Microscopic anatomy

A

Structures are too small to be seen with the naked eye
Cells and tissues can be viewed only with a microscope
Ex. sections of the skin and observe its layers like the epidermis (consisting of the epithelium) and dermis (consists of connective tissues)

15
Q

All homeostatic control mechanisms have at least three components:

A

Receptors - response to changes in stimuli(environment) / Gather information and send it to the brain

Control Center - Brain analyze information and give an appropriate response.

Effector - provides a means of response to the stimulus (organs or muscles that provide a response to stimulus)

16
Q

Negative feedback

A

Includes most homeostatic control mechanism
Shuts off the original stimulus or reduces its intensity once you got the balance
World like a household thermostat
Ex. kapag tataas ung body temp mo, papawisan ka
Summary: stimulus that is detected by the receptors (hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic) to the control center and to the effector

17
Q

Positive feedback

A

The reaction happens in a faster way
Rare in the human body
Increases the original stimulus to push the variable farther
In the body, positive feedback occurs in blood clotting (may net-like siya na covering–thrombin) and during the birth of a baby

18
Q

THE LANGUAGE OF ANATOMY

A

A system composed of special terminology and symbols unique to the human body for us to better understand its concepts and principles and to avoid confusion and misunderstanding when referring to position, direction, regions, and body structures

19
Q

ANATOMICAL POSITION

A

Refers to a standard or full-body position used to avoid confusion
Where the body is standing erect, feet parallel, arms hanging at the sides with the palm facing forward and thumbs pointing away from the body
Terminology refers to this position regardless of the actual body position

20
Q

Supine

A

Nakahiga; When the subject is lying down with face up

21
Q

Prone

A

Nakadapa; When the subject is lying face down

22
Q

Superior (cranial or cephalic)

A

Toward the head or upper part of a structure or the body; above
Ex. the nose is SUPERIOR to the mouth (since the nose is above the mouth)

23
Q

Inferior (caudal)

A

Away from the head or toward the lower part of the structure or body; below
Ex. the mouth is INFERIOR to the nose (since the mouth is below the nose)

24
Q

Anterior (ventral)

A

Toward or at the front of the body, in front of
Ex. the breast is ANTERIOR to the spine (the breast is in front of the spine)

25
Q

Posterior (dorsal)

A

Toward or at the backside of the body; behind
Ex. , the kidneys are POSTERIOR to the abdominal wall (since the kidneys are found behind the abdominal wall)

26
Q

Medial

A

Toward or at the midline of the body, on the inner side of
Ex. the heart is MEDIAL to the lungs (the heart is located in the middle of the left and right lung)

27
Q

Lateral

A

Away from the midline of the body, on the outer side of
Ex. the lungs are LATERAL to the heart (the lungs are located on the sides of the heart)

28
Q

Intermedial

A

This is between a more medial and a more lateral structure
Ex. the eyes are INTERMEDIAL to the nose and ears (the eyes are located in the middle of the nose and ears)

29
Q

Superficial (external)

A

Toward or at the body surface
Ex. the skin is SUPERFICIAL to the skeletal (the skin is outside the body and the skeleton is inside)

30
Q

Deep (internal)

A

Away from the body surface; or more internal
Ex. the lungs are DEEP to the rib cage (the lungs are found inside the rib cage)

31
Q

Proximal

A

Close to the origin of the body part of the point of attachment to a limb to the body trunk
Ex. the knee is PROXIMAL to the ankle (the knee is nearer to the hip, or the point of attachment, compared to the ankle)

32
Q

Distal

A

Farther from the origin of a body part or the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk
Ex. the wrist is DISTAL to the elbow (the wrist is located farther away from the shoulders or the point of attachment in relation to the elbows position)

33
Q

Sagittal section

A

Divides the body into left and right parts
Cutting any part of the body in the left and right portions, regardless of its size and volume on each side

34
Q

Median, or midsagittal

A

Divides the body into equal left and right parts
Simply cutting the body or organ into left and right equal portions

35
Q

Frontal or coronal

A

Divides the body into anterior and posterior parts
Cut along a lengthwise plane that divides the body into anterior or posterior parts, which is also called a coronal section

36
Q

Transverse or cross

A

Divides the body into superior and inferior parts
Cut along a horizontal plane dividing the body or organs into superior and inferior parts, which is also called a cross-section

A
