Question | Answer |
---|---|
Anatomy | study, classification,and description of structures and organs in body |
Physiology | processes and functions of the body |
Anterior/Ventral | face forward, front of body |
Posterior/Dorsal | toward the back |
Cranial | toward the head |
Caudual | twoard the tail |
Superior | toward the head or above |
Inferior | toward the feet , lower |
Medial | towadr the midline |
Lateral | toward the side |
proximal | near the trunk, |
distal | away from structure |
Superficial | near the surface |
Deep | further away from body surface |
Atoms | smallest particles that form building blocks of matter |
Molecule | 2 or more atoms form |
cell | smallest living units of structures and function |
tissue | organization of similar cells that act together to perform a special function |
system | organzation of varyng numbers of and kinds of organs to perform complex functions |
organ | group of several kinds of tissues to perform special function |
homeostasis | relationship betweenint/ext enviroments to maintain and promote health |
cytoplasm | exists in cells, gel-like substance, internal living material, contains water, proteins, minerals , salts, carbohydrates |
plasma membrane | outer shell, selectively permable, |
Nucleus | largest organelle,Brain, |
Ribosomes | protein factories, produce proteins and enzymes |
Mitochondria | powerhouse, bean shaped, convert food to complex energy |
Lysosomes | digest foods, sac-like |
Golgi apparatus | packaging plant, waste products |
Centrioles | rod-shaped,paired,aid in formation of spindle in mitosis |
ER | endoplasmic reticulum |
Mitosis | cell division where each duaghter cell has smae chromosomes as parent |
Interpahse | first and last pahse of mitosis, whole cells |
Propahse | nucleus forms two starnds(chromatids), centriloes form spindles |
Metaphase | nucleus membrane and nucleous dissappear, spindle fibers attach to each chromatid |
Anaphase | chromosomes pulled to each end of cel, and cell division begins |
Telophase | final stage, 2 nuclei appear and chromosomes disappear |
Active transport | movement of materials across the membrane of a cell by chemical activity that allows th cel to admit larger molecules than would otherwise be able to enter |
Phagocytosis | process that permits a cell to engulf or to surround any foreign material and digest it |
Pinocytosis | process by which extarcellular fluid is taken into the cell |
passive transport | movement of small molecules across membrane of a cell by diffusion |
diffusion | +to -; process in which solid particles in a fluid move from a higher concentration to lower, which an even distribution of particles in fluid |
Osmosis | - to +; the passage of wateracross a selectively permable membrane with water molecules going from the less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution |
Filtration | By force; the movement of water and particles through a membrane by force, only liquid can pass , solids too big |
4 Tissues | Epithelial;connective;muscles;nervous |
Tissues | protect, absorb, secret |
connective tissue | connects or joins, tissues or sstructures in the body |
Forms of connective tissues | areolar;adipose, fiborous, bone, cartilage,blood |
Muscles tissue | that contract in response to a message from the brain |
3 types of muscles tissue/cells | skeletal, cardiac,visceral |
nervous tissue | is to provide rapid communication between body structure and control of body function |
membrane | thin sheets of tissue that serve many function in the body |
Mucous membranes | secrete mucous(thick, slippery material) which keep membranes moist and soft and protects againt bacteria |
Serous Membranes | secrete thin, watery to prevent friction |
Connective tissue | tissue membrane that is smooth and slick and secrete synovial fluid |
Synovial fluid | slick , thick, colorless fluid that lubricates...hmmmm |
RIGHT hypochondriac | R lobe of liver;gallbladder |
Epigastric | R&L lower lobe of liver;large portin of stomach |
LEFT hypochondriac | Sm part of stomach;part of Lg. intestine |
RIGHT lumbar | parts of Lg and Sm intestine |
Umbilical | a portion of transvers colon & small loops of the Sm intestine |
LEFT lumbar | loops of Sm intestine and part of colon |
RIGHT illiac | Cecum and parts of small intestine |
Hypogastric | parts of Sm intestine, bladder apppendix |
LEFT iliac | Portion of the colon and small intestines |
Ventral cavity | thoracic and adodompelvic cavities |
