1st anatomy exam

anatomy

QuestionAnswer
what is the study of the structure of the body human anatomy
two types of microscopic anatomy cytology and histology
study of cells cytology
study of tissue histology
cytology is studied with what type of microscope? electron microscope
histology is studied with what type of microscope light microscope
name some subdivisions of gross anatomy surface, surgical, systemic, regional, embryology, pathologic, radiographic, developmental
why study anatomy the anatomy of body parts often suggests their functions
physiology study of functions
anatomy study of structure
anatomical levels of organization, in order cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism
basic unit of structure and function in living organisms cell
similar cells performing specialized functions tissues
four types of tissues epithelial, connective, nervous, muscular
different tissues organized into a structure to carry out functions organs
related organs working together organ systems
entire body organism
characteristics of all living organisms organization, metabolism, development, responsiveness, regulation, reproduction
chemical reactions in an organism, breaking down and building molecules metabolism
sensitivity and reaction to stimuli responsiveness
homeostasis regulation
the name given to the processes for maintaining a constant internal environment. homeostasis
relationship between anatomy and physiology Anatomy is the study of structure, and physiology is the study of the function of the structures.
types of structures a microscopic anatomist investigate A microscopic anatomist would investigate structures that cannot be seen by the unaided eye and therefore require magnification to be observed.
describe organization at the cellular level Cells are the smallest living things. They contain specialized structural and functional units called organelles. Variations in the structure and unique functions of cells reflect their specializations.
type of plane would separate the nose and mouth into superior and inferior structures A transverse (horizontal) plane would separate the nose and mouth into superior and inferior structures.

typical cells are how big 20-50 micron meters in diameter
general term for all cellular conents located between the plasma membrane and the nucleus cytoplasm
three basic constituents of a human cell plasma (cell) membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus
semipermeable membrane between interior of cell a extracellular (insterstitial) fluid plasma membrane (plasmalemma)
components of plasma membrane lipids, proteins, carbohydrates
semipermeable membrane between interior of cell a extracellular (insterstitial) fluid plasma membrane (plasmalemma)
components of plasma membrane lipids, proteins, carbohydrates
insoluble in water membrane lipids
uneven distribution of charge - one side is negative and one side is positive polar
part of phospholipid molecule that is water soluble polar phosphate head
water soluble hydrophilic
part of the phospholipid molecule that is water insoluble nonpolar lipid tail
water insoluble hydrophobic
term that itaya uses to encompass the head and tail of the phospholipid - amphipathic
what are the membrane proteins integral and peripheral
membrane proteins embedded within the phospholipid bilayer integral
membrane proteins on inner our outer membrane surface peripheral
types of transport across plasma membranes passive and active
doesn't require energy (atp), from high concentration to low passive
requires energy (atp), moves against concentration:low to high active
passive processes that move material across the plasma membrane include simple diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion
movement of high to low until equilibrium reached simple diffusion
diffusion of water osmosis
use of transporter proteins facilitated diffusion
cellular energy, adenosine triphosphate atp
active processes ion pumps, bulk transport
exocytosis and endocytosis bulk transport
excretion into extracellular fluid exocytosis
opposite of exocytosis, cell acquires materials from extracellular fluid endocytosis
