anatomy
|
the study of the sructure of an organism and the relationship of its parts
|
|
physiology
|
how the parts work
|
|
pathology
|
the study f disease
|
|
anatomical position
|
the body is standing with arms at both sides with palms front. The head and feet also point forward (AKA supine)
|
|
3 planes or body sections
|
*sagital- divides body into right and left sides
*Frontal- divides the body into anterior and posterior (front and back) *Mid-sagital- divides the body into two equal halves |
|
2 major body cavities and their sub divisions and an organ in each
|
*ventral- (front)
-thoracic cavity: mediastinum(heart), right and left pleural (lungs) -Abdomino-pelvic cavity: digestive organs,bladder, and female reproductive organs *Dorsal cavity- (back) -cranial cavity: brain -spinal cavity: spinal cord |
|
2 body regions
|
*Axial: head, neck, and trunk
*Appendicular: upper and lower extremities |
|
8 warning signs of cancer
|
1- a sore that does not heal
2- a change in a wort or a mole 3- unusual bleeding 4- chronic hoarseness or cough 5- chronic indigestion 6-change in bladder or bowel habits 7- alump or thickening in tissue 8- bone pain that wakes you up at night |
|
beign and malignant tumors (compare)
|
benign- slow growth, encapsulation, expand but not spread, well differinated, morality low.
malignant- cancer, rapid growth, non-encapsulation, infultrate surrounding tissue, metastaiszes, undiffereniated, morality rate high |
|
2 major layers of skin
|
*Epidermis- thin top layer
(Sublayers)-stratum corneum: toughest -stratum lucidum: in palms -stratum granulosum -stratum spinosum -stratum basale-contains melenocytes *Dermis- thick deeper layer (sublayers) -superficial region: papillary(loose and contains papillae that bond the layers) -deep thicker region: Recticular (dense and has collegen, elastic and recticular fibers that give the dermis its strength, elasticity, and extensibility) |
|
skin appendages
|
*HAIR: hair folicle- live part
hair shaft- visible part (dead) hair root- part of hair not seen *NAILS: nail body- visible part nail bed- under body *GLANDS: -sudoriferous-eccrine(thin watery) and apocrine (thick, milky,begins in young age, bacteria waste=BO -Sebaceous:secrets subum, natures skin cream, keeps skin soft, increses5X in youth,attached to every hair folicle *RECEPTORS:1-hair folicle endings- hair displacement 2-Ruffini endings- pressure on skin 3-Krauses end bulb- pressure on lips, tongue, and genitals 4-Pacinan corpuscle-vibration(150-300 hz range) 5-Meissners corpuscle- vibration(20-40 hz range) 6-free nerve endings- mechanical, thermal, and noxious pain |
|
MRSA (methasillian resistant mengacochal meningitus)
|
(INFECTION)
*a strain of staph that devoloped in hospitals from overuse of anti-biotic materials. *signs- small red papules that turn into deep absecesses, can remain in the skin. But, can travel to joints,bones,bloo etc. Can be life threatening. *risk factors-hospital/nursing -recent antiibiotic therapy -invasive devices -young age -contact sports -immunosupressed -sharing razors -prison innmates *treatment: vancomycin *prevention: good hygine |
|
2 auto immune disorders
|
(auto immune)Atopic dermatitus
*chronic inflamation of the skin *signs- itching red rash with papules that ooze. Most often apear onn extremities also on eyes/lids *risk- family history -stress and emotion(will not cause it) *treatments:reduce stress, over the counter meds like anti-itch cream and omega 3's (PSORASIS)-T-lymphacytes infiltrate the skin causing rapid motility of epidermal cells to the surface *signs-red patches of skin covered in scales(plaque). Dry cracked skin with bleeding *risks- genetics,HIV,stress,smoking,obesity *treatment- symptomatic(toipical and oral meds, vitamin D,sunlight(small amounts),stress reduction |
|
3 common skin cancers compare and contrast
|
BASAL CELL CARCINOMA *the most common skin cancer,rarely fatal,can cause tissue damage.
*signs- a white/waxy bump with blood vesels in it.(face) *risks- fair skin,family history,male,immune supressing drugs *treatment- surgery,freezing,laser,topical drugs(Tazorac-used for acne) SQUAMUS CELL CARCINOMA slow growing,from epidermis. Can matastisize,but rarely.Faster than Basel cell. *signs- small redish bumps/patches,sore tht does not heal *treatment- smae as Basal cell MALIGNANT MELONOMA *aggressive malignancy,2-4% of skin cancers but 99% deadly New cases this year-60,000 Deaths- 8,000 *signs- mole that meets one or more of the ABCDE *treatment:surgery, chemo,radiation |
|
a) functions of a skeltal system
b)skeletal system sub-divided c)name them all |
A) 1.support-framework of the body
2.protection- protect structures within them 3.movement- muscles are anchored to bones 4.storage- for many inportant minerals.(calcium, iron, magniseum, and phospherous). 5.hemopoiesis- red bone marrow B)and C) Axial skeleton:A.Skull=cranium,face, middle ear *Cranium -frontal -parietal -occipital -temporal -occipital temporal -sphenoid -ethmoid *Facial -nasal -maxilary -zygomatic -mandible -lacrimal -palatine -inferior concha -vomer *Middle ear: -Malleus -Incus -stapes *Spinal column: -servical spine=(c1-c7)C1=Atlas, C2=Axis -Thoracic spine:(t1-t12) -lumbar spine(L1-L5) -sacrum -coccyx *Thorax: -ribs:7 true ribs:3 false ribs,2 floating ribs b.sternum c.hyoid *Apendicular skeleton a.shoulder girdle:scapula and clavicle b.humerous c.radius d.ulna e.8 carpals-wrist(pisiform,tirquetral,hammate,capitate,trapazoid, trapeizum,scaphoid,lunnate) f.5 metacarpals *Lower extremity: a.pelvic girdle-(ilium,ischium,pubic) b.femur c.tibia d.fibula-small bone e.7 tarsals f.5 metatarsals g.14 phalanges |

4 major tissue types and their sub-types
|
*Epithelial
-simple squamus: alveoli of lung -stratified squamus: skin -simple columnar:lining of stomach;intestines(contains goblet cells that produce mucus) -Transitional:areas of the body subject to stretching -Psuedostratified:trachea -Glandular:cuboidal, for the glands a)Exocrine gland- into a duct(salvary gland) b)endocrine gland-into the bloodstream(thyroid gland) *Connective tissue -Areolar:the most widely distributive of all conn. tissue types, gives shape to internal organs(matrix:soft/sticky) -Adipose:Fat, large storage areas within cells.(matrix:soft/oily) -Fibrous connective:very strong white collegen fibers, makes up the tendons and ligaments.(matrix:hard/leathery) -Bone:highly special, support and protection, storage for minerals.(matrix:hard/light) -Cartilage:strong, flexible types: a)fibro-the hardest(spine discs) b)hyaline-flexible (joints) c)elastic-soft and supple(pinna of the ear) -Blood:(unusual)contains WBC's(protective) and RBC's (transport), and platelets(clotting) -Hemopoietic(blood producing): formation of red & white blood cells.(matrix:soft/granular)(spleen,tonsils) *MUscle tissue -skeletal:(striated)the most abundant>voluntary>biceps brachii -cardiac:heart muscle>involuntary -smooth:(visceral)walls of blood vescels,gastrotintestional & respiratory tracts>invountary>movement of food though digestive tract AKA(peristalsis) *Nervous tissue- communication of body structures and control of body functions (nerve cell=neuron) -neuroglilla:holds neuros together, connective and supporting cells of th enervous system. |
