Introduction to Human Anatomy part 1 Flashcards
____ study of the body structure in their relationship to one another
Anatomy
_____study of large body structures that are visible to the naked eye.
Gross Anatomy
____ superficial anatomical markings, general form (Cutting)
Surface anatomy
____ studied of all structures in an organ system
Systemic anatomy
___ study of a small structure that cannot be seen with the naked eye.
Microscopic Anatomy
____ the study of individual cells and their internal structures called organelles
Cytology
___ the study of tissues, groups of specialized cells.
Histology
_____ the study function and how the body works
physiology
_____relationship between anatomy and physiology.
EX: The elbow is a monoaxial hinge joint. The tight fit between the humerus and ulna only permits motion through the sagittal plane.
Structure determines function
_____ state of balance in which the body’s internal environment remains relatively stable despite changes in the internal and external environment.
Homeostasis
Homeostatic control mechanism involves the following Components: They are Seven
VSSCENP
Variable Stimulus Sensor (receptor) Control center Effector Negative feedback Positive feedback
____ factor being regulated
Variable
___produces a change in the variable
Stimulus
_____monitors enviroment and detects changes
Sensor(receptor)
____ analyzes input from the receptor and determines output to effector
Control center
___ cell or organ that carries out a response to regulate the variable by either depressing or enhancing the stimulus
effectors
___ the response of the effector counteracts the intensity of the original stimulus.
EX: regulation of the body temperature and blood composition
Negative feedback
___ the effector response intensifies the original stimulus causing the variable to move further away from its normal limits,
- Usually destabilizing
- Ex: Childbirth and blood clotting
Positive feedback
___ each level builds on the previous from smallest and simplest to largest and most complex
Levels of organization
What level has the simplest atom
- Atoms
- Molecules
Chemical level
_____ tiny particles which are the building blocks of matter
Atoms
______atoms combine to form molecules
Molecules
____cells are the smallest living units in the body
Cellular level
____similar cells grouped together to perform a common function
Tissue level
