Ex 7: 1) Anatomy and physiology describe two complementary but different ways to look at the animal body.
Anatomy and physiology are both used to study the animal body. Anatomy is form and structure by using microscopic anatomy, macroscopic anatomy, regional anatomy, and systemic anatomy. While physiology is the functions of the body.
62
Ex 7: 2) Terms such as up, down, above, below, and beside are not very useful in describing anatomic locations.
Anatomic terms must have the same meaning regardless of the orientation of the animal or the position of the observer. Basic anatomic terminology is based on imaginary slices, called planes, through the animal body that can be used as points or areas of reference and on sets of directional terms that have opposite meanings from each other
62
Ex 7: 4) There are a few differences between human directional terms and those of nonhuman animals.
Humans stand on two feet in an upright position (bipeds). While animals with four feet are called quadrupeds with there body in a horizontal position. This means that terms like anterior and dorsal refer to different directions. For humans anterior would mean front and in animals it would mean toward the head.
62
Ex 7: 3) A radiograph of a horse's front fetlock joint is called a dorsopalmar (DP) view.
A dorsopalmar radiograph is a radiograph taken of the horses front foot that would show the bones of the hoof and pastern as it relates to the sole and outer hoof wall.
62
Ex 7: 5) When performing surgery on the digestive tract, we must take care to suture it securely closed.
This is vital to prevent any undigested or waste from escaping and potentially causing a severe infection in the abdominal cavity.
63
Ex 7: 6) Oblique positions are sometimes used in radiography.
Oblique positions are used when you want to prevent body structures from overlapping as sometimes occurs in dorsal, sternal, or lateral recumbency positions.
