"The study of structure and function of the body"

Ana means "apart" Tomy means "to cut" The scientific discipline that investigates the STRUCTURE of the body Systemic Anatomy- by SYSTEM. Regional Anatomy- by AREAS. Surface Anatomy- external features Anatomical Imaging- involves the use of X-Ray, MRI, Ultrasound, etc.

ANATOMY

The scientific discipline that deals with the processes or FUNCTIONS of living things

PHYSIOLOGY

To understand and predict the body's responses to stimuli To understand how the body part works

The Major Goals of Physiology

Structural and Function Organizational of the Body

CHEMICAL LEVEL

simplest level of the structural ladder includes atoms and molecules Ex: Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) & Glucose basic structural and functional units of an organism that are composed of chemical. CYTOLOGY- study of the microscopic appearance of cell Ex: Muscle Cell, Nerve Cell, Epithelial Cell

  1. CELLULAR LEVEL

group of cell that perform the same function HISTOLOGY- study of tissues

4 TYPES OF TISSUE

  1. Epithelial Tissue- covers body surface; lines hollow organs and cavities and forms glands. 2. Connective Tissue- connects, supports and protects body organs while distributing blood vessels to other tissue 3. Muscle Tissue- contracts to make body part move and generates heat 4. Nervous Tissue- carries information through nerve impulses

  2. TISSUE LEVEL

Created by: Johmel De Ocampo

ANATOMY and PHYSIOLOGY

composed of two or more tissues that perform the sam function Ex: Stomach, Heart, Brain, Skin, Bones, Lungs PERISTALSIS- movement of gastrointestinal organs consists of related organs with a common function Ex: Digestive System- breaks down and absorbs food mouth, salivary gland, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small inestine, large intestine, gallbladder, liver and pancreas.

  1. ORGAN LEVEL

  2. SYSTEM LEVEL

any living thing considered as a whole whether composed of one cell such as bacterium, or of trillion of cells, such as human.

  1. ORGANISM LEVEL

Anatomy and Physiology of Body Systems

generates action potentials (nerve impulses) to regulate body activities detecs changes in body's internal and external environments, interpret changes and respond. achieves physical and chemical breakdown of food absorb nutrients eliminates solid wastes

NERVOUS SYSTEM

DIGESTIVE SYSTEM

heart pumps blood through vessels blood carries oxygen and nutrients to cells and carbon dioxide and wastes leps regulate acid-base balance, temperature and water content of body fluid transferred oxygen and carbon dioxide helps regulate acid-base balance of body fluids air flowing out of lungs through vocal vocal cords produces sound.

ANATOMY and PHYSIOLOGY

gonads produce gametes (sperm or oocyte) that unite to form a new organism gonads also releases hormone that regulate reproduction and other body processes transport and store gametes produce, store and eliminate wastes eliminate wastes and regulates volume and chemical composition of blood maintain body's mineral balance helps regulate production of red blood cells ERYTHROPOETIN returns proteins and fluid to blood carries lipids from gastrointestinal tract to blood contains sites of maturation and poliferation of B cells and T cells that protect against disease-causing microbes

REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

URINARY SYSTEM

LYMPHATIC SYSTEM

supports and protects body provides surface area for muscle attachment aids body movements houses cells that produce blood cells (flat bones) store minerals and lipids (fats) (long bones) participates in body movements maintain posture produce heat protects body regulate body temperature eliminates some wastes helps make vitamin D detects sensation such as touch, pain, warmth, and cold store fat and provides insulation regulates body system by releasing hormones

The body contains many cavities. Some of these cavities, such as the nasal cavity, open to the outside of the body, and some do not. The trunk contains three large cavities that do not open to the outside of the body: the thoracic cavity, the abdominal cavity, and the pelvic cavity The thoracic cavity is surrounded by the rib cage and is separated from the abdominal cavity by the muscular diaphragm. It is divided into right and left parts by a median structure called the mediastinum. The mediastinum is a partition containing the heart, the thymus, the trachea, the esophagus, and other structures. The two lungs are located on each side of the mediastinum. The abdominal cavity is bounded primarily by the abdominal muscles and contains the stomach, the intestines, the liver, the spleen, the pancreas, and the kidneys. The pelvic cavity is a small space enclosed by the bones of the pelvis and contains the urinary bladder, part of the large intestine, and the internal reproductive organs. The abdominal and pelvic cavities are not physically separated and sometimes are called the abdominopelvic cavity.

