the epidermal layer found only in thick skin is

stratum lucidum

the four primary tissue types are

the cell type that is responsible for maintaining bone once it has been formed is the

osteocyte

which of the following functions is associated with the skin

protection against ultraviolet radiation of the sun

the type of cell connection that serves as a permeability barrier is a

tight junction

arrange the following events of endochondral ossification in the proper sequence (1) cartilage matrix is calcified and condrocytes die (2) chondrocytes hypertrphy (3) cartilage model is formed (4) osteoblasts deposit bone on the surface of the calcified cartilage of the primary ossification center (5) blood vessels from the periosteum invade calcified cartilage bringing in osteoblasts and osteoclasts

small channels extending through the bone matrix are

canaliculi

which of the following statements concerning connective tissue is true

collagen fibers provide strength to dense connective tissue

which of the following categories of epithelium is based on cell shape

columnar

the bluish tinge of skin due to a reduction of oxygen in the blood is called

cyanosis

calcitonin is associated with

decreased osteoclast activity

this layer of skin is composed of keratinocytes

epidermis

epiphyseal plate

long bones grow in length at the

epiphyseal plate

melanin production can be influenced by

exposure to sunlight pregnancy hormones genetics

the spaces between developing skull bones that have not ossified are called

fontanels
