Anatomy

Back 1

The study of the structure and relationships between body parts.

The study of structures of living things, so it's the branch of science that describes what body parts like your fingers, mouth, nose, heart, and lungs look like.

Hint 1

Front 17

Sagittal Plane (median plane)

Back 17

Divides the body vertically down the middle into left and right parts.

Front 18

Parasagittal plane

Back 18

A parasagittal plane is any plane that divides the body into left and right portions, parallel to the sagittal plane, but not directly in the midline. Thus a parasagittal plane divides the body into unequal left and right portions, but remains parallel to the median or sagittal suture.

Front 31

Neurotransmitters

Back 31

Neurotransmitters are often referred to as the body’s chemical messengers. They are the molecules used by the nervous system to transmit messages between neurons, or from neurons to muscles.Communication between two neurons happens in the synaptic cleft (the small gap

between the synapses of neurons). Here, electrical signals that have travelled along the axon are briefly converted into chemical ones through the release of neurotransmitters, causing a specific response in the receiving neuron.A neurotransmitter influences a neuron in one of three ways: excitatory, inhibitory or modulatory.

Front 32

Glial Cells

Back 32

Glia, also called glial cells or neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells in the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system. They maintain homeostasis, form myelin, and provide support and protection for neurons.

Front 36

Hormones

Back 36

Hormones are special chemical messengers in the body that are created in the endocrine glands. These messengers control most major bodily functions, from simple basic needs like hunger to complex systems like reproduction, and even the emotions and mood.