CAVITIES

Language of Anatomy

Body Cavities

Created by: Johmel De Ocampo

Serous membranes line the trunk cavities and cover the organs of these cavities. To understand the relationship between serous membranes and an organ, imagine pushing your fist into an inflated balloon. The inner balloon wall in contact with your fist represents the visceral serous membrane, and the outer part of the balloon wall represents the parietal serous membrane. The cavity, or space, between the visceral and parietal serous membranes is normally filled with a thin, lubricating film of serous fluid produced by the membranes. As an organ rubs against another organ or against the body wall, the serous fluid and smooth serous membranes reduce friction

Language of Anatomy

Serous Membrane

The pericardial cavity surrounds the heart. The visceral pericardium covers the heart, which is contained within a connective tissue sac lined with the parietal pericardium. The pericardial cavity, which contains pericardial fluid, is located between the visceral pericardium and the parietal pericardium.

PERICARDIAL CAVITY The thoracic cavity contains three serous membrane-lined cavities: a pericardial cavity and two pleural cavities.

A pleural cavity surrounds each lung, which is covered by visceral pleura. Parietal pleura lines the inner surface of the thoracic wall, the lateral surfaces of the mediastinum, and the superior surface of the diaphragm. The pleural cavity is located between the visceral pleura and the parietal pleura and contains pleural fluid

PLEURAL CAVITY

The abdominopelvic cavity contains a serous membrane-lined cavity called the peritoneal cavity. Visceral peritoneum covers many of the organs of the abdominopelvic cavity. Parietal peritoneum lines the wall of the abdominopelvic cavity and the inferior surface of the diaphragm. The peritoneal cavity is located between the visceral peritoneum and the parietal peritoneum and contains peritoneal fluid.

PERICARDIAL CAVITY

Created by: Johmel De Ocampo

Language of Anatomy

The serous membranes can become inflamed

usually as a result of an infection. PERICARDITIS (per i-kar-d tis) is inflammation of the pericardium, PLEURISY (ploor i-s ) is inflammation of the pleura, and PERITONITIS (per i-t -n tis) is inflammation of the peritoneum.

MESENTERIES (mes en-ter - z), which consist of two layers of peritoneum fused together, connect the visceral peritoneum of some abdominopelvic organs to the parietal peritoneum on the body wall or to the visceral peritoneum of other abdominopelvic organs. The mesenteries anchor the organs to the body wall and provide a pathway for nerves and blood vessels to reach the organs. Other abdominopelvic organs are more closely attached to the body wall and do not have mesenteries. Parietal peritoneum covers these other organs, which are said to be retroperitoneal (re tr -per i-t -n l; retro, behind). The retroperitoneal organs include the kidneys, the adrenal glands, the pancreas, parts of the intestines, and the urinary bladder

The central region of the body consists of the HEAD, NECK, and TRUNK. The trunk can be divided into the thorax (chest), abdomen (region between the thorax and pelvis), and pelvis (the inferior end of the trunk associated with the hips). The upper limb is divided into the arm, forearm, wrist, and hand. The arm extends from the shoulder to the elbow, and the forearm extends from the elbow to the wrist. The lower limb is divided into the thigh, leg, ankle, and foot. The thigh extends from the hip to the knee, and the leg extends from the knee to the ankle.

