Cerumin (ear wax) is also secrete by sweat glands but in the ear
The purpose of sweat is thermoregulation
A&P of Hair correct answer Should be present everywhere expect the palms of

Color is provided by melanin
,A&P Of Nails correct answer A transparent plate made of keratin
Protects your fingers and toes and sensory function

A&P of Skin correct answer Epidermis
Epithelial cells make up this layer
Also made with keratin making it waterproof
No blood vessels here
Dermis
Nerves, hair follicles, glands, blood vessels here
Subcutaneous tissue
Anchors your skin to the underlying tissues
Stores fat for energy
Provides heat insulation and cushioning
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) correct answer Weakening (and bulging) of the
aorta in the abdomen
This is a medical emergency
Symptoms:
Sudden abdominal or back pain (like a tearing pain)
Elevated HR due to bleeding into the abdomen so their CO is going down
N/V
Dizziness
,Visible abdominal pulsations because you can see a pulse in their abdomen
Diagnosed by CT or ultrasound
Treatment: Surgical Repair
If it tears all the way open the patient will bleed out within minutes so they tend
to try to fix these before that happens
Abdominal areas correct answer
Abdominal Hernia correct answer May need surgical intervention
May not need to do anything

longitudinal muscles of the intestine
Flatus- intestinal gas
Defecation- emptying of the large intestine
Valsalva maneuver
Bearing down or straining trying to have a BM
Increasing abdominal pressure to encourage defecation
You are stimulating the vagus nerve with this
If they have CV disease or risk of MI you do not want them to do this
It also increases intracranial pressure so someone with a head injury should not
be doing this either

Most common cause if gall stones
Symptoms:
RUQ abdominal pain
N/V
Clay colored stool
Jaundice (Yellowing of the skin and eyes due to too much bilirubin in the skin)

You have to get a visual of that organ to know if it is inflamed or not
Treatment: Cholecystectomy
The consent form needs to say that they consent to both an open and
laparoscopic procedure
