Study Guide
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Anatomy | Study of Internal and External Stuctures and their relationship |
| 4 Anatomy's | Gross, Regional, Systemic, Microscopic |
| Gross Anatomy | Study of structures that are visible |
| *Regional Anatomy* | Studying structures in each region. |
| *Systemic Anatomy* | Study of Organ System by Organ System |
| Microscopic Anatomy | Study of "micro" Organism. |
| Cytology | Cell Study |
| Histology | Tissue Study |
| Physiology | Function Study |
| 6 levels of Organization | Cells, Tissue, Organs, Organ Systems, and Organism |
| Smallest living Organism; 200 types | Cells |
| Tissue | Group of cells that perform part of the function |
| One or more tissues makes------ & performs "specific" function | Organs |
| Organ System | Multiple Organs Peforming "multiple" Function |
| All Organ System Function together to survive and Reproduce | Organism |
| Main Cells | Skin cells, Red Blood cells, Nerve cells, Muscle Cells |
| Function of Skin cells | Creates a barrier to protect you from bacteria and infections |
| Function of Red Blood cells | Carries Oxygen |
| Function of Nerve Cells vs Function of Muscle cells | (Nerve)Transmit signals Contracts and Gets Shorter(muscle) |
| Thoracic | Chest |
| Abdominal | Abdomen |
| Antebrachial | Forearm |
| Axillary | Armpit |
| Brachial | Arm |
| Carpal | Wrist |
| Cephalic | Head |
| Cervical | Neck |
| Crural | Leg |
| Femoral | Thigh |
| Gluteal | Butt |
| Inguinal | Groin |
| Lumbar | Loin |
| Manual | Hand |
| Patellar | Kneecap |
| Pedal | Foot |
| Pelvic | Pelvis |
| Pubic | Pubis |
| Sacral | Sacrum |
| Sural | Calf |
| Tarsal | Ankle |
| Superior | Towards the Head |
| Inferior | Towards the Feet |
| Medial | Towards the Midline of the body |
| Lateral | Away from the Midline |
| Proximal | Closer to the Point of Origin |
| Distal | Away from the Point of Origin |
| Anterior(Ventral) | Towards the Belly |
| Posterior(Dorsal) | Back |
| Superficial | the surface of the body Example: Ribs are Superficial to the Liver |
| Deep | away from surface |
| Transverse Plane | PLANE runs parallel to the ground and divides the body into superior and inferior portions. |
| Frontal Plane | (ant on a post)A vertical plane that divides the body or organ into anterior and posterior portions |
| Sagittal Plane | Cuts the body into Left and right sides |
| Mid Sagittal Plane | Exactly at the Midline; A Vertical Plane that divides the body into equal right and left sides |
| Para Sagittal Plane | A vertical plane that divides the body or organ into unequal right and left sides |
| Dorsal Body Cavity | (Doors- in-the- back) Subdivided into a cranial cavity (contains brain) and Vertebral cavity(contains Spinal Cord); Located near the Posterior surface of the body. (back) |
| Ventral Body Cavity | Located in the Anterior part of the body; Subdivided into Thoracic and AbdominoPelvic cavity by the diaphragm |
| What Makes Cavity? | Membranes |
| Organs inside the Ventral Cavity is called | Viscera |
| Thoracic Cavity | Surrounded by ribs and muscles of the chest; It is subdivided into Pleural Cavity and Mediastinum. |
| Pleural Cavity | 2 of them; contains lungs |
| Mediastinum | Not a cavity; It's a mass of tissue that extends from the sternum to Vertebral column; It contains the Pericardial Cavity; Also contains thymus, aorta and esophagus |
| Pericardial Cavity | Contains the heart |
| Visceral Pleura | Covers the wall of the Organ |
| Parietal Pleura | On the outisde |
| Cavity | Space between Visceral and Parietal Pleura |
