The correct sequence of levels forming the structural hierarchy is (a) organ, organ system, cellular, chemical, tissue, organismal; (b) chemical, cellular, tissue, organismal, organ, organ system; (c) chemical, cellular, tissue, organ, organ system, organismal; (d) organismal, organ system, organ, tissue, cellular, chemical.
In your opinion, what is the most important internal organ of the human body and why? Your explanation must indicate how the function or location of this organ is connected to other organs and systems in their function and importance.
Using the terms of position and direction, illustrate the various planes of the body. Your illustration should include the following terms: Cranial, Caudal, Ventral, Dorsal, Sagittal plane, Median section, Transverse section, Lateral and Frontal (coronal section).

- Please know the definition of anatomical positions. Also, if you can define how you can describe the location of tissue from the reference, it will be great. Such as your ear is distal from the nose. How about other parts of the body? Also, please know the body plane to explain each part of your body. Dorsal, ventral, inferior, superior, anterior, posterior, medial? Sagittal, coronal transverse sections?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements best describes homeostasis? a. Keeping the body in a fixed and unaltered state b. Dynamic equilibrium c. Maintaining a near-constant internal environment d. Altering the external environment to accommodate the body's needsarrow_forwardThe idea that the study of the human body can be most thoroughly understood through the principles of: complementarity of structure and function, hierarchy of structural organization, and homeostasis is the unifying theme of anatomy and physiology. In your own words, explain how these ideas tie together the anatomy and physiology disciplines. NOTE: there is not really a wrong answer here as long as you are thoughtful, nor do you need to write for pages and pages. Address each of the three areas with a brief definition in your own words, and then give a few sentences on how they are tied together.arrow_forward
