Anatomy

study of structure

Form

Physiology

study of function

Know the levels of structural organization and how they fit together. For example, atoms create molecules and cells grouped together are called tissue.


a. Atoms


b. Molecules


c. Macromolecules


d. Organelles


e. ***Cells


f. Tissue:


g. Organ


h. Organ system


i. organism

A) (ex. Hydrogen)


B) b.put two atoms together, ex. H2O


c. ex. Protein, carbohydrates, lipids


d. mitochondria – makes ATP, nucleus


e. basic unit of structure and function(A&P) begins; 70 million cells


f. muscle tissue, skeletal tissue


g. heart since it has a variety of tissues


h. putting organs together


i. Living things

Know and define the 10 characteristics of all human organisms. (MG-RRR-DACAE)


a. Movement: internal;


b. Growth:


c. ****Responsiveness


d. Reproduction:


e. Respiration:


f. Digestion


g. Absorption


h. Circulation


i. Assimilation


j. Excretion

Know and define the 10 characteristics of all human organisms. (MG-RRR-DACAE)


a. internal; heart beating and gross; actual body movement, ex. running


b. increase size


c.changes (react to internal-blood calcium or external - goosebumps) calcium is need for brain function. Heart to beat and for muscles to contract


d. make something new


e. take in oxygen, release carbon


f. break down food (catabolic metabolism)


g. passage of substances through certain membranes


h. movement of substances within the body in body fluids


i. change absorbed substances into chemically different forms (anabolism metabolism)


j. removal of waste

Metabolism:

sum total of chemical reactions occurring in body OR metabolism is the total of all energy transformation

Catabolism

breakdown of organic matter

Anabolism

buildup of organic matter

the steady-state of equilibrium existing in the body and the maintenance of this state. Maintenance of a stable internal environment surrounding cells (i.e. water, food, oxygen, heat and pressure) while factors in the external environment may change. Keeping internal body happy AT RESTING STATE

Homeostasis

set point is the middle, heart rate goes up and down the line never in the middle because will die


i. Pulled above setpoint is a stimulus à Receptors pickup info in the environment à control center {brain} (set point is programed here) à effectors (muscles or glands that do the work) {thermostat ex}

Homeostatic set point;

Homeostatic mechanisms

are those organs/processes acting to maintain homeostasis. These mechanisms are self-regulating feedback systems. Mechanism receives signals (feedback) about changes away from the normal set point and causes reactions that tend to return conditions to normal. Most homeostatic mechanisms are “negative feedback systems” wherein changes from the normal state stimulate responses in the opposite direction; these changes are considered negative.

Body temp too high:

stimulus (body temp rises above normal) à receptors (thermoreceptors send signals to CC) à control center (brain detects deviation from set point and signals effectors à effectors (skin blood vessels dilate and sweat glands secrete) à response (body heath is lost to surroundings, temp drops toward normal)

Body temp too low:

stimulus (body temp drops)àreceptors à CC (sends info to effector organs)à effectors (skin blood vessels constrict and sweat glands remain inactive (goosebumps) OR if body temp continues to drop, CC signals muscles to contract involuntarily (FINISH THIS CHART)

Negative feedback system:

process that moves conditions back towards the normal state; back to normal state

Positive feedback system: Survival mode;

process that moves away from normal state (blood clotting, child birth)

Know what organisms requirement from our environment and why we need those things, such as water, oxygen, etc. (WFOHP)


a. required for metabolic reactions; transports substances; regulate temperature (intracellular & extracellular)


b. provide necessary nutrients; supply raw material for building new living matter; regulate vital chemical reactions


c. need it in order to make ATP


d. byproduct of metabolic reactions; more heat more quicker reactions occur (hot & cold weather)


e. necessary for breathing and blood flow (air pressure, blood pressure)

Know what organisms requirement from our environment and why we need those things, such as water


a. Water:


b. Food:


c. Oxygen:


d. Heat


e. Pressure

Know terms of relative position and the anatomical position


a. Superior:


b. Inferior:


c. Anterior (ventral):


d. Posterior (dorsal):


e. Medial:


f. Lateral:


g. Ipsilateral:


h. Contralateral:


i. Proximal:


j. Distal:

Know terms of relative position and the anatomical position


a. a part is above another part, or closer to the head.


b. a part is below another part, or toward the feet.


c. toward the front.


d. toward the back.


e. a part is closer to an imaginary midline dividing the body or body part into equal left and right halves. (both parts on mid line you cannot use medial or lateral)


f. a part is toward the side with respect to the imaginary midline.


g. pertains to the same side. (right ear and right hip) (if one is on the mid line you cant use it)


h. pertains to the opposite side. (left hip/right hip) (if one is on the mid line you cant use it)


i. a part is closer to the trunk of the body or closer to another specified point of reference than another part. (beneath collarbone to hips, torso) (both on truck cant use proximal/distal)


j. a part is farther from the trunk or farther from another specific point of reference than another part.

Proximal and distal are often used with reference to limbs only, however, proximal and distal can be used with reference to the head.


k. Superficial:


l. Peripheral:


m. Deep:

Proximal and distal are often used with reference to limbs only, however, proximal and distal can be used with reference to the head.


k. situated near the surface.


l. outward or near the surface (Used to describe the location of certain blood vessels and nerves.)


m. inward or more internal.

Know all the names of the three cardinal planes and define how they each divide the body.


a. refers to a lengthwise cut that divides the body into left and right portions. Midsagittal is used only when referring to the entire body.


b. refers to a section that divides the body into anterior and posterior portions.


c. refers to a section that divides the body into superior and inferior portions.

Know all the names of the three cardinal planes and define how they each divide the body.
