Abduction

Movement away from the midline of the body

Adduction

A collection of chemicals, the basic units of structure and function in living things.

Cheek

A buccal swab is when you swab your...

Circumduction

Movement of a distal end of a body part in a circle

Clavicle

Collagen Fibers

The most abundant type of protein in your body is:

Connective Tissue

Protects and supports the body and its organs, binds organs together, stores energy reserves as fat, and provides immunity

Coronal

This type of section divides the body or a body part into anterior and posterior portions.

Cranial Cavity

Contains brain

Deep

Further from the surface

Depression

Downward movement of a body part

Dermal Papillae

Fingerprints are produced by

Diaphragm

Separates thoracic and abdominal cavities

Distal

Further from the attachment point

Distal

The hand is \______ to the wrist?

Elevation

Upward movement of a body part

Epithelial Tissue

Covers body surfaces; lines body cavities, hollow organs, and ducts (tubes); and forms glands

Epithelial, Connective, Muscular, Nervous

What are the four major types of tissues?

Femur

Fibula

Frontal

Gliding Joint

Wrist

Heart, veins + arteries

Cardiovascular

Hinge Joint

Elbow and knee

Humerus

Hyperextension

Beyond the plane of extension

Inferior

Farther from the head

Inferior

Your chin is \______ in relation to your lips

Ipsilateral

On the same side

Ipsilateral

The appendix and the liver are considered:

Kidney, Urethra

Urinary

Lateral

Away from the midline

Lateral

The right ear is \______ to the right nostril

Left and right portions of the body

Making a sagittal section results in a separation of

Lungs, Nose

Respiratory

Lymph nodes, tonsils

Lymphatic

Malignant Melanomas

Account for over 75 percent of all skin cancers

Mandible

Medial

Closer to the middle

Mediastinum

Region between the lungs, from the breastbone to the backbone

Metacarpals

Metatarsals

Muscles

Muscular

Negative Feedback Loop

Brings conditions back to normal. Body temp: When the body is too hot you begin to sweat and vasodilation occurs. When the body is too cold you shiver and vasoconstriction occurs.

Organ

A collection of tissues grouped together to perform a specific function(s)

Organism

A collection of systems, a living

Pancreas/Adrenal Glands

Endocrine

Patella

Pelvic Cavity

Contains urinary bladder and reproductive organs

Pelvis

Pericardial Cavity

Cavity that contains heart

Phalanges (Foot)

Phalanges (Hand)

Pivot Joint

Neck

Pleural cavity

Contains lungs

Positive Feedback Loop

Causes conditions to go away from normal. When you cut your leg off, your body begins pumping more blood to the site to try and get blood to the cut off leg to compensate for blood loss. Instead, you wind up bleeding out the excess blood as well and could potentially die.

Posterior

Back side

Pronation

Turning the palm so it faces downward or backward

Proximal

Moving along the surface of the skin from the wrist toward the elbow is an example of moving in a \______ direction

Proximal

Nearer to the attachment point

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium

Even though all the cells are attached to the basement membrane in a single layer, some cells do not reach the free surface. These features give the false impression of a multilayered tissue

Pseudostratified Columnar Epithelium

The epithelium found in the trachea

Retraction

Movement of the mandible or shoulder backward

Ribs

Rotation

Movement of a bone around its own axis

Saddle Joint

Thumb

Scapula

Simple Columnar Epithelium

In side view, the single layer of cells appears rectangular

Simple Cuboidal Epithelium

Important in the secretion of substances, such as tears and saliva, and in absorption, such as the reabsorption of water by kidney cells

Simple Squamous Epithelium

Flat, single layer of cells allows for the diffusion of respiratory gases in the lungs

Skin, sebaceous glands

Integumentary

Sternum

Stomach, Intestines

Digestive

Stratified Squamous Epithelium

Exists in two forms: keratinized and nonkeratinized

Stratified Squamous Epithelium

The cells are flat near the surface, in the deep layers, cells vary in shape from cuboidal to columnar

Stratum Basale/Germinativum

Also contains Merkel cells that are sensitive to touch

Stratum Basale/Germinativum

Contains cells that are capable of continued cell division

Stratum Corneum

Consists of about 30 rows of flat, dead cells completely filled with keratin

Stratum Granulosum

Consists of about 5 rows of flattened cells with darkly staining granules

Stratum Lucidum

It consists of about five rows of clear, flat, dead cells
