| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| ANATOMY | STUDY OF THE STRUCTURE OF THE BODY |
| PHYSIOLOGY | STUDY OF HOW THE BODY FUNCTIONS |
| HOMEOSTASIS | STABLE STATE THAT THE BODY MAINTAINS IN RESPONSE TO CHANGES IN THE INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENT |
| FIRST LEVEL IS CHEMICAL LEVEL | THIS LEVEL DESCRIBES HOW ATOMS BEFORE MOLECULES |
| SECOND LEVEL IS CELL LEVEL | FIRST FUNCTIONAL LEVEL OF LIVING THINGS |
| THIRD LEVEL IS TISSUE LEVEL | STRUCTURAL LEVEL FORMED BY SIMILAR CELLS WORKING TOGETHER |
| FOURTH LEVEL IS ORGAN LEVEL | STRUCTURAL LEVEL FORMED BY TWO OR MORE TISSUES WORKING TOGETHER |
| FIFTH LEVEL IS SYSTEM LEVEL | GROUP OF ORGANS THAT PERFORM A COMMON FUNCTION |
| SIXTH LEVEL IS ORGANISM LEVEL | STRUCTURAL LEVEL FORMED BY TWO OR MORE SYSTEMS WORKING TOGETHER |
| INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM | EXTERNAL COVERING OF THE BODY COMPRISES SKIN HAIR GLANDS NERVE RECEPTORS SKIN PROTECTS CUSHIONS THE BODY REGULATES BODY TEMPERATURE |
| MUSCULAR SYSTEM | IS RESPONSIBLE FOR BODY MOVEMENT MUSCLES ARE MAIN STRUCTURE OF THIS SYSTEM INCLUDES TENDONS WHICH CONNECT THE MUSCLES TO THE BONE |
| SKELETAL SYSTEM | COMPRISES BONES CARTILAGE LIGAMENTS JOINTS BONES SUPPORT THE BODY AND HOLD IT UPRIGHT SYSTEM STORES MINERALS AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CREATION OF BLOOD CELLS |
| LYMPHATIC SYSTEM | CLEANSES THE BLOOD AND AIDS IN PROTECTION FROM FOREIGN SUBSTANCES SYSTEM INCLUDES THE LYMPH NODES THYMUS SPLEEN TONSILS AND OTHER RELATED TISSUES |
| CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM | RESPONSIBLE FOR PUMPING BLOOD THROUGHOUT THE BODY HEART IS THE ORGAN THAT ALONG WITH THE BLOOD VESSELS BRINGS OXYGEN NUTRIENTS TO THE CELLS |
| RESPIRATORY SYSTEM | PROVIDES GAS EXCHANGE FOR THE BODY IT CONSTANLY SUPPLIES OXYGEN TO THE CELLS REMOVES THE WASTE PRODUCT CARBON DIOXIDE INCLUDES NASAL ORAL PASSAGES LARYNX TRACHEA BRONCHI LUNGS |
| DIGESTIVE SYSTEM | BREAKS DOWN FOOD INTO NUTRIENTS THAT CAN BE ABSORBED USED BY THE BODY ESOPHAGUS STOMACH SMALL INTESTINE LARGE INTESTINE ARE ORGANS OF THIS SYSTEM |
| NERVOUS SYSTEM | CONDUCTS INTERPRETS SENSORY INFORMATION FROM INSIDE OUTSIDE THE BODY WHICH THEN RESPONDS AS NEEDED ORGANS OF SYSTEM BRAIN SPINAL CORD CONNECTING NERVES |
| URINARY SYSTEM | REMOVES LIQUID WASTE FROM BLOOD AND REGULATES BLOOD PRESSURE SYSTEM INCLUDES KIDNEYS BLADDER |
| ENDOCRINE SYSTEM | USES HORMONES TO CONTROL FUNCTIONS OF THE BODY INCLUDES THE PITUITARY GLAND THYROID GLAND OVARIES TESTES |
| REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM | PRODUCES CELLS THAT CARRY THE GENTIC MATERIAL FOR THE PURPOSE OF CREATING A NEW ORGANISM THIS INCLUDES OVARIES UTERUS IN THE FEMALE AND TESTES AND PENIS IN THE MALE |
| INFERIOR | AWAY FROM THE HEAD OR TOWARD THE LOWER PART OF A STRUCTURE THE INTESTINES ARE INFERIOR TO THE LUNGS |
| SUPERIOR | TOWARD THE HEAD OR UPPER PART OF A STRUCTURE THE HEART IS SUPERIOR TO THE STOMACH |
| ANTERIOR VENTRAL | TOWARD THE FRONT OF THE BODY THE EYES ARE LOCATED ON THE ANTERIOR SKULL |
| POSTERIOR DORSAL | TOWARD THE BACK OF THE BODY THE SPINE IS POSTERIOR TO THE UMBILICUS |
