Gross Anatomy - 1/2 [Introduction/Chemistry Of Life] Flashcards
What’re the levels of organization
Atoms and molecules
Organelles
Cells
Tissues
Organs
Systems
Mention the anatomical directions
Superior
Inferior
Anterior/ventral
Posterior/Dorsal
Medial
Lateral
Proximal
Distal
Superficial
Deep
What’re the planes of the human body
Sagital
Midsagital
Frontal/coronal
Transverse/horizontal
Mention the body cavities
Ventral - Thoracic, abdominopelvic
Dorsal - Cranial, Spinal
How many regions/quadrants has the abdominopelvic cavity?
4 quadrants
9 regions
Mention the body regions
Axial - head, neck, torso
Appendicular - upper and lower extremities
Why does homeostasis is important?
Survival depends on the maintenance/restoration of it by using - feedback and rarely +
Examples of + feedback
Childbirth
Blood clot
What’re energy levels? Explain
Orbital regions (up 8 e-) surrounding the atomic nucleus, contain e-
Energy levels increases the farther away it’s from the nucleus. T/F
True
Define element, molecule, compound
E - pure substance, 1 kind of atom
M - group of atoms bound together
C - its molecules >than 1 kind of atom
Chemical bonds form to make atoms more stable. T/F
True
How does ionic bonds form
Atom gain(-)/ losses(+) e- in its outer energy level to be stable
The bond is formed when (-) (+) attracts each other
What’s an electrolyte
Molecules breaks apart in water to form ions
How does a covalent bond form?
Atoms share outer e- to complete the energy level and be stable
Is use to form all the major organic compounds in the body
