In what way does physiology depend on anatomy?

Physiology depends on anotomy because the function will reflect the form. If physiology is good then then anotomy structure will work well (look and function)

Would you be study in anotomy or physiology if you investigated how muscles shorten? If you explored the location of the lungs in the body?

Investigating how the muscles shorten would be part of physiology.


Exploring the location of lungs in the body would be part of anatomy.

What is anatomy?


Anatomy is the body part


What is physiology

Physiology is how the body part function.

How is physiology and anatomy related?

They are complimentary branches because anatomy depends on the physiology.


Form = function

All the structures in a particular region of the body, like a leg or abdomen

What is systemic anatomy?

It is the study of system with system like the heart and the vessels.

What is surface anatomy ?


The study of internal structure as they relate to the overlying skin surface. Like when the nurse looks for the pulse in a vein and then draws out the blood.

What is microscopic anatomy?

The structure that are to small to be seen with the naked eye.

What are the subdivision of microscopic anatomy?


•cytology


•histology

What is the principle of complimentary structure?

The principle of complementary stated that form depends on structure which is that anatomy depends on physiology.


So what a structure can do depends on its specific form.


Function =Structure

The levels of Structural Organization

What level of structural organization is typical of a cytologists field of study?

Bones and cartilage are part of the skeletal system.


The nasal, cavity,lungs and trachea are part of the respiratory system organs

What seperates living beings from non living objects?

Living beings are able to maintain their boundaries. Movements, responsive, digestion,metabolism,excretion,reproduction,growth. While non living can have a few but not all of them.

What name is given to all chemical reaction that occur within body cells?

Metabolism

Why is it neccesary to be in a pressurized cabin when flying 30,000 ft.

The air is thin and gas exchange may be inadequate to support cellular metabolism

What are the functional characteristics neccesary to maintain life in humans.?

The functional characteristics necessary to maintain life in humans.


•Maintain boundaries


•Movement


•responsiveness


•digestion


•metabolism


•excretion


•reproductive


• growth.


What is the function of maintaining boundaries?

Internal environments remain distinct from external environments.


-all body cells are surrounded by selectively permeable membrane.


-The body as a whole is enclosed by the integumentary system or skin

What does the integumentary system do?

Protect our internal organs from drying out. Bacteria. Damaging effects of heat. Sunlight. And unbelievable number of chemical in external environment.

What does the movement function do ?

Activities by the muscular systems. And the skeletal system the framework that the muscle pull on as they work.


•blood, foodstuff,and urine propelled through internal organs of the cardiovascular, digestive, urinary system.

What is contractility?


The muscle cells ability to move by shortening

What does the responsiveness function do?

The responsiveness function aka excitability. Is the ability to sense the changes in the environments and respond to them.


•the nervous system is most involved in responsiveness.

What does the digestion function do?


The digestion function breaks down the the ingested foodstuffs to simple molecules that can be absorbed into the blood.


Then the nutrient rich blood distributed to all body cells by the cardiovascular system.

What does the metabolism function do ?

Includes all the chemical reactions that occur within body cells. Breaking down substances into simple building blocks. To synthesize more complex cellular structures.


- depends on the digestive and respiratory system to make nutrients and oxygen available to the blood.


-and on the cardiovascular system to distribute them through out the body.


•regulated by hormones secreted on the endocrine system glands.

What is the excretion function do?

Removes the wastes, removes non useful substances produce during digestion and metabolism.


•depends on the digestive system and urinary system


Digestive system.

Rids the body of indigesyive food

Urinary system

Dispose of nitrogen containing metabolic wastes . urea. And urine.


And carbon dioxide by the cellular respiration.

What does the reproduction function do?

Cellular organism level


• reproductive system directly responsible for offspring


•regulated by hormones on the endocrine system

What does the growth function do?

Increase the size of body parts or organism as a whole . increase number of cells.

What are the survival needs of the body?

Nutrients


Oxygen


Water


Temp


Pressure

Why do we need nutrients?

Contain the chemical substances used for energy and cell building


*carbohydrates are major part of energy fuel for body cells.


Why do we need oxygen?


20% of our air is oxygen


Respiratory and cardiovascular make oxygen available to blood and body cells.

Why do we need water?

50- 60 % body weight is water


-we get it form ingested food or liquids


- loose it through evaporation from the lungs and skin and body excretions.


Why is normal body temperatures needed.?

If it drops to less than 98. 6 metabolic reactions become slower .if its too high proteins loose their shape.


Muscular system generates most of the heat.

Why is appropriate atmospheric pressure necessary.


Breathing and gas changes in lungs depends on appropriate atmospheric pressure.


If your too high up the air is thinner harder to breahe

What process allows us to adjust to either extreme heat or extreme cold.

The negative feedback mechanism allows us to adjust o either extreme hot or extreme cold.

When we being to get dehydrated . we usually get thirsty which causes us to drink fluids . is thirst part of the negative or a positive feedback control?

It is part of the negative feedback mevhanish as it makes us thirsty that cause us to drink which end the thirst stimulus .

Why is the control system shown in this figure called a positive feedback mechanism?. What event ends it?

It is positive because it enhance the change . the event ends when the plug is formed.

What is homeostasis

It is the process of keeping the balance in the body so everything functions well.

Negative feedback mechanism

Out put shuts off the oeigal stimuli or reduces its intensity .


(Like the furnace)


All negative feedback mechanism goal is to : prevent severe changes within the body.

Positive feedback mechanism

Enhances original stimuli so its accelerated . proceed in the same direction as initial change.


"Cascades"


Blood clots. And birth contractions.


Describe the relationship between homeostatic imbalance a and disease?

When homeostasis decrease the negative feed back mechanism does too sometimes causing destructive positive feed back mechanism to take over .


Heart failure.


Happens as we age.

Homeostatic control system

Figure

What is the anatomical position? Why is it important?


The anatomical position is at attention just the palms face forward. It is important because it is regards to this position always.

It could be appendicitis

Of the uterus , small intestines . spinal cord. And heart which one is in the dorsal cavity?

Spinal cord is in the dorsal cavity

When you rub your cold hands together the friction between them results in heat that warms your hands . why doesn't warming friction happen during the movement of the heart . lungs and digestive organs?

Because the serous fluid seperates the organs so the won't create friction. Serous allows the serous membranes to glide easily over one another
