100

Which cell in the epidermis produces a pigment to protect the nucelus from UV damage

Melanocytes

100

The type of skin cancers from lease malignant to most.

Basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma

100

True or False: Transcription occurs in the nucleus and translation occurs in the cytoplasm.

True

100

These 2 layers are found in the dermis.

Papillary (superficial) and reticular (deep)

100

___ are cells that secrete unmineralized bone extracellular matrix called osteoid.

Osteoblast

200

Which layer of the epidermis is only found in thick skin

Stratum lucidum 

200

This is used to evaluate burns and to estimate volume of fluid loss.

Rule of Nines

200

This enzyme is essential for transcribing the DNA template strand into a single mRNA strand.

RNA Polymerase

200

The dermis contains blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, epidermal hair follicles, oil/sweat glands and ___.

Nerves

200

____ are mitotically active stem cells in the periosteum and endosteum

Osteogenic/osteoprogenitor cells

300

TRUE or FALSE the stratum basale is the only layer of the epidermis that is vascularized (contains blood vessels/capillaries)

False

300

The bone disorder caused by poorly mineralized bones lacking sufficient hydroxyapatite in adults, and vitamin D deficiency in children.

Osteomalacia/rickets

300

Transcription and translation consists of these three stages.

Initiation, elongation, termination.

300

This region of the dermis sends finger like projections up into the epidermis, contains tactile corpuscles, and friction ridges (thick skin only).

Dermal papillae

300

As soon as a bone breaks, what is the first thing that happens?

A Hematoma forms

400

This layer accounts for 3/4 of epidermal thickness and functions to protect deeper cells from the environment, prevent water loss, protect from abrasion, and acts as a barrier

Stratum corneum

400

A group on diseases in which bone resorption exceeds deposit, and seen most in postmenopausal women.

Osteoporosis

400
DNA replication is the process of making 2 semiconservative, identical copies of DNA. What are the 6 enzymes used to do this?

Helicase, single stranded binding proteins, topoisiomerase, primase, DNA polymerase, ligase. 

400

These are located in the reticular layer and sense vibration and pressure.

Lamellar/pacinian corpuscles

400

Where does interstitial growth occur and what are the 5 zones?

Epiphyseal plate; resting, proliferation, hypertrophic, calcification, ossification

500

Which layer of the epidermis consists of a single row of stem cells that are mitotically active?

Stratum Basale.

500

This disease is caused by excessive and haphazard bone deposit and resorption causing bone to grow fast and develop poorly.

Paget's disease

500

Determine the polypeptide chain for the following strand of DNA 3'-TACGGTAGCACT-5'


mRNA - AUG CCA UCG UGA

Anticodon - UAC GGU AGC ACU

peptide chain - Met-Pro-Ser-Stop

500

True or False: Flexure lines are found in the papillary layer, tightly secured to deeper structures, and visible on hands, wrists, fingers, soles, and toes.

False

500

This type of growth is reliant on increased stress from muscle activity or added weight.

Appositional growth
