Chapter 1 Flashcards
Anatomy
consists of parts of body
what makes something living
- made of cells/ growth
-reproduction
-need of energy/ produces energy - responsiveness to stimuli
-movement - metabolism
hierarchy of living things
1) atoms+ molecules
2) cells
3) tissue
4) organs
5) organ systems
6) organism
4 of the non-evasive techniques
Inspection-observe body for abnormality
Palpitation- use whole hand to check tenderness
Percussion- tap w/ finger to hear echoes
Auscultation- listen to body sounds
10 body systems
integumentary
skeletal
cardiovascular
lymphatic
respiratory
digestive
Nervous
Endocrine
Reproductive
Urinary
tissue
a group of cells held together by junctions for specialized functions
4 Tissue groups
Epithelial
Connective
Muscular
Nervous
Epithelial tissue location
body surfaces, hollow organs, glands
functions of Epithelial tissue
1) secretion
2) absorbing
3) filtration
4) gas exchange
classified by
layers and shape
simple squamous
lungs, blood vessels, kidney
-to secrete, filtrate, diffusion, absorption
simple cuboidal
Kidney , Ovary
- absorption and secretion
simple columnar
bronchi oles, lungs, sinus, uterus, spinal cord, brain
- can contain cilia
- used for secretion and filtration
goblet cells
unicellular
Both a cell and a gland
secrete mucus
lumen
an opening of space found in an organ or duct
Pseudo stratified
commonly have cilia and goblet cells
respiratory passages (trachea, lungs, bronchi oles)
- to get rid of particles from respiratory tract
transitional
shapeshifter
bladder and uterus
allow stretch ability without rupture
- goes from cuboidal to squamous
stratified cuboidal
absorption, protection
pancreas, salvitory glands
stratified columnar
protection, secretion
male urethra
stratified squamous
skin
cells fill with keratin as they age
Gland
can be one cell or many cells that secrete either on the surface or into the bloodstream
Merocrine
exocytosis (active transport) allows for the secretion to occur
NO LOSS of STRUCTURE
Apocrine
must be pinched off the secrete
MUST REPAIR ITSELF
Holocrine
cell gland ruptures, needs to cell divide in order to make new
