Vocabulary And Homeostasis Flashcards
What are the three anatomical planes
Saggital plane: down the midline
Frontal plane: goes ear to ear
Transverse plane: splits body to inferior and superior
What does Axial and Appendicular mean
Axial: the middle of the body, everything excluding limbs
Appendicular/addendages: limbs
What are these movements:
Pronation
Supination
External/lateral rotation
Internal/medial rotation
Circumduction
Pronation: rotation of the radius facing down or back
Supination: rotation of the radius facing up or forward
External rotation: rotation of something away from the midline
Internal rotation: rotation of something toward the midline
Circumductiom: moving limb in a circle. A mixture of movements including flextion, abduction, entention, adduction.

What is Homeostasis
Process of keeping everything constant or normal
What are the two feedbacks the body has when faced change in a vital or other processes changing homeostasis
Negative feedback
Positive feedback
What are the steps to homeostasis
- Stimulus: what keeps the thing normal is now inhabited
- Receptor: the receptor detects the change in body
- Input: the information that something wrong is happening is sent to the control center/brain
- Output: an order is sent from control center/brain down pathways to the effector to change it.
- Response: the order being complete through the effector to bring you body back to normal
What is afferent and efferent
Afferent: arriving
Efferent: exiting
Relative for the input and output effects for steps to homeostasis
