Q

subdivisions of anatomy

surface anatomy

A

looking at marking on the body to visualize

internal anatomy or structures are looking like

we can also use touch

as a method to visualise structures

that are internal to the body

*no disection involved in surface anatomy

Q

subdivisions of anatomy

gross anatomy

*can be studied by 2 general approaches

systemic approch:

(systemic anatomy)

A

systemic approach :

concider the whole body systems

(ie) cardiovascular system, or the muscular system, skeletal system

*does involve dissection

17
Q

subdivisions of anatomy

gross anatomy

*can be studied by 2 general approaches

regional approach:

(regional anatomy)

A

looking at a specific

region of the body

(rather than looking at at the various systems involved

this in contrast is)

restricted to a particular region in the body

(ie) the head, chest etc.

*does involve dissection

18
Q

subdivisions of anatomy

other subdivisions

of the study of anatomy

(4)

(these specialised areas which focus in on certain aspects of the anatomy)

A
  • histology
  • cytology
  • pathology
  • embryology
19
Q

<strong>1st </strong>level of organisation

chemical level

A

atoms

(C, H, O, N, P)

group together to

form a very important molecule called

DNA

20
Q

<strong>1st</strong> level of organisation

chemical level

atoms that make up DNA

A
  • C carbon
  • H hydrogen
  • O oxygen
  • N nitrogen
  • P phosophorus
21
Q

between<strong> 1st chemical and 2nd cellular</strong> level

DNA is the molecule that carries our _ _ or _

A

genetic material

or

code

22
Q

<strong>2nd</strong> level of organsation

Cellular level

The genetic material of DNA is stored in

A

a cellular structure known as

the nucleus

(which occurs within each cell of our body)

23
Q

<strong>3rd</strong> level of organisation

tissue level

from the cellular level how are tissues formed?

A

cells group together

with similar structure and function

and

form tissues

24
Q

<strong> 4th</strong> level of organisation

organ level

from the tissue level, ​how are organs formed?

A

tissues that are similar in

function and structure

group together to

form organs

25
5th level of organisation ## Footnote **system level**
where various organs make up a particular system in the body (ie. the digestive system)
26
6th level of organisation (final, highest level of organisation) **organismal level** **(human organism)**
when all the various body systems are put together
27
11 organ systems
**muscular system** * skeletal muscles * tendons
28
11 organ systems
**reproductive system**
29
11 organ systems
**lymphatic system** (green vessels are our lymphnodes \*important to assist our immunity)
30
11 organ systems
**respiratory system**
31
11 organ systems
**integumentary system**
32
11 organ systems
**nervous system** | (yellow lines are nerve tracks)
33
11 organ systems
**skeletal system** | (all the bones and joints)
34
11 organ systems
**urinary system** (\*important for a range of functions incl. ph of our blood, excreating urea among other functions)
35
11 organ systems
**digestive system**
36
11 organ systems
**endocrine system** | (what helps control our hormones)
37
11 organ systems
**cardiovascular system** (*works closely* with our _respitory system_ to deliver oxygen to all the tissues, via cells within the blood, also with our _lymphatic system_ in fighting infections, immunity and delivering immune cells to injured tissues, or tissue that have pathogens invading them)
