatomical Directions and Planes
- Distal part refers to the farthest point from the center of the body
- Coronal plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into anterior and posterior sections
- Transverse plane is a horizontal plane that divides the body into upper and lower sections
- Medial part refers to the middle point of the body or a structure
Sebaceous Glands Secretions
- Sebaceous glands secrete sebum
- Sebum is an oily substance that helps to moisturize the skin and hair
- Sweat glands, on the other hand, produce sweat, which helps to regulate body temperature
Movements and Muscles
- Pronation is a movement that involves rotating the forearm so that the palm faces downward
- Extension is a movement that involves increasing the angle between two bones
- Rotation is a movement that involves rotating a bone around a fixed axis
- Erector pili muscle is responsible for causing hair to stand upright
Muscle Types
- Skeletal muscles are attached to bones and help to move the body's skeleton
- Cardiac muscle is found in the heart and is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body
Epidermis and Dermis
- The epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin
- The dermis is the layer of skin beneath the epidermis
- The epidermis is closely connected to the dermis, with the dermis providing support and structure to the epidermis
