Anatomy The study of the structure of organisms and their relationship to each other. Answers the question “What are the structures of the body?” Comparative Anatomy Gross Anatomy Regional Anatomy Systemic Anatomy Developmental Anatomy Embryology Microscopic Anatomy (Histology)
3
Physiology The study of body function. Answers the question “How do parts work?” Cell Physiology Special Physiology Systemic Physiology Pathological
4
Relationship between A & P “Structure determines function” Anatomy & physiology are closely related as to the function depends on how it is put together.
5
Levels of organization Chemical - Atoms & molecules Cellular - Basic structural & functional unit of all living things - Smallest unit of life Tissue - Cells with similar structure & function Organ - 2 or more tissue types that work together to perform 1 or more functions Organ systems - A group of organs working together Organism - Many systems that work together to maintain life - Highest level of structural organization

Structural Organization
7
Human Organ Systems 1. Integumentary System – skin, hair, and nails 2. Skeletal System – support and protection 3. Muscular System – movement 4. Nervous System – control system 5. Endocrine System – communication within the body 6. Circulatory System – transport and delivery 7. Lymphatic System - body’s defense system 8. Respiratory System – gas exchange 9. Digestive System – breakdown of food & waste excretion 10. Urinary System – removes wastes from the blood 11. Reproductive System – production of offspring

Necessary Life Functions Maintaining boundaries – Cell membranes and integumentary system Movement – Muscular and skeletal systems Responsiveness – Sensing changes in the environment (nervous system) Digestion – Breaking down food to get energy Metabolism – All chemical reactions within the body (endocrine system) Excretion – Removal of wastes (urinary/excretory system) Reproduction – Ensures continuation of the species Growth & Development – Increase in size
13
Survival Needs Nutrients Contain chemicals used for energy & cell building Oxygen Needed to carry out cellular respiration Water 60-80% of body weight Fluid base for the body Body Temperature Needs to be maintained at 37 o C (98 o F) Atmospheric Pressure Breathing & gas exchange depend on proper pressure
14
Homeostasis Maintaining a constant (stable) internal environment Depends on a constant state of Chemical composition Temperature Pressure & Volume All body systems work together to maintain homeostasis, but it is mainly controlled by the nervous & endocrine systems. Internal conditions may change & vary, but always within narrow limits…equilibrium is VITAL!
15
Homeostatic Regulation Autoregulation (intrinsic) Adjust automatically in response to environmental change ○ When O 2 levels decline in tissue, cells release chemicals that dilate local blood vessels to increase rate of blood flow which provides more O 2 Extrinsic regulation Results from activities from nervous or endocrine system ○ We you set your hand on a hot stove, the heat produces a painful, localized disturbance & the nervous system orders your muscles to pull your hand away from the stove
16
Regulatory Mechanism Receptor Sensor that is sensitive to a particular environmental change or stimulus Control Center Area that receives & processes the info Effector Cell or organ that responds to the commands of the control center Action either opposes or enhances the stimulus
17
Negative Feedback Mechanisms Stimulus produces a response that opposes the original stimulus Example: Temperature control If body temp exceeds 37oC (98.6oF), hypothalamus acts as a thermostat & heat loss is increased through enhanced blood flow to skin & increased sweating
20
Positive Feedback Mechanisms Stimulus produces a response that enhances or exaggerates the original stimulus Example: Blood Clotting Break in blood vessel wall causes bleeding. Damaged cells release chemicals that attract platelets to which will block the break and stop the bleeding.

Directional Terms Anterior and Posterior, which describe structures at the front (anterior) and back (posterior) of the body. AnteriorPosterior Superior and Inferior, which describe a position above (superior) or below (inferior) another part of the body. SuperiorInferior Proximal and Distal, which describe a position that is closer (proximal) or further (distal) from the trunk of the body.ProximalDistal Superficial and Deep, which describe structures that are closer to (superficial) or further from (deep) the surface of the body. Sometimes profound is used synonymously with deep. SuperficialDeep Medial and Lateral, which describe a position that is closer to (medial) or further from (lateral) the midline of the body. MedialLateral Ventral and Dorsal, which describe structures derived from the front (ventral) and back (dorsal) of the embryo before limb rotation. VentralDorsal Cranial and Caudal, which describe structures close to the top of the skull (cranial), and towards the bottom of the body (caudal). CranialCaudal Occasionally, sinister for left, and dexter for right are used