Body Parts & Region

Language of Anatomy

Created by: Johmel De Ocampo The abdomen is often subdivided superficially into four sections, or quadrants, by two imaginary lines one horizontal and one vertical

that intersect at the navel. The quadrants formed are: right-upper, left-upper, right-lower, left-lower quadrants. The abdomen is sometimes subdivided into regions by four imaginary lines two horizontal and two vertical. These four lines create an imaginary tic-tac-toe figure on the abdomen, resulting in nine regions: epigastric (ep-i-gas trik), right and left hypochondriac (h-p -kon dr -ak), umbilical ( m-bil i-k l), right and left lumbar ( l mbar), hypogastric (h-p -gas trik), and right and left iliac (il -ak). Clinicians use the quadrants or regions as reference points for locating the underlying organs. For example, the appendix is in the right-lower quadrant, and the pain of an acute appendicitis is usually felt there.

SUMMARY

ANATOMY

  1. Anatomy is the study of the structures of the body. 2. Systemic anatomy is the study of the body by organ systems. Regional anatomy is the study of the body by areas. 3. Surface anatomy uses superficial structures to locate deeper structures, and anatomical imaging is a noninvasive method for examining deep structures.

PHYSIOLOGY

Physiology is the study of the processes and functions of the body.

STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL ORGANIZATION OF THE HUMAN BODY

  1. The human body can be organized into six levels: chemical, cell, tissue, organ, organ system, and organism. 2. The eleven organ systems are the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, urinary, and reproductive systems.

CHARACTERISTICS OF LIFE

The characteristics of life are organization, metabolism, responsiveness, growth, development, and reproduction.

HOMEOSTASIS

  1. Homeostasis is the condition in which body functions, body fluids, and other factors of the internal environment are maintained within a range of values suitable to support life. 2. Negative-feedback mechanisms maintain homeostasis. 3. Positive-feedback mechanisms make deviations from normal even greater. Although a few positive-feedback mechanisms normally exist in the body, most positive-feedback mechanisms are harmful.

BODY POSITION

  1. A human standing erect with the face directed forward, the arms hanging to the sides, and the palms facing forward is in the anatomical position. 2. A face-upward position is supine and a face-downward one is prone.

DIRECTIONAL TERMS

Directional terms always refer to the anatomical position, regardless of the bodys actual position.

BODY PARTS AND REGIONS

  1. The body can be divided into the head, neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs. 2. The abdomen can be divided superficially into four quadrants or nine regions, which are useful for locating internal organs or describing the location of a pain.

SUMMARY

BODY PARTS AND REGIONS

  1. The body can be divided into the head, neck, trunk, upper limbs, and lower limbs. 2. The abdomen can be divided superficially into four quadrants or nine regions, which are useful for locating internal organs or describing the location of a pain.

PLANES

  1. A sagittal plane divides the body into left and right parts, a transverse plane divides the body into superior and inferior parts, and a frontal plane divides the body into anterior and posterior parts. 2. A longitudinal section divides an organ along its long axis, a transverse section cuts an organ at a right angle to the long axis, and an oblique section cuts across the long axis at an angle other than a right angle.

BODY CAVITIES

  1. The thoracic cavity is bounded by the ribs and the diaphragm. The mediastinum divides the thoracic cavity into two parts. 2. The abdominal cavity is bounded by the diaphragm and the abdominal muscles. 3. The pelvic cavity is surrounded by the pelvic bones.

SEROUS MEMBRANES

  1. The trunk cavities are lined by serous membranes. The parietal part of a serous membrane lines the wall of the cavity, and the visceral part covers the internal organs. 2. The serous membranes secrete fluid that fills the space between the parietal and visceral membranes. The serous membranes protect organs from friction. 3. The pericardial cavity surrounds the heart, the pleural cavities surround the lungs, and the peritoneal cavity surrounds certain abdominal and pelvic organs. 4. Mesenteries are parts of the peritoneum that hold the abdominal organs in place and provide a passageway for blood vessels and nerves to organs. 5. Retroperitoneal organs are found behind the parietal peritoneum. The kidneys, the adrenal glands, the pancreas, parts of the intestines, and the urinary bladder are examples of retroperitoneal organs.
