Animal Body 1

Bio 3 Lecture 5

QuestionAnswer
What is anatomy? The study of the structure and shape of the body and body parts and their relationships to one another
What is physiology? Science that studies body functions
What are examples of physiology? Neurophysiology explains the workings of the nervous system and cardiac physiology studies the function of the heart
What is the relationship between anatomy and physiology? Structures determines what function can take place.
Give an examples of the relationship between anatomy and physiology Ingestion: We can ingest because we have a mouth and we have a digestive tube. The oral cavity allows for digestion to happen.
Give an examples of the relationship between anatomy and physiology Webbed feet in frogs and ducks: swimming aids. Elbow joint allows movement in one plane (forearm moves toward or away from shoulder)
Anatomical structures impose.. functional
What is the difference between macroscopic anatomy and microscopic? Macro is big and micro is small
Cells are the... All organism are... basic unit of life, made up of cells
Cell are enclosed by what? the plasma membrane
What are the 4 levels of organization in the animal body? Cells, tissues, organs, organ systems
What are organs? Combination of different tissues that form a structural and functional unit
What are organ systems? Groups of organs that cooperate to perform the major activities of the body
How many principal organ system does the vertebrate body contain? 11: Nervous, endocrine, skeletal, muscular, digestive, circulatory, lymphatic and reproductive
What are the 2 organ systems that deal with communication and integration? What's their role The nervous and endocrine systems. The 2 organ systems detect external stimuli and coordinate the body's response
What are the organ systems that deal with support and movement? Muscular and skeletal systems
What are the organ systems that deal with regulation and maintenance? Role? Digestive, circulatory, respiratory, and urinary system. The 4 organ systems regulate and maintain the body's chemistry
What are the organ systems that deal with defence? Integumentary (includes skin) and immune system. The body defends itself
What is the 1st barrier? The skin
What are the organ systems that deal with reproduction and development? Role, male and female. Role: The biological continuity of vertebrates. In females, the system also nurtures the developping embryo and fetus. Its the reproductive system (male and female)
What are body cavities? Spaces whithin the body that are closed to the outside and contain the internal organs
What are called the internal organs that are partially or completely closed by body cavities? They're called viscera or visceral organs
Do viscera float? No, they remain connected to the rest of the body
What are the 2 major hollow areas? The ventral cavity and the dorsal cavity
What are the subdivision of the ventral cavity? The thoracic cavity and the abdominopelvic cavity
What is the diagphragm? It's the muscular sheet that separates the thoracic cavity from the abdominopelvic cavity.
What are the subdivision of the thoracic cavity? There's the mediastinum and the pleural cavity. The medistinum cavity includes the pericardial cavity (heart), trachea, esophagus, nerves, ect. The pleural cavity has the right pleural cavity ( right lung) and the left pleural cavity (left lung)
Identify the thoracic cavities see slide 20 21
What are the subdivisions of the abdominopelvic cavity? There's the abdominal cavity and the pelvic cavity. Abdominal (upper portion) contains liver, stomach, kidneys, intestines, ect. Pelvic (lower portion) contains bladder, reproductive organs, and part of the large intestine.
What are the subdivisions of the dorsal cavity? The cranial cavity and the spinal cavity (vertebral). The cranial is within the skull, houses the brain. The spinal is within the vertebral column, and houses the spinal cord.
What are planes? in bio lol vroum vroum Lines of orientation along which cuts or sections can be made to divide the body, or a body part, into smaller pieces.
What are the 3 major planes that lie at right angles to eachother? Sagittal plane, Frontal plane and transverse plane
What is the sagittal plane? Vertical plane that divides the body into right and left parts. It runs front to back
What is it called if in divides the body or part into symmetrcial right and left halves? Plane is called midsagittal or median sagittal
What is the frontal plane? Vertical plane that divides the body into anterior and posterior protions.
What is the transverse (horizontal) plane? Horixontal plane that runs from left to right dividing the body or part into superior and inferior parts.
Identify all the cavities