| DISTAL | FARTHER FROM THE ATTACHMENT OF A BODY PART THE FINGERS ARE DISTAL TO THE WRISTS |
| PROXIMAL | CLOSE TO THE ATTACHMENT OF A BODY PART THE THIGH BONE IS PROXIMAL TO THE HIP |
| MEDIAL | TOWARD THE MIDLINE OF THE BODY THE UMBILICUS IS FOUND AT THE MEDIAL ABDOMEN |
| LATERAL | AWAY FROM THE MIDLINE ON THE OUTER SIDE THE RIBS ARE LATERAL TO THE STERUM |
| SUPERFICIAL | TOWARD OR AT THE BODY SURFACE A PAPER CUT IS A SUPERFICIAL WOUND |
| DEEP | AWAY FROM THE BODY SURFACE A STAB WOUND IS A DEEP WOUND |
| SAGITTAL PLANE | RUNS VERTICALLY THROUGH THE BODY |
| MEDIAN OR MID SAGITTAL PLANE | DIVIDES THE BODY INTO EQUAL RIGHT AND LEFT HALVES |
| TRANSVERSE PLANE OR HORIZONTAL PLANE | SEPARATES THE BODY INTO SUPERIOR AND INFERIOR SECTIONS |
| FRONTAL PLANE OR CORONAL PLANE | DIVIDES THE BODY INTO ANTERIOR AND POSTERIOR SECTIONS |
| DORSAL CAVITY | CONTAINS TWO CAVITIES CRANIAL AND SPINAL |
| CRANIAL CAVITY | IS WITHIN THE SKULL CONTAINS THE BRAIN |
| SPINAL CAVITY | WITHIN THE SPINAL COLUMN AND CONTAINS THE SPINAL CORD |
| VENTRAL CAVITY | CONTAINS THREE CAVITIES |
| THORACIC CAVITY | CHEST IS LOCATED UNDER THE RIB CAGE AND ABOVE THE DIAPHRGAM |
| ABDOMINAL CAVITY | BELOW THE DIAPHGRAM AND UNDER ABDOMINAL MUSCLES |
| PELVIC CAVITY | SPACE WITHIN THE PELVIS |
| ABDOMINOPELVIC CAVITY | PELVIC AND ABDOMINAL CAVITIES NOT PHYSICALLY SEPARATED |
| UPPER RIGHT QUADRANT | CONTAINS THE LIVER AND PART OF THE SMALL AND LARGE INTESTINE |
| UPPER LEFT QUADRANT | CONTAINS THE STOMACH SPLEEN AND PORTIONS OF THE INTESTINES |
| LOWER RIGHT QUADRANT | CONTAINS THE SMALL AND LARGE INTESTINES AND THE APPENDIX |
| LOWER LEFT QUADRANT | CONTAINS A PORTION OF SMALL INTESTINE AND THE COLON |
| UMBILICAL REGION | MIDDLE SECTION COVERS THE UMBILICUS |
| EPIGASTRIC REGION | TOP MIDDLE REGION |
| HYPOCHONDRIAC REGION | TOP RIGHT REGION |
| HYPOCHONDRIAC REGION | TOP LEFT REGION |
| LUMBAR REGION | MIDDLE RIGHT REGION |
| LUMBAR REGION | MIDDLE LEFT REGION |
| ILIAC REGION | BOTTOM RIGHT REGION |
| HYPOGASTRIC REGION | BOTTOM MIDDLE REGION |
| ILIAC REGION | BOTTOM LEFT REGION |
| DORSAL RECUMBENT | PATIENTS LEGS ARE BENT AT THE KNEES AND FEET ARE RESTING ON THE TABLE GYNECOLOGICAL EXAMINATIONS |
| FOWLERS | PATIENT IS IN THE SITTING POSITION EXAMINATIONS OF THE HEAD NECK CHEST |
| LITHOTOMY | PATIENTS FEET ARE PLACED IN STIRRUPS GYNECOLOGICAL EXAMINATIONS AND PAP SMEARS |
| PRONE | PATIENT IS LYING FACE DOWNWARD GENERAL EXAMINATION OF THE DORSAL BODY |
| SIMS | PATIENT LIES ON THE LEFT SIDE WITH THE LEFT ARM BEHIND THE BODY AND THE RIGHT ARM AND RIGHT LEG ARE SHARPLY FLEXED ON THE TABLE COLONSCOPY OR RECTAL EXAMINATIONS |
| SUPINE | PATIENT IS LYING FACE UPWARD GENERAL EXAMINATIONS OF THE VENTRAL BODY |
| TRENDELENBURG | PATIENTS LEGS ARE RAISED ABOVE THE HEAD PATIENTS IN SHOCK |
| ANATOMICAL POSTION | FACE FRONT AND ARMS AT THE SIDES AND PALMS FACING FORWARD |
| ORGAN | STRUCTURAL LEVEL FORMED BY TWO OR MORE DIFFERENT TISSUES THAT PERFORM THE SAME FUNCTION |
| PLANE | IMAGINARY FLAT SURFACES THAT PASS THROUGH AN OBJECT |
| REGION | ONE OF NINE SECTIONS THAT DIVIDE THE ABDOMINAL CAVITY THIS TERM IS USED TO PROVIDE A MORE SPECIFIC LOCATION OF THE INTERNAL ORGANS |
