Exam one Study Guide: Basic Anatomy and Physiology Anatomy- the study of structure Subdivisions: -Gross (macroscopic) – visible to the naked eye, such as surface area, regional areas or anatomy systems -Microscopic – extremely small areas that usually need a microscope to be seen such as cytology (the study of the shape and function of plant or animal cells) or histology ( the study of the microscopic structure of tissue) -Developmental- compared to the evolutional study of something such as embryology ( the study of the development of an embryo) Physiology- the study of function at many different levels I.E. Such as the organ systems Subdivisions: -Is based on where an organ is placed within the body …show more content…
wrist muscle in forearm) - Also some people have extra pieces in their body (i.e. nerves) - May be asymptomatic (no problems) or symptomatic (problems) one being people having nerve problems Body Cavities: -Dorsal: Protects nervous system -Subdivisions: Cranial (brain) & Vertebral (Spinal Cord) -Ventral: Holds internal organs -Subdivisions: Thoracic (ribcage) & Abdominopelvic (Abdomen and pelvis) Serous Membrane: - Double layered membrane that is separated by fluid - Parietal: lines body walls -Visceral: lines internal organs Regions: Nine Regions: - Right Hypochondriac Region: Organs found in this region are
The function of the connective tissue is to support, bind, cover, protect and give structure to the body.
Compact bone contains Haversian Systems, which are in concentric circles called lamellae. Haversian system contains a blood supply and the periosteum is located on the outside
- Gross, or macroscopic, anatomy: Study of large body structures visible to the naked eye, such as the heart, lungs and kidneys.
My brain is filled with thoughts that race at a million miles an hour. I think about math equations and science experiments. I am constantly learning something and studying anatomy. My head is filled with memories, good and bad, that shape who I am. My heart is filled with passion about human anatomy and surgery. My heart doesn’t make a lot of my decisions as I try to be as level headed as possible however my heart still races when I solve a math problem or get to observe a surgery. I try my hardest in everything I do. I throw myself 100% into my work because I pride myself in getting good grades and pushing myself to be a better person every single day. I have rough days and good days but I still have to get myself out of bed every

P4- Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body.
As Jim’s muscles are at maximum demand, his mitochondria are unable to produce the needed ATP through aerobic respiration because oxygen is unable to diffuse fast enough into his muscle fibers. At this time anaerobic
Figure 8.1 Using Figure 8.1, match the following: 1) Periosteum. Answer: A Diff: 2 Page Ref: 251; Fig. 8.3 2) Articular cartilage. Answer: C Diff: 2 Page Ref: 251; Fig. 8.3 3) Joint (synovial) cavity. Answer: B Diff: 2 Page Ref: 251; Fig. 8.3 4) Synovial membrane. Answer: E Diff: 2 Page Ref: 251; Fig. 8.3
The concentration of dissolved substances is less in the extracellular fluid than in the cytoplasm. Hypotonic Solution Concentration of dissolved substances (solute) Concentration of water (solvent) What happens to an animal cells? Inside the cell Greater Less Outside the cell Less Greater Membrane
Have you ever wondered which body system helps bring oxygenated and deoxygenated blood to the heart? Well that system is called the Circulatory System or the Cardiovascular System. Have you ever wondered which body system helps bring air into the lungs? That system is called the Respiratory system. You are probably wondering why I am mentioning the Respiratory and Circulatory system? I am talking about them because, these are the two system that I am going to be comparing and contrasting in this essay.
All the systems in the human body are vital to our survival and well-being. If you take away the functions of just one of these systems our whole body will cease to work properly. The main systems of the human body are the nervous, endocrine respiratory, circulatory, immune, digestive, excretory, skeletal, muscular, and the reproductive systems. They all work together in harmony and unison to keep us alive.
If untreated, causes weaker muscles, loss of sensation, difficulty in walking and breathing, and more
The human muscular system is made up of over 600 connecting muscles. All of the muscles work together in sync to make your body move in inumerable different ways.
Define equilibrium potential: Equilibrium channels can be calculated using the Nernst Equation and the Goldman-Hodgkin-Katz equation. Equilibrium potentials are membrane potentials when an ion does not diffuse through the membrane. It is also associated with potassium leaving the cell through leak channels.
Resolution is the ability to image two separate objects and visually detect one from the other. Spatial resolution refers to the ability to image small objects that have high subject contrast, such as a bone-soft tissue interface, a breast microcalcification, or a calcified lung nodule, conventional radiography has excellent spatial resolution.
