47 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
Anatomical Position
Head, gaze of eyes, toes – directly anteriorly (forward)
Arms to side – palms anteriorly (forward)
Lower legs close together, feet parallel, toes directed anteriorly
Regardless of posture or position
Saggital Plane
Median, split into left and right side
also called anteroposterior
Coronal Plane
Frontal plane
Splits into anterior and posterior
Transverse Plane
horizontal
Splits into superior and inferior
Superficial
Describes position relative to surface
Opposite: Deep
Lateral
farther from medial plane
Opposite: Medial
Internal
Nearer to center
Opposite: External
Dorsal
aka Posterior
Back surface of body
Opposite: Anterior (Ventral)
Rostral
Decribe the brain, nearer anterior part of head
Inferior
Near to sole of foot
Opposite: Superior
Caudal
Toward tail region
Opposite: Cranial/Cephal
Proximal
Near to the attachment of limb or central aspect of linear structure
Opposite: Distal
Unilateral
Occurring on one side
Bilateral
having left and right member
Ipsilateral
occuring at the same side
contralateral
Occurring on opposite sides
Flexion
decreasing angle
Opposite: Extension
Hyperextension
Beyond normal limit
Dorsiflexion
Brining toes toward legs
Opposite: Plantarflexion
Adduction
Toward median plane
Opposite: Abduction
Always in the frontal plane
Circumduction
distal end circular movement
-one end is fixed the other moving in a circle
rotation
Revolving around longitudinal axis
Medial/internal rotation
Brings anterior surface closer to median plane (Shoulder moving towards front)
Lateral/external rotation
Takes anterior surface away from median (Shoulder moving towards back)
Pronation
Palm of hand faces posteriorly
Opposite: Supination
Supination
dorsum of hand faces posteriorly
Elevation
movement superiorly
Opposite: Depression
Eversion
Movement of sole away from median plane
Opposite: Inversion
Opposition
Movement of thumb toward another digit
Opposite: Reposition
Reposition
movement from opposition back to anatomical position
Protrusion
Forward of chin/lips/tongue
Opposite: Retrusion
Protraction
anterior movement of shoulder
Multicolored flat lesion
most common cancer
Basal Cell carcinoma
8-10 cells thick, Langerhans' cells scattered throughout, some kertinocytes continue to divide,
Stratum spinosum
Squamous cell carcinoma originates in these keratinocytes
Stratum spinosum
Appears as crusted or scaly patches, slow-growing malignant tumor frequently found in lungs, skin, but also occurring in anus, cervix, larynx, nose and bladder
Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Langer lines
Tension lines provided by fiber direction. If you cute with the fibers is closes easier than agains
Name actions that occur in:
Medial/Sagittal
Flexion/Extension
Protrusion/Retrusion
Name actions that occur in Frontal
Adduction/Abduction
Elevation/Depression
Inversion/Eversion
Name actions that occur in Transverse
Internal/External Rotation
Classification of burns
1st: limited to epidermis, cells quickly replaced by basal layer

2nd: nerve ending damaged, most painful

3rd: entire dermis, epidermis, possible muscle, area is numb bc sensory endings are destroyed
4 levels of protein structure
Primary: AA joined by peptide bonds

Secondary: Hydrogen bonded amino hydrogen of one amino acid and carboxyl oxygen of another, Common Structures: alpha helixes and beta pleated sheets

Tertiary: formation of bends and loops in a single peptide chain between R groups

Quarternary: formation of proteins with more than one polypeptide chain
Structure of nucleotide and amino acid
Nucleotide: 5-carbon CHO (ribose and deoxyribose), base containing carbon-nitrogen ring (pyrimidines and purines) and a phosphate group

AA: amino group, R group and carboxyl group
4 categories of cells and function
Muscle: contraction, generation of force

Nerve: initiate, transmit electrical impulses

Epithelial: barrier between body and external environment; exchange

Connective Tissue: connect, anchor, support
Exocrine and Endocrine glands
Exocrine: ducts leading to external environment

Endocrine: ductless and secrete hormones into blood
Mechanisms of exchange for lungs, GI, and Kidneys
Lungs: gas diffusion, gas solubility and transport

GI: absorption and secretion

Kidneys: filtration, reabsorption and secretion
Metabolic reactions:

A-B + H2O → A-OH + H-B

A + Pi → A-P

A-OH + H-B → A-B + H2O

A-P → A + Pi

HA-BH → A=B + 2H

A=B + 2H → HA-BH
