Branches of anatomy

Gross anatomy(body structure) microscopic anatomy(tissue study) surface anatomy (all organs studied together)

Anatomical terminology

Based on ancient Greek or Latin, provides standard nomenclature worldwide

Chemical level

Atoms form molecules

Cellular level

Cells an their functional subunits

Tissue level

Group of cells preforming a common function

Organ level

Discrete structure made up of more than one tissue

Organ system

Organs working together for common purpose

Organism level

Result of all simpler levels working in Union

Organism

Human

Intugumentary system

External body covering, protects deeper tissue from injury, sunthesizes vitamin D

Skeletal system

Protects and supports body organs, provides framework for muscles, blood cells form with in bone

Muscular system

Allows manipulation of environment, Locomotion, facial expressions, maintains posture,produces Heat

Nervous system

Fast acting control system responds to internal and external changes

Endocrine system

Glands secrete hormones that regulate growth reproduction and nutrition use

Cardiovascular system

Blood vessels transport blood blood carries oxygen and carbon dioxide carries nutrients and waste

Lymphatic system/immunity

Picks up excess fluids leaked from blood vessels mounts attacks against foreign objects

Respiratory system

Keeps blood supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide

Digestive system

Breaks down food into smaller units and indigestible foodstuffs eliminated as feces

Uranary system

Eliminates nitrogenous wastes regulates water electrolyte and acid-base balance

Reproductive systems

Overall function is to produce offspring testes produce sperm & male sex hormone ovaries produce eggs and female sex hormone

Anatomical position

Visual refrence point

Planes

Frontal- dividing front and back


Median-dividing left and right


Transverse- dividing upper and lower

Cell main components

Plasma membrain- outer boundary


Cytolasm- contains most organelles


Nucleus-controls cellular activities

3

Plasma membrain

Outer boundary structure of membrane fluid mosaic model provides barrier against substance outside cell determines which substance enters or leaves the circle

Cytoplasm

Contains most organelles

Nucleus

Control cell activity

Membrain transport

Simple diffusion-tendency of molecules to move down their concentration gradient


Osmosis- diffusion of molecules across membrain


Intergral proteins- use ATP as every source

Facilitates diffusion

Movement of molecules down their concentration gradient through an integral protein

Active transport

Moves molecules across the plasma membrane against their concentration gradient

Endocytes

mechanisms by which particles enter cells phagocytosis- cell eating pinocytosis-cell drinking

Exocytosis

Mechanism that moves substances out of the cell

Cytoplasm

Life internal to plasma membrane consists of centrioles organelles and inclusions

Cytosol

Consist of water ion and enzymes

Ribosomes

Constructed of proteins and ribosomal RNA not surrounded by a membrane

Endoplasmic reticulum

Network within the cytoplasm

Rough ER

Ribosomes stud the external surface

Smooth ER

Tubules in a branching Network

Golgi apparatus

Stack of three to 10 disk shaped envelopes (UPS)

Lysosomes

Membrane wall sacs containing digestive enzymes digests unwanted substances

Peroxisomes

Membrain walled sacks of oxidase enzymes the trash removal system

Mitochondria

Generates most of the cells energy, most complex organelles powerhouse

Stages of mitosis prophase

Prophase first and longest stage of mitosis-cromatin threads condense onto chromosomes

Metaphase

Second stage, chromosomes Custer at the middle of the cell centrosomes are aligned along the Equator

Anaphase

Chromosomes are pulled apart

Telophase

Cells pull apart

Cytokinesis

Completes the division of the cell into 2 daughter cells

Developmental aspects of cells

Aging genetic theory proposes that aging is programmed by genes

Tissue

Cells that work together to preform a common function

4 basic types of tissue

Epithelial-Covering


Connective- support


Muscle- support


Nervous- control

Characteristics of epithelial tissue

Cellularity-cells separated by minimal extracellular material


Specialized contacts- cells joined by special junctions


Polarity, supported by conection tissue, avascular, regeneration

Endocrine glands

Ductless glands that secrete into surrounding tissue

Exocrine glands

Ducts cary products to epithelial surface

Cell junction


Tight junction-close off intercellular space


Adhesive belt junction- anchoring junction


Desmosomes-main junctions for binding cells together


Gap junctions- passageways between two adjacent cells

Basal lamina

Acts as a selective filter determining which molecules from capillaries and enter the epatheliam

Apical surface features

Microvilli fingerlike extensions of the plasma membrane

Connective tissue types

Cartalage, cinnective tissue proper, bone,

Intugumentary system

Skin

Hypodermis

Lyes deep in the dermis

Skin color

Melanin(most important made from tyrosine), carotene(made from carrots) hemoglobin(allows blood to show through, Caucasian skin)

Hair layers

Three layers medulla-central core cortex- surrounds medulla cuticle- outer layer

Nails

Free edge, body, root, nailfold, cuticle (eponychium)

Appendage

Hair follicles, hair bulb, root, arrestor pili muscle (hair standing up)

Sebaceous glands

Secrete sebum (oils) -collects dirt softens and lubricates hair and skin

Sweat glands

All over body, blood filtrate, 99% water with some salt

Burns

First-epadermis second-upper part of dermis third-full thickness of skin

Skin cancers

Basal cell carcinoma- not common squamous cell carcinoma-arises from keratinocytes of stratum spinosum Melanoma-most dangerous

As we age so does akin

4 months formed 5-6 months covered in downy hairs middle to old age, less elastic, skin inflammation become more common

Charictoristics of cartalage

Resilient tissue, consists promarily of water

Location of cartalage

Ear, epiglottis, larynx, trachea, nose

Types

Hyaline-abundant, provides support throught flexability


Elastic- contains many elastic fibers


Fibro cartilage- resists strong compression

Growth

Adaposal growth-centroblasts in surrounding perichondrium produce new cartalage


Interstitial growth- divide and secrete new matrix


Stops growing when skeleteon does
