6.

The basement membrane is located between which of the following tissue types?

Your Answer: Epithelial and muscle


Correct Answer: Epithelial and connective
Epithelial tissue secretes the superficial basal lamina region of the basement membrane, whereas

flat cells.

20.

Which of the following indicates the proper sequence of tissue repair?

Your Answer: Tissue damage, blood clotting, scab formation, organization, fibrosis and
regeneration
Following tissue damage, a blood clot forms which dries and forms a scab which will be replaced, via
the process of organization, with granulation tissue, which, in turn, gives rise to regenerated tissue
and fibrous scar tissue through the processes of regeneration and fibrosis.

21.

Which of the following are structural characteristics of epithelial tissue?

Your Answer: Closely packed cells without much extracellular material


Epithelial tissue has numerous, closely packed cells with very little extracellular material.

1.

Wounded skin releases large quantities of protective peptides that help prevent
some infections.

Your Answer: True


These peptides (cathelicidins) are particularly effective in preventing infection by
group A streptococcus bacteria.

2.

A surgical incision performed on the forearm will heal more readily if the incision is
made along a longitudinal plane rather than along a transverse plane.

Your Answer: True


Because lines of cleavage run longitudinally in the skin of the limbs, an incision
made parallel to these lines will result in the skin gaping less and healing more
readily than when an incision is made along a transverse plane across cleavage
lines.

3.

Because of the great thickness of the epidermis, it is very vascular.

Your Answer: False


Like all epithelia, the epidermis is avascular and relies on capillaries in the
underlying connective tissue for its nutrients.

4.

Dermal blood vessels hold only 1% of the body's blood, and therefore the skin does
not contribute significantly as a blood reservoir.

Your Answer: True

Your Results for "True-False Quiz"

2 of 5

http://wps.aw.com/wps/grader

Correct Answer: False


Dermal blood vessels account for 5% of all the blood in the body and contribute to
the skins role as a blood reservoir.

5.

Sweat is produced as a holocrine secretion, in which the cells themselves break up


to form the product.

Your Answer: False


Sweat is produced as secretions pass through the secretory cells of the sweat
glands by the process of exocytosis, leaving the secretory cells intact.

6.

The dermis functions in helping to control body temperature.

Your Answer: True


Dermal blood vessels not only contract, reducing heat loss, but engorge with blood
as well, allowing heat to radiate from the body.

7.

The body produces carotene when exposed to sunlight.

Your Answer: False


Carotene is found in certain plant products. We obtain it by eating plants containing
this pigment.

8.

The hypodermis is also known as the subcutaneous layer as well as the deep fascia.

Your Answer: False


The hypodermis can correctly be referred to as the subcutaneous layer as well as
the superficial fascia.

9.

The main function of hair over most of the surface of the human body is to prevent
heat loss.

10/28/2014 10:23 PM

Your Results for "True-False Quiz"

3 of 5

http://wps.aw.com/wps/grader

Your Answer: False


The main function of our sparse body hair is to sense things that lightly touch our
skin, and provide minor protective roles (e.g. eyelashes shield the eyes). Only on
the scalp does hair provide some prevention of heat loss..

10.

Melanocytes are the most abundant cells in the epidermis.

Your Answer: False


Keratinocytes, by far the most abundant epidermal cells, produce keratin, a tough
fibrous protein that gives the epidermis its protective properties.

11.

The skin functions in synthesizing vitamin D.

Your Answer: True


Vitamin D, important in the uptake of calcium, is produced in the skin from modified
cholesterol molecules.

12.

The sebaceous and sweat glands, located in the dermis, are derived from the
epidermis.

Your Answer: True


Skin appendages, including hair and hair follicles, sebaceous glands, oil glands, and
nails, extend into the dermis, but are derived from the epidermis.

13.

The superficial region of the skin is called the epidermis.

Your Answer: True


The epidermis is the superficial region of the skin, overlaying the deeper dermis.

Your Answer: False


Cyanosis indicates lack of oxygen.

16.

A child who has been playing in the dirt will often accumulate dirt in the lunule of
the nail.

Your Answer: False


The dirt accumulates in the hyponychium of the nail.

17.

Blood vessels in the dermis constrict when the external environment is cold,
minimizing heat loss from the skin.

Your Answer: True


Constriction causes warm blood to bypass the skin temporarily, thereby conserving
body heat.

18.

Melanin functions as an effective "sunscreen."

Your Answer: True


Melanin is able to convert potentially destructive radiation into harmless heat.

boundary.

Your Answer: True


The dermis contains the papillary and reticular layers, which abut one another along
an indistinct boundary.

21.

Arrector pili muscles cause "goosebumps."

Your Answer: True


Arrector pili muscles elevate hair follicles, causing them to bulge on the surface of
the skin.
