54
Common features of cells:
Fundamental unit of all living things; smallest structure of body that has all properties of being
alive:
- responds to stimuli
- engages in metabolic activities
- reproduces itself
55
Histology:
Study of tissue
56
Muscle Tissue:
produces movement through contraction or shortening lenght
- Has muscle fibers
- skeletal (on bone)
- Smooth (internal organs, intestine, uterus)
- Cardiac (in heart)
57
Epithelial Tissue:
-AKA epithelium
- found throughout body. covering and lining of body stuctures
ex. lining of stomach, top layer of skin
58
Connective Tissue:
-Supporting and protecting tissue
- Many functions, depends on location
- Bone: structural supp for all body
- Cartilage: shock absorber joints
tendons, adipose:padding
59
Nervous Tissue:
composed of neurons
- Forms brain, spinal cord
- Electrical impulses, sends info brain and rest of body
60
Organs
Composed of different types of tissue that work as a unit to perform special functions.
Ex. stomach has smooth muscle, nervous and epithelial tissue.
61
Systems:
Composed of several organs working in coordinated manner to perform functions
Ex. digestive. From oral cavity to colon
62
Integumentary:
(Dermatology)
- Skin, nails, hair, sweat and sebaceous glands.
Protective barrier that regulates temp
63
Musculoskeletal
(Orthopedics)
- joints. muscles
-Protects body, muscle produce movement
64
Cardiovascular
(Cardiology)
- Heart, arteries, vein
- pumps blood thru out body
65
Hematic system
(Hematology)
-plasma, platelets, erythrocytes, leukocytes
- Transport oxygen
66
Lymphatic
(Immunology)
Lymph nodes, vessels, Spleen, thymus
- protects body from disease
67
Respiratory
( Pulmonology)
Nasal cavity, trachea, lungs, larynx
- obtains oxygen, removes CO2
68
Gastrointestinal or Digestive
(Gastroenterology)
Oral cavity, pharynx, stomach, small intestine, colon
- Ingests, digests and absorbs nutrients
69
Urinary
(nephrology)
kidney, pancreas, ureter bladder
- filters waste products from blood
70
Female reproductive
(Gynecology)
Ovary, uterus, vagina, beasts
- Produces eggs, place for growing baby
71
Male Reproductive
( urology)
Testes, penis, prostate
- produces sperm
72
Endocrine
( Endocrinology)
Pituitary, pineal, thyroid glands.
- Regulate metabolic activities in body
73
Nervous
(neurology)
Spinal cord, nerves, brain
- Receives sensory information and coordinates body's response
74
Special senses
(Ophthalmology)
eye
- vision
75
Otorhinolaryngology
ear
- Hearing and balance
76
Anatomical position
Describes positions in human body
- Standing erect with arms on the side of body, palms of hands facing forward
77
Sagittal plane:
(median plane, right in middle)
Vertical plane.
- Runs lenghtwise, front to back
- Divides in left and right sides; don't have to be equal
78
Frontal plane:
(coronal plane)
Vertical plane.
- runs lengthwise side to side.
- cuts body in front and back portions
79
Transverse plane:
(horizontal plane)
Horizontal
- cuts body in upper and lower
- view inside of body
