Human Anatomy and Physiology I Mr. Dawson
2
1. Anatomy and Physiology 2. The Standard Anatomical Position
6
1. Ventral vs Dorsal 2. Ventral “viscera” Thoracic ▪ Pleural and pericardial cavities Abdominopelvic
7
Body Cavities
9
1. Serous membrane or ‘Serosa’ Double membrane - fluid 2. Covers organs and cavity walls Parietal vs visceral ▪ Parietal pericardium ▪ Visceral pleura ▪ Visceral peritoneum (covers abdominal organs)
10
Serous Membrane (Serosa)
11
Heart and Serous Membranes
12
Cavities in the Head
13
I. Levels of Organization II. Life Functions III. Systems of the Body IV. Survival Needs V. Homeostasis
15
1. Response to stimuli 2. Metabolism Anabolic ▪ To build up – energy requiring Catabolic ▪ To break down – energy releasing 3. Reproduction Gametes – Sexual ▪ sperm and egg – haploid ▪ 1-celled zygote
16
1. Nutrients Carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, vitamins, minerals 2. Oxygen 20% of ‘air’ Cellular respiration (glucose + oxygen) 3. Water 60-80% water Cells mostly made of water Hydrolysis reactions 4. Maintain ‘normal’ body temperature 37 C
17
Organs work together to accomplish a common purpose What should you know about each system? 1. Overall or general function 2. Examples of organs
22
1. Maintain stable internal condition within the body 2. Dynamic Conditions are maintained within ‘narrow’ limits 3. All organs are involved – work together or in opposition 4. Examples Glucose levels Blood Clotting Gas levels (oxygen and carbon dioxide) pH
24
(1). Negative (a). Inverse variable change- to the initial response (b). Blood Glucose Control- Endocrine System (c). Most common (2). Positive (a). Direct variable change- in the same direction as the original change (b). Self-perpetuating events (c). Blood Clotting; Labor and Contractions! (Oxytocin)
25
Negative Feedback System Pancreas (blood glucose regulation)
26
1. Kidneys help to maintain proper water balance in the body. 2. Blood – low levels of water (hypertension) ADH released from posterior pituitary gland Causes reabsorption of water into the blood (from the kidney tubules) 3. If water volume is too high ADH not released --------- increased urination
28
Positive Feedback System
29
Homeostatic mechanisms must cope or adapt to stress Changes in the environment, introduction of pathogens, etc. The failure of one system may affect another system adversely. Effect of Disease (failure to maintain homeostasis) 1. pathogens 2. genetics 3. abnormal cell growth due to cancer 4. degenerative 5. trauma – environmental hazards 5. nutrition (Scurvy and vitamin C)
