Systematic anatomy
Type of basic approach to the study of anatomy- the study of the Organization of the body by areas

Surface Anatomy
Anatomical imaging

Surface anatomy
General ways to examine the internal structures of a living person – involves the use of x-rays, ultrasounds, magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)
Anatomical imaging
Is the scientific discipline that deals with the processes or functions of living things
Refers to how the bodywork
Physiology
Types of microscopic anatomy
Cytology and histology
Traces structural changes throughout life
Developmental anatomy
Levels of organization
Atom– Cell– tIssues – Organ – organ system – organism
Characteristics of life
Organization, metabolism, responsiveness, growth, development, reproduction
Ability to consume fuel and break it down
Metabolism
Refers to specific interrelationship among the parts of an organism and how those parts interact to perform specific functions
organization
Ability to respond to stimuli
Responsiveness
Refers to an increase in size of all or part of the organism
Growth
Includes the changes an organism undergoes through time
Development
Ability to multiply
reproduction
Maintaining the balance of the body
Homeostasis
Two types of stimuli
External and internal
A type of feedback that puts back the balance in homeostasis. Example shivering
Negative feedback
A type of stimuli that pushes further the stimuli
Positive feedback
Produces a change to a variable (the factor being regulated)
Stimulus
