Anatomy and Physiology I
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Anatomy | The science or the biological study of the shape and structure of organisms and their pars, molecules, cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems |
| Gross Anatomy | The biological study of the organs parts and structures that are visible to the naked eye. |
| Physiology | The biological study and science of the functions of living organisms and their parts, molecules, cells, tissues, organs and organ systems. |
| Cell | The smallest structural unit f an organism that is capable of independent functioning, consisting of one or more nuclei, cytoplasm, and various organelles, all surrounded by a semipermeable cell membrane. |
| Cell physiology | The biological study of the functions of living cells, the functions of their organelles and all biochemical aspects of cell metabolism. |
| Tissue | An organized collection of two or more different cell types and associated intercellular matrix action together to perform one or more specific functions in the body. |
| Name two basic types of tissues | Epithelial and connective |
| Name five specific types of tissues | epidermal, bone, muscle, gland, nervous. |
| Cytology | the branch of biology that deals with formation, structure and function of cells, with an emphasis on the internal appearance and structure of cells and their organelles, especially the nucleus; |
| What branch of study is applied to detect cancer cells? | cytology |
| Histology=microscopic=microanatomy | The anatomical study of microscopic structure of animal and plant tissues with emphasis on which cellular and intercellulaar structures distinguish one tissue from another; |
| organ | a differentiated part of an organism, compromised of two or more tissues that performs a specific function. |
| Regional anatomy | the study of the organs parts, structures of a specific region of the body. (e.g cranial anatomy, anatomy of the hand etc.) |
| Organ system | a group of interacting, interrelated, or interdependent organs forming a complex functional whole; the set of organs of the body regarded as a functional physiological unit. |
| Systemic anatomy | The study of the structure and location of the body parts, system by system; the study of specific organs, parts, and structures of a specific organ system of the body (nervous system anatomy, reproductive anatomy, skeletal anatomy) |
