Exam 1-Exercise 1 Flashcards
Study of structure
Anatomy
Study of function
Physiology
Why are anatomy and physiology inseparable?
Function always reflects structure
System for protection,Vitamin D synthesis,Sensory receptors, sweat and oil glands
Integumentary System
Protection,movement,produce blood cells,stores minerals
Skeletal
Posture,movement,produces heat
Muscular
Coordinates the body as a fast-acting control system; Responds to external and internal change
Nervous
Coordinates the body as a slow-acting control system
Endocrine
Transportation,temperature regulation,water regulation,pH regulation,defense
Cardiovascular
Returns fluid to the cardiovascular system
Lymphatic
Gas exchange
Respiratory
Breaks large nutrient molecules into small ones that can be absorbed
Digestive
Eliminates waste
Urinary
Produce offspring
Reproductive
A physiological state in which the physical and chemical conditions of the internal environment are being maintained within tolerable ranges
Homeostasis
Monitors the environment and sends information to the control center
Receptor/Thermostat
Determines the set point and the appropriate response by the effector
Control center (integrator)/electronic controls in thermostat
Produces the response
Effector/air conditioner or furnace
The response reduces or shuts off the original stimulus
Negative Feedback
