Body Sections |
Epigastric-Hypochondrial Umbilical- Lumbar Hypogastric- Illiac |
|
|
Ceolomic Cavities |
Result of an embryological infolding that creates a space within the body. Typically lined with serous membrane that has 2 layers: Simple Squamous Epithealial & connective tissue basement membrane. |
|
|
Retroperitoneal |
A cavity located behind the peritoneal and all organs not incased in Dorsal or Ventral Cavities are considered peritoneal. |
|
|
Parital Peritoneum |
A serous membrane that lines the cavity. |
|
|
Visceral Peritoneum |
A serous membrane that covers the organs. |
|
|
Serous Membrane |
The lining of a coelom that has two layers and secretes lubricating serous fluid. |
|
|
Exocrine Glands |
A gland that secretes outside the body. |
|
|
Functional Exocrine Glands |
Holocrine, Merocrine, Apocrine |
|
|
Holocrine Gland |
Secretory product is within cell and cell dies and disenigrates releasing the product into duct. Example: Oil Gland in Skin. |
|
|
Merocrine Gland |
Continuously form and discharge secretion. Example: Salivary Glands |
|
|
Apocrine Gland |
Accumulates secretion at outer or apical end of cell and pinches off to release secretion. Example: Mammary Gland. |
|
|
Small Intestine |
Divided into three regions, Duodenum, Jejunum, Illium. |
|
|
Large Intestine |
Cecum, Appendix |

|
Integumentary System |
Protects the body, regulates temp, eliminates waste. Skin, hair, nails, sweat and oil glands, sensory organs of touch. |
|
|
Skeletal System |
Supports and protects body, provides leverage for muscles, produces blood cells and stores minerals. Bones, Cartilidge, Tendons, Ligaments, Joints. |
|
|
Muscular System |
Provides movement. Skeletal, Visceral and Cardiac muscles. |
|
|
Cardiovascular System |
Distribute oxygen and nutrients, collects cellular waste, maintains pH, protects against disease, regulates temp. Blood, Heart, Blood Vessels. |
|
|
Lymphatic System |
Returns fluids and proteins to blood, filters particles from blood, generates white blood cells. Lymph, Lymph nodes, lymph vessels, and glands. |
|
|
Respiratory System |
Supplies oxygen and removes CO2 and regulates pH. Nose, Pharynx, Trachea, Bronchi, Lungs. |
|
|
Nervous System |
Senses changes in external and internal environment. Brain, Spinal Cord, Nerves, Sense Organs. |
|
|
Endocrine System |
Maintains homeostasis through hormones. Pituitary, Thyroid, Parathyroid, adrenal, pineal glands, ovaries, testies, pancreas. |
|
|
Digestive System |
Breaks down food. Mouth, Esophogus, stomach, intestines, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. |
|
|
Urinary System |
Regulate chemical composition of blood including urea, electrolytes, fluid volume, and pH balance. Kidneys, Ureters, Bladder, Urethra. |
|
|
Reproductive System |
Make more humans. The usual. |
|
|
Supporting Connective Tissue |
Fibrous matrix of collangeous, elastic fibers secreted by fibroblasts. Collagenous Fibers, Reticular Fibers, Elastic Fibers. |
|
|
Goblet Cells |
Produce mucus and cilia move from trachea to mouth. |
|
|
Homeostasis |
Maintainence of a constant internal environment despite external environmental changes. |
|
|
Chemical Messengers |
Intracellular: Hormones, Paracrines Extracellular: Calcium, Cyclic AMP |
|
|
Cyclic AMP |
Formed by ATP by an enzyme, then increases the rate of cytoplasmic translation. |
|
|
Calcium |
Penetrates cell membranes, bind with receptor proteins to generate a complex which penetrates the nucleus and binds to DNA. This induces the transcribes relevant DNA to generate enzymes. |
