All Organ Systems together.
Put the Structural Organizations of the Body in Order:
Chemical Level > Cellular Level > Tissue Level > Organ Level > Organ System Level > Organismal Layer
The sural region is ___________________ to the femoral region.
Inferior
The gluteal region is best seen from the __________________ view.
Posterior View
On the anterior surface of the body which region is distal to the antebrachial region?
Palm of Hand
Which plane divides the body into right and left halves?
Sagittal
Which plane divides the body into (equal) left and right parts?
Midsagittal
Which plane divides the body into (unequal) right and left parts?
Parasagittal
What divides the body into superior and inferior parts?
Transverse
What plane divides the body into anterior and posterior parts?
Frontal
What plane passes through the body or organ at an angle?
Oblique
The muscular partition that separates the abdominal cavity from the
pelvic cavity is the ______________?
There is no true separation
What 2 cavities make up the Dorsal Body Cavity?
- Cranial
2. Vertebral
What cavity encase brain and is enclosed by skull?
Cranial Cavity
What cavity encases spinal chord and is enclosed by the vertebrae?
Vertebral Cavity
What 2 cavities make up the ventral cavity?
- Thoracic Body Cavity
2. Abdominopelvic Body Cavity
What cavity is enclosed by the ribs, sternum and vertebrae; houses the lungs and heart?
Thoracic Body Cavity
What Cavity is enclosed by muscular digestive organs, kidneys, bladder and internal male and female reproductive organs?
Abdominopelvic Cavity
What cavities in the thoracic cavity hold the lungs?
2 Pleural Cavities
What is the region between the 2 pleural cavities?
Mediastinum
What cavity in the mediastinum holds the heart?
Pericardial Cavity
What cavity contains stomach, intestines, spleen, liver, and gall bladder?
Abdominal Cavity
What cavity contains portions of large intestine, urinary bladder, reproductive organs and rectum?
Pelvic Cavity
The bladder is typically found in the _____________ region of the abdominopelvic cavity.
Hypogastric
The lungs are surrounded by a double layered serous membrane to prevent friction and aid in protection. What is the name of this membrane?
Pleura
Walls of ventral cavity and outer surface of
organs are covered by thin, double layered
membrane called?
Serous Membrane
What layer of serous membrane adheres to the cavity wall?
Parietal Layer
What layer of serous membrane adheres to outside surface of the organ?
Visceral Layer
What separates 2 layers of serous membrane and allows organs to glide past each other without friction?
Serous Fluid
What serous membrane surrounds the pleural cavity and the lungs?
Pleura
What Serous Membrane surrounds the pericardial cavity and heart?
Pericardium
What surrounds the abdominal cavity and the abdominal organs?
Peritoneum
A patient has suffered a heart attack. In order to determine which vessels were occluded to cause the attack which scan would be the most useful?
Digital subtraction angiograph
X-rays passing through the body onto film, Shows bony or dense structures with
hazy soft tissues.
Radiography
Before and after imaging of radio-opaque dye passing through arteries and veins?
Digital Subtraction Angiography
Computer assisted radiography in which x-rays are directed in many different angles around a section of the body; Visualizes soft tissues and can render a 3-D image when put together with a computer.
Computed Tomography
Uses sound waves reflected of body tissues to produce images; Safe, non-invasive way to visualize fetuses during pregnancy?
Sonography (Ultra-sound)
Body is exposed to a high-energy magnetic field that arranges protons in the body in relation to the field. A pulse of radio waves “reads” these ion
patterns which can be observed as color-coded patterns on a video monitor; Shows soft tissues,
brain, blood vessels, and tumors using no radiation.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Body is injected with positrons (positively charged
particles) and it is taken up by tissues. The collision of positrons with negatively charged electrons produces gamma rays which are picked up by gamma ray cameras to produce a PET image; good for showing high rates of activity: oxygen consumption, metabolism.
Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
What are the 4 major tissue types?
- Epithelial Tissue
- Connective Tissue
- Muscle Tissue
- Nervous Tissue
What is the study of tissues?
Histology
The tissue type that covers external body surfaces, lines the inside of organs and cavities, and forms glands is ________________.
Epithelial Tissues
What tissue is sheets of compact cells in single or multiple layers?
Epithelium
Cells have 2 sides… What is the Apical side?
Free side of cells (top)
