Q

subdivisions of anatomy

surface anatomy

A

looking at marking on the body to visualize

internal anatomy or structures are looking like

we can also use touch

as a method to visualise structures

that are internal to the body

*no disection involved in surface anatomy

Q

subdivisions of anatomy

gross anatomy

*can be studied by 2 general approaches

systemic approch:

(systemic anatomy)

A

systemic approach :

concider the whole body systems

(ie) cardiovascular system, or the muscular system, skeletal system

*does involve dissection

17
Q

subdivisions of anatomy

gross anatomy

*can be studied by 2 general approaches

regional approach:

(regional anatomy)

A

looking at a specific

region of the body

(rather than looking at at the various systems involved

this in contrast is)

restricted to a particular region in the body

(ie) the head, chest etc.

*does involve dissection

18
Q

subdivisions of anatomy

other subdivisions

of the study of anatomy

(4)

(these specialised areas which focus in on certain aspects of the anatomy)

A
  • histology
  • cytology
  • pathology
  • embryology
19
Q

<strong>1st </strong>level of organisation

chemical level

A

atoms

(C, H, O, N, P)

group together to

form a very important molecule called

DNA

20
Q

<strong>1st</strong> level of organisation

chemical level

atoms that make up DNA

A
  • C carbon
  • H hydrogen
  • O oxygen
  • N nitrogen
  • P phosophorus
21
Q

between<strong> 1st chemical and 2nd cellular</strong> level

DNA is the molecule that carries our _ _ or _

A

genetic material

or

code

22
Q

<strong>2nd</strong> level of organsation

Cellular level

The genetic material of DNA is stored in

A

a cellular structure known as

the nucleus

(which occurs within each cell of our body)

23
Q

<strong>3rd</strong> level of organisation

tissue level

from the cellular level how are tissues formed?

A

cells group together

with similar structure and function

and

form tissues

24
Q

<strong> 4th</strong> level of organisation

organ level

from the tissue level, ​how are organs formed?

A

tissues that are similar in

function and structure

group together to

form organs

25
Q

<strong>5th</strong> level of organisation

system level

A

where various organs make up a particular

system

in the body

(ie. the digestive system)

26
Q

<strong>6th</strong> level of organisation

(final, highest level of organisation)

organismal level

(human organism)

A

when all the various body systems are put together

27
Q

11 organ systems

A

muscular system

  • skeletal muscles
  • tendons
28
Q

11 organ systems

A

reproductive system

29
Q

11 organ systems

A

lymphatic system

(green vessels are our lymphnodes

*important to assist our immunity)

30
Q

11 organ systems

A

respiratory system

31
Q

11 organ systems

A

integumentary system

32
Q

11 organ systems

A

nervous system

(yellow lines are nerve tracks)

33
Q

11 organ systems

A

skeletal system

(all the bones and joints)

34
Q

11 organ systems

A

urinary system

(*important for a range of functions incl.

ph of our blood,

excreating urea

among other functions)

35
Q

11 organ systems

A

digestive system

36
Q

11 organ systems

A

endocrine system

(what helps control our hormones)

37
Q

11 organ systems

A

cardiovascular system

(works closely with our respitory system to

deliver oxygen to all the tissues,

via cells within the blood,

also with our lymphatic system in fighting infections,

immunity and delivering immune cells to injured tissues, or tissue that have pathogens invading them)
