What is anatomy
The study of the structure and its relationships between body parts
What is Physiology
The science of how those parts come together to function, and keep that body alive
What is “ Gross Anatomy”
Large, Visible with the naked eye
What is Microscopic Anatomy?
The structure are so small you need microscope to see
How does Anatomy and Physiology work together
Structures have a specific shape to perform a specific function
List the level of organization in order from least complex to greatest
Chemical (smallest, or least complex), Cellular, Tissue, Organ, Organ System, Organism
Identify the 4 types of tissues
Epithelial, Connective, Muscle, and Nervous
Identify the 11 Organ System
Integumentary System, Skeletal System, Muscular System, Nervous System, Endocrine System, Cardiovascular System, Lymphatic System, Respiratory System, Digestive System, Urinary System, Male Reproductive/Female Reproductive System
Functions of Integumentary System
Protects your body, Keeps you from drying out, Helps you feel things, Controls your temperature, Heals cuts and scrapes, Makes hair and nails
What are the functions of the Skeletal System
Support the body, enable movement,
What are the functions of the Muscular System?
Enable movement
What are the functions of the Nervous System
Detects and processes sensory information
What are the functions of the Endocrine System
Secretes hormones to help your body grow, feel emotions, controls things like hunger and sleep.
What are the functions of the Cardiovascular System
Delivers oxygen and nutrients to tissues, Moves Blood Everywhere!
What are the functions of the Lymphatic system
Returns fluid to blood, Fights germs
What are the functions of the Respiratory System
Removes carbon dioxide from the body, Helps you breathe!
What are the functions of the Digestive System
Process food for use by the body
What are the functions of the Urinary System
Gets rid of waste, Kidneys clean your blood and make pee to remove water and waste from your body
What are the functions of the Reproductive System
Helps create new life, allows grown people to have babies
List the functions of living organisms
Metabolism, Responsiveness, Growth & Development, Reproduction, Movement and Locomotion
What are the requirements for life
Oxygen, Nutrients, Narrow range of body temperature, Narrow range of atmosphere pressure
What is Homeostasis
Maintaining a stable internal environment
What 3 components are needed for homeostasis regulation
Receptor, Control Center, Effector
What happens during a positive feedback loop
Intensifies the change, Like child birth
What happens during a negative feedback loop
A negative feedback loop is like a thermostat in your house- it helps keep things balanced in your body. When something changes too much your body fixes it and brings it back to normal.
