BIO midterm; anatomy/physiology cell bio Flashcards
anatomy
study of structure
physiology
study of function
metabolism
sum of chemical changes in body
anabolism
small molecules make large molecules
catabolism
larger molecules disassociate to become smaller
what are the 3Rs of physiology
Responsiveness
Regulation
Reproduction
organization of the body
atoms, molecules,cells,tissue,organ,organ system body (organismal level)
Cell
smallest unit, building block of all plant and animal tissue
tissue
collection of cells organized by specific function
organ
tissues form a structure and perform one function such as a kidney
organ system
one of more structures/organs that act together in performing major function of the body ex: bladder, kidney
organism
12 recognized organ systems that act together in homeostasis (regulate balance of systems) and viability of species.
list the organ systems
Integumentary (skin protection)
skeletal (bone structure)
articular (joints for movement)
muscular (skeletal movement and fluid movement)
neurological (brain/spinal cord)
endocrine (cells/glands produce hormones)
respiratory (gas exchange)
circulatory (movement of blood to organ system)
lymphatic( clean body fluids)
Digestive( breakdown of nitro waste)
Reproductive (birth, development)
Anatomical is when…
Body standing erect
arms/hands at sides
palms FACING FORWARD
Planes of reference are….
HEAD- FRONTAL PLANE
WAIST- TRANVERSE PLANE
KNEE- SAGITAL PLANE
sectional anatomy
divide the body into specific planes or sections for medical imaging
how does sectional anatomy divide the body…
into posterior and anterior portions
DIVIDED INTO EQUAL RIGHT AND LEFT HALVES
head region of the plane is called the…
coronal section
Parasagital is..
Divided into UNEQUAL right and left halves
The transverse horizontal plane is divided into
superior and inferior portions
THIS IS KNOWN AS CROSS-SECTIONS
Which plane type is unequal?
parasagittal
which plane is equal?
sagittal
what does the oblique plane do?
allows visual of the surface structures -FEATURES ON BONES AND MARGINS ON ORGANS
serious membrane
thin layer of cells that produce FLUID
Visceral covers…
Organs
Partial covers…
internal surfaces/walls
Homeostasis is…
The body’s ability to change due to internal and external states/conditions
Accomplished by a CONSTANT CYCLE between receptors control center and effector.
receptors are….
viscera that transfer info to our CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
