Body Systems
This body system is responsible for taking in oxygen and removing carbon dioxide.
respiratory system
This is known as the basic unit of the body.
Cell
This system provides the body's framework, protects internal organs, and provides support.
Skeletal System
This organ pumps blood throughout the body.
Heart
This organ is the largest organ of the human body and is the primary focus of esthetics.
Skin
This body system is responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and waste throughout the body.
Circulatory System
This part of the cell controls the cell's activities and contains genetic material.
Nucleus
What is the tissue surrounding an adult skeleton
Connective Bone Tissue
These blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues.
Red blood cells
This layer of the skin is the outermost layer and contains cells called keratinocytes.
Epidermis
This system is responsible for breaking down food and absorbing nutrients
Digestive System
This organelle is often called the “powerhouse” of the cell because it produces energy.
Mitochondria
This type of muscle is attached to bones and is under voluntary control.
Skeletal Muscles
These vessels carry blood away from the heart.
Arteries
This layer lies beneath the epidermis and contains blood vessels, nerves, hair follicles, and glands.
Dermis
This system removes metabolic waste products from the body and helps regulate fluid balance.
Urinary System
This process occurs when a cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells.
Mitosis
These are the places where two or more bones meet.
Joints
This fluid circulates through lymph vessels and helps return excess tissue fluid to the bloodstream.
Lymph
These glands produce an oily secretion that helps lubricate and protect the skin and hair.
Sebaceous Glands
This system produces hormones that regulate many body functions, including growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
Endocrine System
This tissue covers and protects surfaces of the body and forms the epidermis of the skin.
Epithelial Tissue
This type of muscle is found in the walls of the heart and is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body.
Cardiac Muscle
This system helps defend the body against infection and returns excess fluid from tissues to the bloodstream.
Lymphatic System
An esthetician performs a facial and observes that a client's skin is producing excessive oil. Which type of gland is primarily responsible for producing this oil, and what is the secretion called?
Sebaceous Glands and sebum
