OL Lab 5: Integumentary system Learning Objectives: Identify the tissue and cellular features of the skin. Identify the structures associated with the skin. Correlate the anatomical features to its functions. Identify the role of the skin in thermoregulation and wound healing. Part A: Anatomy of the skin I. Microscopic anatomy of the skin.

Shields the deeper layers from injury and microbial invasion. B Stratum Granulosum It consists of hairless 3-5 layers of dead keratinized cells. C Stratum SpinosumIt consists of numerous keratinocytes arranged in 8-10 layers, with projections of melanocytes and intraepidermal macrophages D Stratum BasaleDeepest later where newly produced skin cells push older ones toward the surface. E Basement Membrane Provides structural support and filters cells, separating tissues and protecting them. F Sensory Nerve Detects the sensation of touch. G Dermis Supports and protects the skin while aiding in thermoregulation. It possesses the ability to stretch and recoil easily. H Intraepidermal Macrophages They engage in immune responses to assist other immune cells in identifying and eliminating invading microbes. I Tactile Epithelium It detects light touch. J Keratinocyte It produces keratin, which helps restore the epidermal barrier. K Melanocyte Produce melanin granules.

B Blood vessels Regulate body temperature. C Arrector pili muscle Causes goosebumps and hair to rise. D Sebaceous gland Produce oil. E Apocrine sweat gland Secretes sweat into hair follicles in axillary and pubic regions. F Hair bulb Responds to hair movement.
