Question | Answer |
---|---|
Levels of Structural Organization | cell - tissue - organ - organ system - organism |
Integumentary System - Organs | Cutaneous Membranes (Epidermis, Dermis), Hair Follicles (Hair, Sebaceous Glands), Sweat Glands, Nails, Sensory Receptors, Subcutaneous Layer |
Cutaneous Membranes - Function | Cover surface, protect deeper tissue, nourish epidermis, provide strength, contains glands |
Hair Follicles - Function | Produce hair, provide some protection from head, Secrete lipid that lubricates hair shaft and epidermis |
Sweat Glands - Function | Perspiration for evaporative cooling |
Nails - Function | Protect & stiffen distal tips of digits |
Sensory Receptors - Function | Provide sensations of touch, pressure, temp, pain |
Subcutaneous Layer | Store lipids, attaches skin to deeper tissues |
Skeletal System - Organs | Bones, Cartilage, Joints, Bone Marrow |
Bones, Cartilage, Bone Marrow - Function | Support, protect soft tissues, bone stores minerals, primary site of blood cell production (red marrow), storage of energy reserves in fat cell (yellow marrow) |
Muscular System - Organs | Skeletal Muscles, Tendons, Aponeuroses |
Skeletal Muscles - Function | Provide movement, control entrances to digestive & respiratory systems, exits from digestive & urinary tracts, support skeleton, protect soft tissue |
Tendons, Aponeuroses - Function | Harness forces of contraction to perform specific tasks |
Nervous System - Organs | CNS (brain, spinal cord, special senses), PNS (peripheral nervous system); fast acting control system |
CNS - Function | Controls nervous system, process info, provide short term control over activities of other systems |
PNS - Function | Links CNS with other systems and with sense organs |
Endocrine System - Organs | Pineal Gland, Pituitary Gland, Thyroid Gland, Parathyroid Gland, Thymus, Adrenal Glands, Kidneys, Pancreas, Gonads (testes & overies) |
Endocrine System - Function | Slow acting control using hormones |
Cardiovascular System - Organs | Heart, Blood Vessels (Arteries, Capillaries, Veins), Blood |
Cardiovascular System - Function | Maintain BP, move blood, transport O2, CO2, Blood cells... to cells, temp regulation, permit diffusion, defense against disease |
Lymphatic System - Organs | Lymphatic Vessels, Lymph Nodes, Spleen, Thymus |
Lymphatic System - Function | Carry, moniter lymph, stimulate immune response, moniter circulating blood, engulf pathogens - recycle RBCs, controls development of T cells |
Respiratory System - Organs | Nasal Cavities, Paranasal Sinuses, Pharynx, Larynx, Trachea, Bronchi, Lungs (avioli) |
Respiratory System - Function | Exchange O2 & CO2, activate vitamin D |
Digestive System - Organs | Mouth, Salivary Glands, Pharynx, Esophagus, Stomach, Small Intestine, Liver, Gallbladder, Pancreas, Large Intestine |
Digestive System - Function | Digest food, absorb nutrients, remove waste |
Urinary System - Organs | Kidneys, Ureters, Urinary Bladder, Urethra |
Urinary Sytem - Function | filter blood, control BP, remove waste, control RBC production, control fluid levels, control pH, activate vitamin D |
Male Reproductive System - Organs | Testes, Accessory Organs (epididymis, ductius defferns, seminal vessicles, prostate gland, urethra), Penis, Scrotum |
Female Reproductive System - Organs | Ovaries, Uterine Tubes, Uterus, Vagina, Clitoris, Labia, Mammary Glands |
Cranium | Skull or Cranial |
Facies | Face or Facial |
Cephalon | Head, Cephalic - includes cranium & facies |

Mentis | chin or mental |
Axilla | armpit, axillary |
Brachium | arm, brachial |
Antecubitis | front of elbow |
Antebrachium | forearm |
Carpus | wrist |
Pollex | thumb |
Phalanges | fingers, digital |
Patella | kneecap |
Crus, Crural | leg |

Popliteus | back of knee |
Sura, Sural | Calf |
Calcaneus | heel of foot |
Planta, Plantar | sole of foot |
Cephalon, Cephalic | head |
Homeostasis | Internal environment has normal, healthy conditions = good health |
Negative Feedback | Decrease production - most body systems |
Positive Feedback | Increase production - ex. blood clotting and childbirth |
Anterior | Front |
Ventral | Belly side = anterior |
Posterior | The back, behind |
Dorsal | The back = posterior |
Cranial | Toward the head |
Cephalic | Toward the head |
Superior | Above; at a higher level; toward the head |
Caudal | Toward the tail (coccyx) |
Inferior | Below; at the lower level; toward the feel |
Medial | Toward the midline |
Lateral | Away from the midline |
Proximal | Toward the attached base |
Distal | Away from an attached base |
Superficial | At, near, or relatively close to the body surface |
Deep | Toward the interior of the body; farther from the surface |
Transverse, Horizontal, Cross Sectional | Separates into superior and inferior portions ie. MRI, CT Scans |
Sagittal | Right and Left portions |
Midsagittal | Separate into EQUAL right and left portions |
