Q

Levels of organization

A

1) Chemical – atoms, molecules – units of matter – part of a reaction
2) Cellular – basic structure and functional units
3) Tissue – a group of specialized cells with a specific function
4) Organs – structure made of 2+ tissues – specific function
5) Organ System – group of organs – common function
6) Organism – systems working together – provide life to independent organism

Q

Feedback System - parts

A

1) Receptor - Detect stimulus and relay info to central control
2) Control center - process info and creates appropriate response
3) Effector – acts out response

17
Q

Negative Feedback

A

Negative feedback – response reverses – cooling body by sweating

18
Q

Positive Feedback

A

Positive feedback – response enhances stim – child birth

19
Q

Integumentary

A

Integumentary – hair, skin, nails
o Encloses internal structures
o Site of sensory receptors

20
Q

Skeletal

A

Skeletal – cartilage, bones, and joints
o Supports
o Enables movement with muscles

21
Q

Muscular

A

Muscular – skeletal muscles and tendons
o Enables movement
o Helps maintain temp

22
Q

Nervous

A

Nervous – Brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves
o Detects and processes sensory info
o Activates responses

23
Q

Endocrine

A

Endocrine – pituitary and thyroid glands, pancreas, adrenals, testes, and ovaries
o Secretes hormones
o Regulates body processes

24
Q

Cardiovascular

A

Cardiovascular – Heart and blood vessels
o Delivers O2 and nutrients to tissues
o Equalizes temp
o Takes waste and C02 away from tissues

25
Lymphatic
Lymphatic – Thymus, lymph nodes, spleen, and lymphatic vessels o Returns fluid to blood o Defends against pathogens o Healing responses
26
Respiratory
Respiratory – Lungs, nasal passage, trachea o Removes C02 o Delivers O2
27
Digestive
Digestive – stomach, liver, gall bladder, large intestine, and small intestine o Breaks down food to molecular sizes so body can use for energy o Removes waste
28
Urinary
Urinary – kidneys and urinary bladder o Controls water balance o Removes waste from blood
29
Male Repro
Male Repo – epididymis and testes o Produces sex hormones and gametes o Delivers to female
30
Female Repo
Female Repo – mammary glands, ovaries, uterus o Produces sex hormones and gametes o Supports embryo till birth o Produces milk for infant
31
Planes
midsagittal or medial frontal – separate anterior and posterior transverse – cross section – horizontal
32
Direction Terms Dorsal Medial Lateral Ventral Inferior Proximal Distal
Dorsal – towards back Superior – above Medial – towards middle Lateral – away from middle Ventral – towards front Inferior – below Proximal – towards top Distal - towards end
33

34
Ventral Cavity
divided by diaphragm upper thoracic Abdominopelvic
35
Upper Thoracic
Pleural X 2 - encloses lungs Mediastinum - from sternum to vertebral Pericardial cavity - surrounds heart
36
