|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 신체를 싸고 있는 바깥층으로서 표피, 진피, 피하조직으로 구성되며, 외부 환경으로부터 신체를 보호하고 체온을 조절하는 기능을 가짐. 1.표피: 피부의 가장 바깥층으로서 외배엽에서 기원하며 각질이라는 구조 단백질을 생산하는 기능을 가짐. 4가지의 세포가 있는데, 각질세포, 멜라닌세포, Langerhans 세포, 부정형 세포, Merkel세포가 있다. 표피에는 이 4가지 세포외에 다음과 같은 표피 부속기가 있다. 에크린 땀샘(eccrine sweat gland): 점막 피부 경계 부위 등 특수한 부위를 제외한 모든 피부에서 발견되며 땀을 분비하는 샘으로서 신체 열 조절 체계의 중요한 요소. 아포크린샘(apocrine gland): 겨드랑이, 젖꽃판, 항문 생식기 부위, 외이도, 눈꺼풀 등에서만 발견되며 분비물의 기능은 잘 알려져 있지 않으나 동물에서는 방어 및 성적 기능이 있음. 털주머니(hair follicle): 손바닥, 발바닥 등 특수 부위를 제외한 신체 전 부위에 분포하며 인간에서 중요한 생리적 기능은 없으나 성적 매력을 지니는 신체 장식의 기능을 가짐. 기름샘(sebaceous gland): 손바닥과 발바닥을 제외한 전 피부에 분포하며 분비물을 기름(sebum)라 부름. 남성 호르몬의 자극에 의해 성장하며 생리적 기능은 잘 알려져 있지 않음. 손발톱(nail) 2. 진피: 표피 아래에 존재하는 중배엽 기원의 조직으로서 혈관, 림프관, 신경, 근육, 표피 부속기 등을 포함하고 있음. 표피 바로 밑의 부위를 유두 진피라 하고 아래층을 망상 진피라 한다. 조직 섬유에는 아교질 섬유, 그물 섬유, 탄력 섬유의 세 종류가 있다. 3. 피하 조직: 진피 아래에 존재하며 중배엽 기원으로서 보온 작용, 충격 흡수 작용, 영양 저장 작용의 기능이 있다. |

| genetic burden | The genetic debt due to harmful mutation but as yet undischarged. (In a large population of fixed size every mutation with diminished genetic fitness will eventually become extinct and depending on the details of inheritance and phenotype must be paid for by a fixed number of genetic deaths per mutation, the genetic debt.) (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| genetic carrier | An unaffected heterozygote bearing a usually harmful recessive gene, a cancer that bears a dominant but latent age-dependent trait to have offspring with unbalanced karyotypes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic code | <molecular biology> Relationship between the sequence of bases in nucleic acid and the order of amino acids in the polypeptide synthesised from it. A sequence of three nucleic acid bases (a triplet) acts as a codeword (codon) for one amino acid. (18 Nov 1997) |
| genetic colonisation | <molecular biology> The process of a parasite (such as a virus) inserting genes into a host's genome which cause the host cell to synthesise products that are only useful to the parasite. (07 May 1998) |
| genetic complement | <biology, genetics> The set of chromosomes contained within any one particular cell. (07 May 1998) |
| genetic complementation | <genetics> The reappearance of wild-type characteristics in a cell or organism that has had two distinct mutations on the same chromosome. Two normal versions of two different mutant genes on different chromosomes affecting the same phenotype which, when inherited together, results in the wild-type phenotype despite the presence of mutant copies of the genes. (09 Oct 1997) |
| genetic complementation test | A test used to determine whether or not complementation (compensation in the form of dominance) will occur in a cell with a given mutant phenotype when another mutant genome, encoding the same mutant phenotype, is introduced into that cell. (12 Dec 1998) |
| genetic compound | In medical genetics, the presence of two different mutant alleles at the same loci. Synonym: genetic compound. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic counseling | <genetics> The genetic testing of couples who are planning to be parents in which their genomes are evaluated and they are given advice or information from a specialist regarding the likelihood of them having children with genetic diseases or defects. (07 May 1998) |
| genetic death | Death of the bearer of a gene at any age before generating living offspring. May be compatible with good health and long life. See: genetic lethal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic determinant | Any antigenic determinant or identifying characteristic, particularly those of allotypes. Synonym: genetic marker. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic disease | <biology, genetics> A disease, such as cystic fibrosis, that has its origin in changes to the genetic material, DNA. Usually refers to diseases that are inherited in a Mendelian fashion, although noninherited forms of cancer also result from DNA mutation. (07 May 1998) |
| genetic disequilibrium | A state in the genetic composition of a population which under selection may be expected to change toward an equilibrium or absorbing state. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic distance | <molecular biology> A way of measuring the amount of evolutionary divergence in two separated populations of a species by counting the number of allelic substitutions per locus that have cropped up in each population. (09 Oct 1997) |
| genetic diversity | <genetics> A property of a community of organisms of a certain species, in which members of the community have variations in their chromosomes due to a large number of slightly dissimilar ancestors, this property makes the community in general more resistant to diseases or to changing ecological conditions.
