Study Notes
Integumentary System
- Integumentary refers to the skin system
- Study resources include a video link about skin
Skin Structure
- Epidermis: outermost layer
- Dermis: lies beneath the epidermis
- Subcutaneous Layer: is below the dermis
- Sebaceous Glands: secrete sebum (oil)
- Sweat Gland: produces sweat

- Arterial Blood: transports oxygenated blood
- Venous Blood: carries deoxygenated blood
Body Membrane Functions
- Body membranes cover surfaces
- Line body cavities are lined by body membranes
- Protective sheets form around organs due to membranes
- Membranes provide lubrication to reduce friction
Classification of Body Membranes
- Epithelial Membranes
- Cutaneous membranes are dry and exposed externally
- Mucous membranes are moist and line cavities open to the exterior
- Serous membranes line closed body cavities
- Connective Membranes
- Synovial membranes line joint cavities and provide lubrication
Skin Functions
- Protection from mechanical damage
- Protection from chemical damage
- Protection from UV damage
- Protection from thermal damage
- Protection from bacterial damage
- Prevention from desiccation damage
- Body temperature control via sweat and blood flow
- Excretion of urea and uric acid
- Synthesis of vitamin D
- Housing sensory receptors
Dermis & Skin Color
- Dermis comprises collagen, elastic fibers, and nerve endings.
- Melanin: leads to brown or black skin tones
- Carotene: leads to yellow-orange skin tones
- Hemoglobin: leads to pink or red skin tones
- Cyanosis: causes blue skin due to low oxygen
- Redness or Erythema: reddening of the skin
- Pallor or Blanching: paleness of the skin
- Jaundice or Yellow Cast: yellowing of the skin
- Bruises or Black-and-Blue (Ecchymosis/Hematomas): indicate blood accumulation
- Decubitus Ulcers: are bedsores from prolonged pressure

- Second Degree (Partial Thickness): involves the epidermis and part of the dermis
- Third Degree (Full Thickness): destroys the epidermis and dermis
- Critical Burns.
- Second-degree burns cover 25% or more of the body
- Third-degree burns cover 10% or more of the body
- Third-degree burns occur on the face, hands, or feet
Thinking About Skeletal Muscle Activity
- Muscles cross at least one joint
- The bulk of a muscle lies near the joint it crosses
- Muscles have at least two attachment points: an origin and an insertion
- Muscles can shorten or resist being lengthened
- Contraction brings one bone closer to another
Muscles and Movement
- Muscles facilitate body movement by moving attached bones
- Tendons attach muscles to bones
- Ligaments join bones to other bones
Lower Limb Muscles
- These muscles are located in the legs
