the science of studying the functional activities and its mechanisms in biological body.

Physiology

Physiology is derived from the greek word

Physis means nature and logos means study

Who emphasized the relationship between structure and function

Artistotle

Who was the first to perform experiments to understand the function of the body; so known to be father of physiology

Galen

The first “physiologist” of the world, in the modern sense

William harvey

propounded the concept of milieu interieur or internal environment and established physiology as the scientific basis of medicine.

Claude bernard (1813-1878)

THE FATHER OF MODERN PHYSIOLOGY IS THE FRENCH PHYSIOLOGIST

CLAUDE BERNARD

Give some subdivision of Physiology

viral physiology, bacterial physiology, cellular physiology, plant physiology, human physiology

the science of studying the rule of physiological functions in human body.

Human Physiology

What is the Atoms that combine to form molecules

Chemical level

Molecules form organelles

Cell level

Similar cell and surrounding material make up tissue

Tissue level

Different tissues combine to form organ

Organ level

Organs, such as urinary bladder, kidneys, make up an organ

Organ systems level

Organ systems make up with organism

Organism level

This separates the cell contents, or cytoplasm, from the extracellular fluid.

plasma membrane (cell membrane)

It is a general term for the material located between the plasma membrane and the membrane surrounding the nucleus. Its consistency varies from that of thin maple syrup to almost-set gelatin. It contains many more proteins than does extracellular fluid

Cytoplasm

Cytoplasm are subdivided into

Cytosol and organelle

fluid part of cytoplasm, also called intracellular fluid. It may contain various types of insoluble materials

Cytosol

intracellular structures with specific functions

Organelles

are isolated from the cytosol by phospholipid membranes, just as the plasma membrane isolates the cytosol from the extracellular fluid.

Membranous organelles

are not completely enclosed by membranes, and, in many, all of their parts are in direct contact with the cytosol

Nonmembranous organelles

What are the membranous oraganelles

Peroxisomes


Lysosomes


Golgi apparatus


Endoplasmic reticulum


Mitochondria


Nucleus

What are the nonmembranous oraganelle

Cytoskeleton


Microvilli


Centrioles


Cilia


Ribosomes

STRUCTURE: Vesicles (membranous sacs) containing degradative enzymes.



FUNCTION: Break down fatty acids and organic compounds; neutralize toxic compounds generated in the process

Peroxisome

STRUCTURE: Vesicles containing digestive enzymes.FUNCTION: Break down large organic compounds, damaged organelles, and pathogens (disease-causing agents)

Lysosome

STRUCTURE: Membrane extensions containing microfilaments



FUNCTION: Increase surface area to help absorption of extracellular materials

Microvilli

STRUCTURE: Stacks of flattened membranes (cisternae) containing chambersFUNCTION: Modify and package proteins

Golgi apparatus

STRUCTURE: A nucleoplasm (fluid in the nucleus) containing enzymes, proteins, DNA, and nucleotides surrounded by a double membrane, the nuclear envelope.



FUNCTION: Control metabolism, store and process genetic information, control protein synthesis

Nucleus

STRUCTURE: Network of membranous sheets and channels extending through out the cytoplasm.FUNCTION: Synthesize secretory products; store and transport substances inside the cell

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)

It has no attached ribosomes, synthesizes lipids and carbohydrates

Smooth ER

It has ribosomes bound to the membranes, modifies and packages newly synthesized proteins.

Rough ER

STRUCTURE: Proteins organized in microfilaments (fine filaments) or microtubules slender tubest organuing center that contains a pair of centiñoles



FUNCTION: Strengthen and a support celt move cellular structures and materials

Cytoskeleton

STRUCTURE: Double membrane with inner membrane folds enclosing important metabolic enzymes



FUNCTION: Produce 15 percent of the cell's ATP

Mitochondrion

FUNCTION: Syrsthesize proteinsSTRUCTURE: RNA and proteins; fixed ribosomes bound to rough ER free ribosomes scattered in cytoplasm

Ribosomes

Tissues are classified by

EPITHELIAL TISSUE


CONNECTIVE TISSUE


MUSCLE TISSUE


NEURAL TISSUE

Covers exposed surfaces


Lines internal passageways and chambers


Produces glandular secretions

EPITHELIAL TISSUE


-Fills internal spaces


-Provides structural support


-Stores energy

CONNECTIVE TISSUE

Contracts to produce active movement

MUSCLE TISSUE

Conducts electrical impulses


Carries information

NEURAL TISSUE

Body systems work together (Integration of function)

Hemeostasis

- Vital to integration & homeostasis - Cells communicate with other cells, tissues & organs

Communication and movement across cell membranes

Bones, cartilage, and ligaments (which steady the bones at the joints).



Function:


Provides body support and protection, permits movement and leverage, produces blood cells (hematopoiesis), and stores minerals.

Skeletal system

Skeletal muscles of the body and their tendinous attachments.


FUNCTIONS


Effects body movements, maintains posture, and produces body heat.

Muscular system

Consists of the lymphatic vessels, lymph nodes, and other lymphatic organs.


FUNCTIONS Removes foreign substances from the blood and lymph, combats disease, maintains tissue fluid balance, and absorbs dietary fats from the digestive tract.

Lymphatic system

The body organs concerned with movement of respiratory gases (O2 and CO2) to and from the pulmonary blood (the blood within the lungs).


FUNCTIONS Supplies oxygen to the blood and eliminates carbon dioxide; also helps to regulate acid–base balance.

Respiratory system

The integument (skin) and structures derived from it (hair, nails, and oil sweat glands).


FUNCTIONS Protects the body, regulates body temperature, eliminates wastes, and receives certain stimuli (tactile, temperature, and pain).

Integumentary system

The body organs that render ingested foods absorbable.


FUNCTIONS Mechanically and chemically breaks down foods for cellular use and eliminates undigested wastes.

Digestive system

Brain, spinal cord, nerves, and sensory organs such as the eye and the ear.


FUNCTIONS Detects and responds to changes in internal and external environments, enables reasoning and memory, and regulates body activities.

Nervous system

The hormone- producing glands. • Hypothalamus • Pineal gland • Pituitary gland • Thyroid • Parathyroid • Thymus • Adrenal gland • Pancreas • Ovaries • Testes



FUNCTIONS Controls and integrates body functions via hormones secreted into the bloodstream.

Endocrine system

The heart and the vessels that carry blood or blood constituents (lymph) through the body.



FUNCTIONS Transports respiratory gases, nutrients, wastes, and hormones; protects against disease and fluid loss; helps regulate body temperature and acid–base balance.

Cardiovascular system

The organs that operate to remove wastes from the blood and to eliminate urine from the body.


FUNCTIONS Removes various wastes from the blood; regulates the chemical composition, volume, and electrolyte balance of the blood; helps maintain the acid–base balance of the body.

Urinary system

The body organs that produce, store, and transport reproductive cells (gametes, or sperm and ova).



FUNCTIONS


Reproduce the organism, produce sex hormones.
