THE HUMAN BODY: AN ORIENTATION Flashcards
use to solve problems concerning the body when healthy or diseased.
anaphy
Study of the body’s structures.
anatomy
use in med school, anatomy and pathology labs to observe structure in living people witch imaging technique also helps
dissect
true or false the area of specialization anatomy have are : Developmental anatomy Gross anatomy Cytology Surface anatomy
true
focuses on the first 8 weeks of development.
embryology
examines cells, and histology examines tissues.
cytology
study of structures that can be observe only w/ magnifying device.
microscopic anatomy
micro means ?
small
studies organs from either a systemic or a regional perspective.
gross anatomy
study of structures that can be observe only w/out magnifying device
macroscopic anatomy
uses superficial structures to locate internal structures, and anatomical imaging is a noninvasive technique for identifying internal (deep) structures.
surface anatomy
true or false anatomical imaging are the ff: x-ray ultrasound digital subtraction anglography magnetic resonance image posittron emission tomography
true
study of structures that make-up a discrete body system that is the group of structure that work together to perform a unique body function
original anatomy
study of inter relationships of all the structures of a specific body region
systematic anatomy
true or false
the general approach to the study of body structure are regional anatomy and systematic anatomy
false, original anatomy
study of the body’s functions. It can be approached from cellular or a systems point of view.
physiology
state of steady internal condition
homeostasis
true or false area of specialization in physiology are the ff: Cell physiology Systemic physiology Neurophysiology Cardiovascular physiology Pathology
true
true or false area of specialization in physiology are the ff: original physiology Systemic physiology Neurophysiology Cardiovascular physiology Pathology
false, cell physiology
examines the processes occurring in cells.
cell physiology
considers the functions of organ systems.
system physiology
focuses on the nervous system and includes Body, spinal cord and nerves and how it works together to perform its function as complex and diverse
neurophysiology
deals with the heart and blood vessels
cardiovascular physiology
deals with all aspects of disease.
pathology
smallest unit of elements and buildup of (+)(-)(0)
atoms
level that involves interactions between atoms, which are tiny (simplest) building blocks of matter.
chemical level
basic structural and functional units of plants and animals.
cells
Smallest independent functioning unit of living organism w/in bacteria
cells
consist of flexible membrane.
human cell
combine to form organelles
molecules
small structures inside cells
organelles
group of similar cells and the materials surrounding them
tissue
true or false
four basic tissue:
epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous
true
true or false
four basic tissue:
tissue, connective, muscle, and nervous
false, epithelial
two or more tissue types that perform one or more common functions.
organ
true or false :
urinary bladder, heart, stomach, and lung are examples of org
true
group of organs that together perform a common function or set of functions and are therefore viewed as a unit.
organ system
any living thing considered as a whole
organism
network of organ systems, all mutually dependent on one another
human organism
