CHARACTERS OF LIVING ORGANISMS
R,G,R,M,M
Responsiveness - Reaction in an organ or tissue
Growth - Cells grow
Reproduce - Organisms reproduce
Movement - Internal and External
Metabolism - Chemical reactions to provide energy
ANATOMY
THE 2 TYPES OF ANATOMY
Study of structures and relationship the body
GROSS - Large structures that are visible to the naked eye
MICROSCOPIC - Study of cells and tissues
PHYSIOLOGY & PATHOLOGY
Physiology - Study of function and living organisms
Pathology - Disease/disorder of living organisms
LEVELS OF ORGANISMS
Chemicals, cells, Tissue, organs, organ systems, organisms
INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM
Protects the body from various kinds of damage
Consists of the skin, hair, nails, and various glands
SKELETAL SYSTEM
&
FUNCTIONS
Bones
Axial Skeleton- forms central axis of the body
Appendicular skeleton - Bones in the arms and leg
Provide support, protects tissues and forms blood cells
MUSCULAR SYSTEM
&
FUNCTIONS
Muscle tissue, Help body move
Protection and support for other tissue
NERVOUS SYSTEM
&
FUNCTIONS
Nerve tissue, help you receive and send signals to your brain and throughout your body
Central (brain and spinal cord)
Peripheral (everything branching off of Central)
ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
Hormones, different reactions in your body
Directs long-term changes in activities of other organ systems
CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM
Moving of blood and other fluids around your body
Transport cells and dissolved materials (nutrients, wastes, oxygen and carbon dioxide)
LYMPHATIC SYSTEM
Helps regulate fluid around your body and distribute B and T cells
Helps part of your immune system
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
Lungs, breathing. Delivers air to sites in the lungs
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
Processes food and absorbs nutrients
URINARY SYSTEM
Excretes waste products from the blood. Fluid waste
REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
Sex organs within an organism which worked together for the purpose of sexual reproduction
HOMEOSTASIS
IMPORTANT TO KEEP THESE STABLE
Stable internal environment
Temperature Blood pressure pH level Heart rate Metabolism
HOMEOSTATIC REGULATION
Stimulus -> Receptor -> Control -> Effector -> Effect
EXAMPLE OF POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
POSITIVE - Something increases and continues to increase. (Stays the same) (Contractions)
NEGATIVE - Heart rate is too high something with her to lower it (Opposite)
SUPINE AND PRONE
SUPINE - Face up, laying on back
PRONE - Face down, laying on stomach
FIVE MAJOR BODY PARTS
Head Neck Trunk (chest,back) Superior limbs (Arms) Inferior limbs (Legs)
ANATOMIC LANDMARKS - ANTERIOR
FACE
