Chapter 1 Flashcards
Back (Dorsal) Area
Scapular, Vertebral, Lumbar, Sacral, Glute, and Perenial Regions.
Cardiovascular system
Heart and Blood Vessels
Integumentary system
Skin, hair and nails
Thoracic Cavity (Continents)
- 2 Pleural Cavities for the lungs
- Mediastinum which contains the Pericardial Cavity
Types of Microscopic anatomy
1) Cytology) Study of cells and cellular stages
2) Histology) study of Tissues
Nervous system
Brain, spinal chord and nerves
Frontal Plane
Splits body into anterior and posterior parts
Superior
(Cranial)
Toward the head
(Superman)
Sagital Plane
Cuts body into left and right parts
Midsagittal) on midline
ParaSagittal) not on midline
Survival Needs
1) Nutrients (Food) for energy/cell building
2) Oxygen) for energy release (ATP production)
3) Water) Environment for chemical reactions/ fluid base
4) Normal body temperature) 37C (98.6) Affect chemical reaction rate
5) Appropriate Atmospheric pressure) Adequate gas exchange
Components of a Control Mechanism
1) Receptor {Sensor} ) Monitors environment/ Respond to stimuli
(Travels on affluent pathway)
2) Control Center) Receives input and determines response
(Travels on Effluent pathway)
3) Effector) Receives response and determines means to respons
Abdominopelvic Cavity
-Abdominal cavity and Pelvic cavity.
Visceral Serosa
-Membrane that covers internal organs.
Homeostasis
- Maintenance of stable internal environment
- Done through continuous monitoring of variables and communication via control mechanisms
Thoracic Area
Sternal, Auxiliary, and Mammary.
Lower Limb
Coxal (hip), femoral, Patellar, Crueal, And fibular area. Popliteal and Sural regions on back of leg
Manus Area
Palmar, Digits, and Pollux Region. Metacarpal on back of hand.
Respiratory System
Trachea and Larynx. Lungs and Bronchi
2 and 2
The Two major body regions
1) Axial (Head, Neck, and Trunk)
2) Appendicular) Limbs.
Upper Limb Area
Acromial, Brachial (Arm), Antecubital, Antebrachial, and Carpal Area. We have the OleCranal region on the elbow.
Endocrine System
Pituitary gland, pineal gland (PP on da brain) Thyroid and Thymus (TT in da throat), adrenal glands, pancreas, and the gonads (APG everything else).
Types of Gross anatomy
1) Regional) All structures in a specific region
2) Systematic) looking at specific systems
3) Surface) looking at structures as they appear under the skin
Male reproductive system
Penis and testis
Lateral
Away from the midline of the body
Muscular System
Muscles and Tendons
