HFDS 130 organization of the human body Flashcards
study of the structure and RELATIONSHIPS between BODY PARTS
“What the BODY IS”
ANATOMY
science of HOW those parts come together to FUNCTION and keep the body alive.
“What the BODY DOES”
PHYSIOLOGY
“Structure determines ______”
FUNCTION
smooth brain; frequent seizures
Lissencephaly
Lissors (Greek) = smooth
Encephalos (Greek) = head
folds of the brain for increased surface area. To fit more neurons and matter inside the space to process information better
gyri & sulci
7 LIFE PROCESSES
MRS GREN
MOVEMENT
RESPIRATION
SENSITIVITY
GROWTH
REPRODUCTION
EXCRETION
NUTRITION
7 LIFE PROCESSES
changing place or position
MOVEMENT
7 LIFE PROCESSES
generating energy
RESPIRATION
7 LIFE PROCESSES
being aware of surroundings
SENSITIVITY
7 LIFE PROCESSES
removal of waste products
EXCRETION
7 LIFE PROCESSES
increase in size/number
GROWTH
7 LIFE PROCESSES
creating new individuals
REPRODUCTION
7 LIFE PROCESSES
obtaining food to build a body
NUTRITION
5 BIOLOGICAL AND PHYSICAL NEEDS
Food, Water, Oxygen, Heat, and Pressure
FWOHP
- biological process to convert food to energy & building blocks for the growth, repair and maintenance of life.
- All biochemical fractions within the body
METABOLISM
3 MAIN PURPOSES OF METABOLISM
Convert food to ENERGY
Convert food to BUILDING BLOCKS
Elimination of NITROGENOUS WASTES
any ingested CHEMICAL that is used for growth, repair, and maintenance of the body
NUTRIENTS
2 TYPES OF METABOLISM
ANABOLISM AND CATABOLISM
- BUILDS UP large molecules from smaller ones USING ENERGY
- NEGATIVE NET ENERGY = uses more ATP than what it produces
- biosynthetic metabolism
“Synthesis” = to make / to form
EX: DEHYDRATION
ANABOLISM
- BREAKS DOWN large molecules into smaller ones releasing energy
- Produces more ATP than what it needs
- ENERGY-YIELDING metabolism
EX: HYDROLYSIS
CATABOLISM
ENERGY CURRENCY of a cell
ATP
- Coined by CLAUDE BERNARD
- “INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT”
- Underlying principally for HOMEOSTASIS
- “The STABILITY of the internal environment is the condition for the free and independent life”
- The fixity of the milieu supposes a perfection of the organism such that the external variations are at each instant compensated for and equilibrated by the body
MILIEU INTERIEUR
- Tendency toward a relatively STABLE EQUILIBRIUM between interdependent elements, especially as MAINTAINED BY PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESSES
- Constant struggle against external environment to maintain/remain internal equilibrium / uniformity using diff. physiological processes
Greek ; “_______” = similar
“______” = standing still
HOMEOSTASIS
Homoios
Stasis
_______is simply the loss of homeostasis in our bodies; Whether there is:
- not enough production of ATP
- Too much waste products in our blood
- Inability to compensate for the extreme outside temp.
