than once
◉ Multi-use. Answer: Reusable items that can be cleaned and
disinfected even if exposed to blood or bodily fluids
◉ Cross-contamination. Answer: Touching an object without
cleaning hands and then touching another object
◉ Aseptic Procedures. Answer: Process of properly handling
sterilized and disinfected equipment and supplies
◉ Skin Histology. Answer: Study of the structure and composition of
the skin tissue
,◉ Skin Physiology. Answer: Study of the functions of living
organisms
◉ Second Degree. Answer: Affects the top two layers of the skin.
◉ Asymptomatic. Answer: Showing no symptoms or signs of
infection
◉ Porous. Answer: Made or constructed of a material that has
openings

normally exists in tap water
◉ Skin Histology. Answer: Study of the structure and composition of
the skin tissue
◉ Skin Physiology. Answer: Study of the functions of living
organisms
, ◉ 6 Skin Functions. Answer: Protection, Absorption, Secretion,
Excretion, Temperature Regulation, Sensation
◉ Protection. Answer: Acid mantle protective barrier made up of
sebum, lipids, sweat, and water. Forms a hydrolipidic film to protect
the skin from trying out from exposure to external factors.
◉ Sensation. Answer: Responds to touch, pain, cold, heat and
pressure
◉ Thermoregulation. Answer: Average internal temp is 98.6° F
through evaporation, perspiration, radiation, and insulation
◉ Excretion. Answer: Sudoriferous glands; sweat glands detoxifies
the body by excreting excess water, salt, and unwanted chemicals
◉ Secretion. Answer: Sebum; oily substance that protects and
lubricates the skin. Sebaceous glands; oil glands. Skin is 50 to 70%
water and slows down the evaporation of water Transepidermal
Water Loss (TEWL)
◉ Absorption. Answer: Absorbs water, ingredients, oxygen
necessary for skin's health.
