TEST 1 THEORY : Intro-Tissue Flashcards
anatomy is the study of
the structure of the human body
anatomy is divided into
gross and microscopic anatomy
gross anatomy is divided into
surface, regional and systemic
microscopic anatomy is divided into
cytology and histology
cytology is the study of
cells
histology is the study of
tissues
physiology is the study of
the functions of the body
cell physiology is the study of
the individual cell
histophysiology is the study of
a group of cells functioning together
system physiology is the study of
how the cell and tissues join together to form the organ
pathophysiology is the study of
when an organ/system is not functioning well
levels of organisation
chemical–cellular–tissue–organ–organ system–organism

sagittal
dividing into right and left
frontal
dividing into anterior and posterior

dividing into superior and inferior
atomic number
number of protons
mass number
number of protons and neutrons
elements
substance that consists entirely of atoms with same atomic no.; cannot be broken down into simpler substances
molecules
chemical that contains more than 1 atom
compounds
contain atoms of more than 1 element; properties are diff. from original elements
isotopes
variant of chemical element with diff. no. of neutrons
radioisotopes
contain unstable nuclei that emit radiation; used for medical investigations and treatment
inert elements (helium, neon)
elements with completely filled outer shells
ions
element with incompletely filled outer shells
cation
positively charged ions
anion
negatively charged ions
bonds
forces of attraction that hold the atoms of a molecule together
ionic bonds
formed between anions and cation held together by their opposite charges (donation of electron)
covalent bonds
formed between atoms when they share electrons
covalent bond types
number of electrons shared (single, double, triple). strength of bond (polar and non-polar)
inorganic compound - water
excellent solvent, high heat capacity and essential reactant in chemical reactions of living things
organic compounds
contain C, H, O
4 main classes of large organic molecules
Carbohydrates, fats, proteins and nucleic acids
