Intro/How were Made Flashcards
Define Anatomy and Physiology
Anatomy - study of form and structure
Physiology - Study of function
define cytology and histology
Cytology - study of cells
Histology - study of tissues
What tissues is the body made of (4)
Epithelial, Neural, Muscle and Connective
List different types of anatomy and what they study
Systemic - organ systems
Developmental - how the body changes over time
Clinical - medical specialties
Classification of humans
Kingdom - anamalia
Phylum - chordata
Class - mamalia
Order - primates
Family - Hominidae
Genus - homo
Species - Sapiens
Different types of physiology
Cell - how cell responds to environment
Organ - how organs work
Exercise - effect of exercise on systems
Systemic - functions of organ systems
Pathophysiology - effects of disease
List levels of organization
Chemical, cellular, tissues, organs, organ systems, organisms
What are the body planes?
Frontal, sagittal, transverse
What are the true cavities? (4)
Right and left pleural cavities, peritoneal cavity, pericardium cavity
What is above the Pericardial cavity that contains esophagus, trachea and major vessels?
Mediastinum
What are the parts of a serous membrane and where are they?
Visceral part - touching organ
Cavity - contains serous fluid
Parietal part - Lines cavity
What is epithelial tissue and an example
Lines glands, controls entrance and exit, produces serous fluid
Ex. Skin
What is connective tissue + example
Contains extra cellular protein fibres and ground substance to create the matrix
Structural framework, protection, connects, transports, stores energy
Connective tissue proper - loose and dense
Fluid - blood and lymph
Supportive - bone and lymph
Types of muscles
Skeletal, Cardiac, Smooth
Function of neural system
Rapid communication around body
