The Four Body Membranes
Cutaneous
Mucous
Serous
Synovial
Cutaneous Membrane
It is external and the largest of the four membranes
It is commonly called the skin
It is the thickest, comprised of two layers
Cutaneous Membrane
It is the driest of the four, but does produce fluids:
> sebum – sebaceous glands
> sweat – sudoriferous glands
> milk – mammary glands
Cutaneous Membrane
Cutaneous
Mucous Membranes
They are internal, covering the openings to the
external environment:
+ digestive – mouth & anus
+ respiratory – mouth & nasal
+ urinary – urethra
+ reproductive – urethra
(males) & vagina (females)
Mucous Membranes
They are thin, but comprised of three layers:
+ epithelial
+ loose connective (aerolar)
+ muscle
Mucous Membranes
These membranes carry out three functions:
+ absorption
+ secretion
+ protection
Mucous Membranes
They secrete mucus which can vary in its viscosity
The mucus moistens the openings and passageways,
increasing absorption and trapping pathogens &
foreign particles
Serous Membranes
They are internal membranes that line body cavities
and cover internal organs
These membranes are thin, comprised of two layers:
+ epithelial
+ loose connective (aerolar)
Serous Membranes
They produce a thin, watery fluid called serous fluid
which is used as an internal lubricant, reducing
friction between internal structures
Synovial Membranes
They are internal membranes that line specific
skeletal joints called synovial joints
These membranes are comprised of one layer of thick
fibrous connective tissue
Synovial Membranes
They produce a viscous, slippery fluid called synovial
fluid which is used to lubricate the highly moveable
synovial joints
Functions of the
Integumetary
Acts as a barrierSystem
to:
* infection
* water
* UV radiation
* chemicals
Resists trauma
Functions of the
Integumetary
System
Assists in the production of vitamin D
Sensory perception
Thermoregulation
The Skin
The skin (integument) is made up of two layers:
 epidermis – superficial &
stratified epithelium
 dermis – deep connective tissue
The skin is supported by another layer of connective
tissue called the hypodermis
The Skin
The Skin
The epidermis is made up of five layers which are
composed mainly of two types of cells:
 keratinocytes
 melanocytes
The Skin
Keratinocytes:
 epithelial cells that migrate from
bottom to top of epidermis
 they die as they migrate
 they fill with keratin, flattening
the cell and waterproofing them
The Skin
Melanocytes:
 epithelial cells that produce the
pigment melanin (brown to black)
 all people have approximately
the same number
 color of skin and hair is
determined by these cells
The Skin
The Skin
The dermis is the thickest stratum of the skin, made
up of a single layer of connective tissue
It is composed mainly of collagen, but also contains
elastic fibers and other fibrous connective tissues
The Skin
The dermis contains:
 a rich supply of blood vessels
 nerves and nerve endings
 glands - oil and sweat
 muscle tissue
 the “roots” of hair and nails
The Skin
The Skin
The deeper zone of the dermis can be stretched,
resulting in tearing of the collagen fibers and
producing scars called striae
Superficial scars are produced after trauma when
fibrous connective tissues replace epithelial tissues
The Skin
The hypodermis is a layer of connective tissues that
lies just inferior to the skin
It is sometimes referred to as the subcutaneous layer
It functions to attach the skin to the underlying
tissues and act to pad the body
The Skin
The hypodermis is comprised mainly of areolar and
adipose tissues and is highly vascularized
The fat found in the adipose tissues is unequally
distributed in the hypodermis and accumulates
differently in males and females
The Skin
The fat of the hypodermis functions as an energy
reservoir and has a slight insulative value
Derivatives of the Epidermis
Hair - found only in mammals
Sebaceous glands - oil glands
Sudoriferous glands - sweat
glands
Nails - protecting the digit
tips

