Front 25

Regional Terms - what is the definition of this? What are the two fundamental divisions?

Back 25

Terms used to designate specific areas within the major body divisions. The two fundamental divisions are Axial and Appendicular

Front 26

Axial

Back 26

that which makes up the main axis of our body. i.e. the head, neck and trunk.

Front 27

Appendicular

Back 27

The appendages or limbs which are attached to the bodies axis.

Front 28

Body Planes

Back 28

for anatomical studies, how the body is sectioned along a flat surface (plane)

Front 29

Sagittal plane

Back 29

(Arrow) a vertical plane that divides the body into right and left parts.

Front 30

Median Plane

Back 30

A sagittal plane that lies exactly in the midline

Front 31

Parasaggital planes

Back 31

Saggital planes that are offset from the midline (from para =near)

Front 32

Frontal Planes, Coronal Plane

Back 32

Front and back division. Frontal planes are like sagittal planes because they lie vertically, but Frontal planes divide the body into anterior and Posterior parts.

Front 33

Transverse or horizontal plane

Back 33

a plane that runs horizontally from right to left and divides the body into superior and inferior parts. Can be at any level from head to foot. *** Also called a cross section

Front 34

Oblique Sections

Back 34

Cuts made diagonally between the horizontal and vertical planes. Seldom used.

Front 35

Dorsal Body Cavity

Back 35

cavity that protects the fragile nervous system organs. 2 Subdivisions - A.) Cranial Cavity and B.) Vertebral or Spinal Cavitiy

Front 36

Cranial Cavity

Back 36

cavity that encases the skull

Front 37

Vertebral Cavity

Back 37

Also known as the spinal cavity. cavity that encloses the spinal cord. runs within the vertebral column.

Front 38

Ventral Body Cavity

Back 38

Body cavity which is anterior to the dorsal cavity and larger than the dorsal cavity. 2 Subdivisions - A.) thoracic Cavity B.) abdominopelvic cavity

Front 39

Thoracic Cavity

Back 39

cavity surrounded by ribs and muscles of the chest. Divided into
a.) pleural cavity (lateral)
b.) mediastinum (medial)

Front 40

Mediastinum

Back 40

Medial cavity within the thoracic cavity that contains the pericardial cavity, which encloses the heart. It also surrounds the remaining thoracic organs (esophagus, trachea and others)

Front 41

Abdominopelvic CAvity

Back 41

Inferior to the thoracic cavity. Seperated by the diaphram. 2 parts
a.) abdominal cavity - stomach, intestines, spleen, liver and other organs
b.) pelvic cavity - bladder, some reporductive organs, and the rectum

Front 42

Serosa

Back 42

thin, double layer membrane covering the walls of the ventral cavity and the outer surfaces of the organs it contains

Front 43

Parietal serosa

Back 43

part of the membrane lining the cavity walls.
(parie = wall)

Front 44

Front 46

What are the three principles of the cell theory

Back 46

1.) The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of living organisms
2.) The activity of an organism depends on both the individual and the collective activities of its cells
3.) Continuity of life has a cellular basis

Front 47

Plasma Membrane

Back 47

Also known as the cell membrane. Enclosed the cell and seperates the intracellular fluids within the cells from the extracellular fluids outside the cell.

Front 48

What is the plasma membrane composed of?

Back 48

A double layer, or bilayer, of lipid molecules with protein molecules dispersed in it. Composed of Phosopholipids and glycolipids.
