Organization of Body?

Back 12

cells -> tissues -> organs -> organ systems -> body

cells and tissues

Front 14

Gross anatomy includes what?

Back 14

organs, organ systems, and body

collection of organs that perform related functions

Front 16

12 Systems?

Back 16

1. Circulatory
2. Nervous
3. Reproductive
4. Endocrine
5. Skeletal
6. Muscular
7. Lymphatic
8. Respiratory
9. Digestive
10. Urinary
11. Integumentary
12. Articular

Front 17

Circulatory Structure & Function

Back 17

S= heart & blood vessels
F= transport nutrients and O2 to cells, remove waste molecules that are excreted

Front 18

Lymphatic Structure & Function

Back 18

S= Lymphatic vessels, nodes, supporting lymphocytes, lymphoid organs
F= protects body from disease by purifying fluid, involves white blood cells that produce antibodies

Front 19

Respiratory Structure & Function

Back 19

S= trachea, bronchi, lungs, other resp. passageways
F= brings O2 into lungs, takes CO2 out

Front 20

Digestive Structure & Function

Back 20

S= mouth, esophagus, stomach, small & large intestine, teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladders, pancreas- MESS SILITT SLGP
F= recieves food and digests it into nutrient molecules -> enter cells

Front 21

Urinary Structure & Function

Back 21

S=kidneys, ureter, bladder, urethra KUDU
F= rids body of nitrogenous wastes & helps regulate fluid level and chemical content of blood

Front 22

Integumentary Structure & Function

Back 22

S= skin, hair, nails, sebaceous glands, sweat glands
F= provides support and protects underlying tissues, helps regulate body temperature, contains receptors

Front 23

Skeletal Structure & Function

Back 23

S= bones
F= attachment for muscles, gives form and structure

Front 24

Muscular Structure & Function

Back 24

S= muscles and tendons
F= movement

Front 25

Articular Structure & Function

Back 25

S= joints
F= movement

Front 26

Nervous Structure & Function

Back 26

S= brain, spinal cord, nerves
F= conduct nerve impulses to muscles and glands, receive impulses

Front 27

Endocrine Structure & Function

Back 27

S= hormones
F= secrete chemicals that serve as messengers btw body parts, maintain proper functioning of reproductive organs

Front 28

Reproductive Structure & Function

Back 28

S= testes, other glands, penis, ovaries, oviducts, uterus, vagina, external genitalia
F= allows reproduction

Front 29