System
Support - provides a framework
Protection - encloses vital organs
Movement - provides points of
attachment for muscles
- functions as levers
Production of blood cells
Reservoir for minerals
Long Bone
Anatomy
Features of Compact Bone
Features of Spongy Bone
Calcium Homeostasis
Osteoblasts - bone building cells
- reduce blood Ca2+ levels
Osteoclasts - bone reducing cells
- increase blood Ca2+ levels
Calcium Homeostasis
Calcitonin - hormone secreted by thyroid
- stimulates osteoblasts to
remove Ca2+ from the blood
and deposit it in bone
PTH - parathyroid hormone (hormone
secreted by the parathyroids)
- stimulates osteoclasts to
remove Ca2+ from the bone and
release it into the blood
Calcium Homeostasis
Calcitriol - a form of vitamin D
- stimulates increased Ca2+
absorption from the intestine
Growth hormone - secreted by the
anterior pituitary
- stimulates epiphyseal
plates
Calcium Homeostasis
Estrogen - secreted by the ovaries
- increases bone deposition
(mass) & feminizes the skeleton
Testosterone - secreted by the testes
- increases bone deposition
(mass) & masculinization
of the skeleton
Calcium Homeostasis
Calcium Homeostasis
Intramembranous Ossification
Endochondral Ossification
Bone Growth & Remodeling
Homeostatic Imbalances of Bone
Rickets - caused by insufficient
calcium intake or vitamin
D deficiency
- childhood disease
- bones are pliable & will
bow out
- bones continue to grow
Homeostatic Imbalances of Bone
Osteomalacia - caused by
insufficient calcium
intake or vitamin
D deficiency
- adult form of rickets
- bones “soften” &
become brittle
Homeostatic Imbalances of Bone
Both rickets and osteomalacia can be eliminated by
drinking milk fortified with vitamin D or increased
exposure to sunlight
Homeostatic Imbalances of Bone
Osteoporosis:
- a group of diseases in which
bone destruction outpaces bone
deposition
- affects entire skeleton, especially
spongy bone
- prevalent in post menopausal
women
Homeostatic Imbalances of Bone
Osteoporosis causes:
- decreased estrogen levels
- petite body form
- insufficient exercise
- smoking
- poor diet
Therapies slow down losses, but cannot reverse them

Joint Connective Tissues
Joints are made up of many other tissues and
structures than just bone
These other tissues and structures function to bind,
cushion and stabilize joints
Joint Connective Tissues
Intervertebral discs are fibrocartilaginous discs that
connect vertebrae, forming a cartilaginous joint
Ligaments are fibrous connective tissues that bind
bone to bone
Tendons are fibrous connective tissues that connect
muscle to bone
Joint Connective Tissues
Articular cartilages are found on the epiphyses of long
bone and function to cushion and reduced friction in
the joint
Articular cartilages of the knee form C shaped
extensions (menisci) that function to enhance the
seating of the femur on the tibia
Joint Connective Tissues
Bursae are flattened fibrous sacs lined with synovial
membrane that produce synovial fluid
Bursae are found in synovial joints where bone,
muscle, skin, tendons & ligaments rub against each
other
Joint Connective Tissues
Bursae act as bags of lubricant, reducing the friction
between the structures that rub against each other
Joint Connective Tissues

Joint Disorders
Sprain - stretched or torn ligaments
- will usually heal on their own,
but very slowly
- complete tears must be repaired
surgically
Joint Disorders
Strain - excessively stretched or
partially torn muscle
- due to overuse or abuse
- inflammation many times
immobilizes the joint
Joint Disorders
Bursitis - inflammation of the bursae
due to trauma, friction or
overuse
Tendonitis - inflammation of tendon
sheaths due to overuse
Joint Disorders
Slipped disc - the bulging of an
intervertebral disc due to
overuse and abuse
- the bulging disc presses
against nerves causing a
variety of symptoms
Joint Disorders
Arthritis is a term used to describe over 100 types of
inflammatory or degenerative diseases of the joints
Joint Disorders
Osteoarthritis - “wear and tear” arthritis
- chronic condition in
which articular
cartilages gradually
wear away
- onset is slow,
progressive and
irreversible
Joint Disorders
Rheumatoid arthritis
- a chronic inflammatory, autoimmune
disorder
- onset is quick and irreversible
- synovial joint inflammation causes
accumulations of fluid, developing
swelling and damage to joint tissues
- is crippling and debilitating
Joint Disorders
Gout – a condition caused by the
accumulation of uric acid in
synovial joints
- usually due a poor diet (one rich
in fats)
- can be corrected, but if left
untreated can cause irreversible
damage to joint tissues
