Human Physiology Lecturer: Dr. Twana A. Mustafa Lec-1 Introduction

Introduction to the Human Body Anatomy “tome” means to cut in Greek Describes the structures of the body: what they are made of where they are located associated structures Physiology Is the study of: functions of anatomical structures, both individual and cooperative

Gross Anatomy Structures large enough that one can see with the unaided eye Surface Anatomy - study of superficial markings Regional Anatomy - The study of specific areas of the body (e.g. head, trunk) Systemic Anatomy - Study of the 11* specific organ systems

11 Organ systems Integumentary* Nervous* Skeletal* Endocrine Muscular* Cardiovascular Lymphatic Urinary Respiratory Reproductive Digestive

Microscopic Anatomy Cf. Gross anatomy Involves studying anatomical structures that cannot be seen with the unaided eye 1. Cytology - cells 2. Histology - tissue Anatomical Organization We will start from the smallest and finish with the largest

Physiology = Function Considers the operation of specific organ systems Renal – kidney function Neurophysiology – workings of the nervous system Cardiovascular – operation of the heart and blood vessels Focuses on the functions of the body, often at the cellular or molecular level

Levels of Organization Chemical Level: - atoms (e.g. carbon) combine to form molecules (e.g. glucose) Cellular level: Smallest living units in organisms Cells contain organelles, each with a function Tissue level - different groups of cells that perform a function Organ Level - Different types of tissues that perform a common function Organ system – consists of different organs that work closely together

Smooth muscle cell Molecules Atoms Smooth muscle tissue Epithelial tissue Heart Blood vessels Smooth muscle tissue Connective tissue Blood vessel (organ) Cardiovascular system Cellular level Cells are made up of molecules. Tissue level Tissues consist of similar types of cells. Organ level Organs are made up of different types of tissues. Organ system level Organ systems consist of different organs that work together closely. Organismal level The human organism is made up of many organ systems. Chemical level Atoms combine to form molecules. Levels of Structural Organization Figure 1.1

Homeostasis Homeostasis: ability to maintain a relatively stable internal environment in an ever- changing outside world All body systems working together to maintain a stable internal environment, respond to external and internal changes to function within a normal range (body temperature, fluid balance) The internal environment of the body is in a dynamic state of equilibrium Failure to function within a normal range results in disease

Homeostatic Control Mechanisms Variables produce a change in the body The three interdependent components of control mechanisms: Receptor – monitors the environments and responds to changes (stimuli). Control center – determines the set point at which the variable is maintained. Effector – provides the means to respond to stimuli.

Homeostatic Control Mechanisms Figure 1.4 Change detected by receptor Stimulus: Produces change in variable Input: Information sent along afferent pathway to Receptor (sensor)Effector Control center Variable (in homeostasis) Response of effector feeds back to influence magnitude of stimulus and returns variable to homeostasis Output: Information sent along efferent pathway to Imbalance

Regulation Most regulatory systems in the body use extrinsic regulation: responses controlled by nervous and endocrine systems, e.g. brain regulates body temp Usually occurs by negative feedback which can be modeled as a thermostat:

Negative Feedback Most common way that homeostasis is maintained in the body In negative feedback systems the response of the effector negates or opposes the stimulus (shuts off the original stimulus) Example: Regulation of room temperature

Figure 1.5 Signal wire turns heater on Signal wire turns heater off Response; temperature rises Response; temperature drops Stimulus: rising room temperature Stimulus: dropping room temperature Balance Effector (heater) Effector (heater) Set point Control center (thermostat) Heater off Set point Receptor-sensor (thermometer in Thermostat) Control center (thermostat) Heater on Imbalance Receptor-sensor (thermometer in Thermostat)

Negative Feedback: Maintaining Normal Limits Figure 1–3 Thermostat model

Figure 1–4 Negative Feedback

Positive Feedback NOT a way to maintain homeostasis Rare in nature because it is a “runaway train” The response of the effector output reinforces or exaggerates the stimulus (e.g. blood clotting, ovulation, action potential) Figure 1–5

Homeostatic Imbalance Disturbance of homeostasis or the body’s normal equilibrium Overwhelming the usual negative feedback mechanisms allows destructive positive feedback mechanisms to take over This is often used as the definition of “disease”

Anatomical terms Anatomical Position Hands at sides, palms forward

Directional Terms Note that Left/Right are reversed in anatomical figures Superior and Inferior – toward and away from the head, respectively Anterior and Posterior – toward the front and back of the body Medial and Lateral – toward the midline, away from the midline Proximal and Distal – closer to and farther from the origin of the body part (or from the torso) Superficial and Deep – toward and away from the body surface Cranial and Caudal – toward the head and toward the tail

Body Planes Sometimes to gain a greater understanding of 3D images anatomists cut the image at different planes Three planes exists in 3D space -Two are parallel to the long axis of the body -One is perpendicular to the long axis.

Body Planes Figure 1.8

Body Planes Sagittal – parallel to long axis, divides the body into right and left parts midsagittal or medial – sagittal plane that lies on the midline Frontal or coronal – also parallel to long axis, divides the body into anterior and posterior parts Transverse or horizontal (cross section) – perpendicular to long axis, divides the body into superior and inferior parts

Body Cavities Dorsal cavity protects the nervous system, and is divided into two subdivisions Cranial cavity – within the skull; encases the brain Vertebral cavity – runs within the vertebral column; encases the spinal cord Ventral cavity houses the internal organs (viscera), and is divided into two subdivisions Thoracic Abdominopelvic

Body Cavities Figure 1.9a Cranial cavity (contains brain) Dorsal body cavity Diaphragm Abdominal cavity (contains digestive viscera) Pelvic cavity (contains bladder, reproductive organs, and rectum) Vertebral cavity (contains spinal cord) Key: Dorsal body cavity Ventral body cavity Thoracic cavity (contains heart and lungs) (a) Lateral view

Ventral Body Cavity Membranes Called serous membranes or serosa Parietal serosa lines internal body walls Visceral serosa covers the internal organs Serous fluid separates the serosae
