What are two classification of body membranes? - ANSWER: Epithelial Membranes and Connective
Tissue Membranes
What type of membrane is composed of epithelial tissue and a underlying layer of connective tissue? -
ANSWER: Epithelial Membrane
What type of membrane is composed largely of various types of connective tissue? - ANSWER:
Connective Tissue Membrane
What are 3 types of Epithelial tissue membranes? - ANSWER: Cutaneous membrane
Serous Membrane
Mucous Membrane
What type of Epithelial tissue membrane covers the skin? - ANSWER: Cutaneous Membrane
What type of Epithelial tissue contains a thin layer of SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM on top of a this
layer of connective tissue? What does this bottom layer of connective tissue do? - ANSWER: Serous
membrane
It asks as a glue like basement membrane that holds and supports the epithelial cells
Describe a serous membrane, what type of membrane is this? - ANSWER: It is type of Epithelial tissue
contains a thin layer of SIMPLE SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM on top of a thin layer of connective tissue
that holds and supports the epithelial cells
What kind of epithelium does a serous membrane have? - ANSWER: Simple Squamous Epithelium
What is the serous membrane called that lines the walls of body cavities? - ANSWER: Parietal layer
What is the serous membrane called that covers the surface of each organ within a body cavity? -
ANSWER: Visceral layer
In the thoracic cavity, what serous membrane covers each lung? - ANSWER: Pleura
In the abdominal cavity, what serious membrane covers most of the organs? - ANSWER: peritoneum
What is the serous membrane that covers the outside of the heart? - ANSWER: Pericardium
What is the term used to describe inflammation of the serous membrane in the abdominal cavity? -
ANSWER: Peritonitis
What is Pleurisy? - ANSWER: A painful condition where the serous membrane that lines the chest
cavity (pleura) and that covers the lungs (viscera) becomes inflamed.
What type of Epithelial membrane lines the body surfaces that open directly to the exterior? -
ANSWER: Mucous membrane
What is mucus and what type of membrane produced it? - ANSWER: Mucus is a thick secretion that
keeps membranes soft and moist, the Mucous Membrane produces it
A mucous membrane is know as what type of membrane? - ANSWER: Epithelial membrane
, Membranes are characterized by what? - ANSWER: What tissues they are made out of
What type of membranes does not contain epithelial components? - ANSWER: Connective Tissue
Synovial fluid can be found in synovial membranes surrounding ball and socket joint (shoulder)
T or F - ANSWER: True
Connective tissues membranes produce a lubricant called? - ANSWER: Synovial Fluid
What type of membrane contains both epithelial and connective tissue components? - ANSWER:
Epithelial Membranes
What are the 2 primary layers of the skin? - ANSWER: Epidermis and Dermis
What is the OUTERMOST, THINNEST PRIMARY layer of the skin? - ANSWER: Epidermis
What is the Epidermis layer of the skin composed of? - ANSWER: Stratified Squamous Epithelium
What happens in the Stratum Germinativum layer of the Epidermis? - ANSWER: The deepest layer of
cells that continually reproduce through mitosis and the new cells travel toward the surface
When stratum germunativum happens and the new cells push the old cells toward the surface, what
happens next? - ANSWER: The old cells flake off and the new cells are filled with keratin
What is Keratin? - ANSWER: A tough, waterproof protein that is found in hair nails, and outer skin
cells
What is the outermost layer of Keratin filled cells? - ANSWER: Stratum Corneum
What two layers make up the epidermis? - ANSWER: Stratum Corneum and Stratum Germinativum
The toughest outermost layer of the Epidermis is? - ANSWER: Stratum Corneum
What layer of the epidermis has pigment producing cells and is responsible for the production of
pigment (for skin)? - ANSWER: Stratum Germinativum
Melanocytes - ANSWER: Pigment producing cells
What 2 characteristics help determine basic skin color? - ANSWER: Type of Melanin and the type of
genes
Melanin - ANSWER: a brown pigment in the skin, gets darker by sunlight
Melanocytes distribute Melanin to epithelial cells throughout the body
T or F - ANSWER: True
Pink (flushed) skin indicates what? - ANSWER: increased blood volume or increased blood O2
Cyanosis - ANSWER: Blueish color of skin
Cyanosis indicated what? - ANSWER: Decreased blood O2 Level
The junction that exists between the thin epidermal layer of the skin above ad the dermal layer below
is a type of basement membrane called? - ANSWER: Dermal and Epidermal Junction
