QuestionAnswer
Coronal Divides the front and back parts of a body or organ. Any view taken from the front or back.
Sagittal Divides the left and right sides of a body or organ. Any view taken from the side.
Transverse Divides the body into top and bottom. Any view taken looking upward or downward.
Dorsal Toward the backbone.
Ventral Toward the belly.
Anterior Toward the nose.
Posterior Away from the nose.
Superior Toward the head.
Inferior Toward the tail.
Rostral Toward the head.
Caudal Toward the tail.
Medial Any part which is closer to the center of the relevant area.
Distal Anything farther from the center of the relevant area.
Lateral Anything farther from the center of the relevant area.
Anatomy Structure of an organism.
Physiology Function of the living organism and its components.
Applied anatomy (Clinical anatomy) Application of anatomy in the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
Descriptive anatomy (Systematic anatomy) Relates individual parts of the body to functional systems without reference to the disease conditions.
Gross anatomy Studies body parts without a microscope
Microscopic anatomy Studies body parts with a microscope
Surface anatomy Study of the form and structure of the surface of the body, especially in reference to the organs beneath the surface.
Developmental anatomy Studies growth and development to birth
Pathological anatomy Studies changes in the body due to the disease.
Comparative anatomy Study of homologous structures within animals.
Electrophysiological Relating to the electrical activity of cells.
Evoked auditory potentials Auditory stimuli.
Respiratory physiology Concerned with all processes involved in breathing.
Cytology Examines cell structure and function
Histology Studies tissues with a microscope
Osteology Studies bone structure and function
Arthrology Studies joints
Angiography Studies blood vessels and lymphatic system
Neurology Studies the nervous system
Myology Studies muscle structure and function
Dorsal trunk Known as "the back"
Pelvis Formed by the hip bones
Trunk Thorax and abdomen to which the legs, arms, and head are attached to.
Caput Head or skull
Cranial portion The part of the skull that contains the brain and its components.
Facial portion The part of the skull that contains the mouth, pharynx, nasal cavity, and teeth.
Cranial cavity Brain and spinal cord
Thoracic cavity Lungs and related structures
Pericardial cavity Heart
Abdominal cavity Digestive organs
Anatomical position Body is erect; palms, arms, and hands face forward
Axis The imaginary midline around which the body pivots.
Axial skeleton The head and trunk; spinal cord is axis.
Appendicular skeleton Lower and upper limbs
Superficial A structure confined to the surface.
Peripheral Something closer to the surface than something else.
Deep Something farther away from the surface than something else.
Prone (On the belly) Body horizontal with face down
Supine (On the back) Body horizontal with face up
Lateral The side
Proximal Point closest to the trunk
Distal Point farthest from the trunk; Away from the midline
Medial Toward the midline
Flexion Bending at a joint
Extension Straightening out a joint
Plantar Sole of the foot
Palmar Palm of hand
Epithelial Tissue Covers surfaces of the body; covers linings of cavities and passageways; acts as a barrier against infectious diseases; prevents dehyrdration and fluid loss.
Connective Tissue Binds together and supports tissues and organs; may be solid, liquid, or gel-like
Areolar tissue Connective tissue; supportive in nature; adipose and lymphoid tissue
Fibrous tissue Connective tissue; binds structures together
Cartilage Connective tisse; hyaline, fibro-cartilage, yellow (elastic) cartilage
Blood Connective tissue; plasma and blood cells
Bone Hardest form of connective tissue
Muscular tissue Contractile tissue
Voluntary striated muscle (skeletal muscle) Can be moved in response to conscious processes. Striped appearance.
Involuntary smooth muscle Found in the digestive tract and blood vessels. Sheetlike appearance.
Cardiac muscle Outside of voluntary control; netlike appearance
Nervous tissue Specialized for communication; consists of neurons or nerve cells; functions to transfer information
Organ Body tissues combined together to perform a special function
Organ tissues All serve the same general purpose
Fascia Tissue aggregatate; membrane that surrounds organs
Ligaments Tissue aggregatate; fibrous tissue that connects bones or cartilage
Tendons Tissue aggregatate; connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone or cartilage
Diarthrodial (Synovial) joints Highly mobile; joint cavities contain lubricating synovial fluid; inclues plane (gliding) joints, ball-and-socket joints, and hinge joints
Amthiarthodial (Cartilaginous) joints Slightly mobile; cartilage forms union between two joints
Synarthrodial (fibrous) joints Immobile; bound by fibrous ligaments; sutures, located between bones of the skull joints
Muscle Aggregares of contractive muscle fibers with a common function; can shorten to about half of their length
Origin The muscle's point of attachment of the least mobile element
Insertion The point of attachment that moves when a muscle contracts
Agonists Muscles that move structures
Antagonists Muscles that oppose contraction of agonists
Synergists Muscles that stabilize structures
Muscle Innervation Muscles are innervated by a single nerve; can be sensory (afferent) or excitory (efferent)
Motor unit Consists of one efferent nerve fiber and the muscle fiber it innervates
Systems Groups of organs that perform a specific function; failure or an organ causes functional disorders; organs can be part of more than one system
Muscular system Smooth, straight, cardiac muscle
Skeletal system Bones and cartilages
Respiratory system Oral, nasal, and pharyngeal cavities, trachea and bronchial passageway, and lungs
Digestive system Oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, liver, intestines, and glands
Reproductive system Ovaries and testes
Urinary system Kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra
Endocrine system Glands that produce hormones
Nervous system Nerve tissue and central and peripheral nervous systems structures
Respiratory system (in Speech Pathology) Involves respiration
Phonatory system (in Speech Pathology) Produces voiced sound
Articulatory/Respnatory System (in Speech Pathology) Shapes the oral cavity for production of sounds of speech
Nervous system (in Speech Pathology) Controls speech processes
Systems of speech Speech requires the integrates action of Respiratory, Phonatory, Articulatory/Resonatory, and Nervous systems

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
