Anatomy & Physiology Study of human biology is divided into two primary areas.
2
1. Anatomy - (Greek Ana = up, tome cutting) field of study that describe the A. Gross Anatomy - study of body structures that are B. Microanatomy - level only. Histology -. Histology -. C. Systematic Anatomy - Studies body structure (skeletal, muscular). D. Regional Anatomy - with in a given region (head, leg).

2. Physiology - (Greek physio = nature, logic=study) 2. Physiology - (Greek physio = nature, logic=study) A. Human physiology – Study of specific A. Human physiology – Study of specific B. Cellular & Systemic Physiology – emphasizes B. Cellular & Systemic Physiology – emphasizes
4
Structural Levels of Organization Small (Simple) to Large (Complex) Small (Simple) to Large (Complex)
5
Organ Systems
6
Characteristics of Life 1. 2. Anabolism - build up Catabolism - break down 3.4.5. 6.
7
Homeostasis - Balance of Life Internal environment is to the world around itself.
8
Two types of Control 1. Negative feedback – 1. Negative feedback –.
9
Negative Feedback
10
2. Positive feedback - rare in a healthy body because a change in normal state
11
Health & Disease Disease any reduction from the Acute – Chronic – Symptoms - sensations, dizziness, pain Diagnosis - identifying a disease from its symptoms
12
Classification of disease 1. Congenital - Can be inherited May cause death Ex. 2. Immunological – Defense reaction by white blood cells (WBC’s) Ex. 3. Metabolic May cause death trauma. Ex. 4. Neoplastic Ex.

Body Planes (imaginary planes) 3 Basic Types Sagittal – Sagittal – Midsagittal - Midsagittal - Parasagittal - Parasagittal - 2. Frontal - 3. Horizontal – halves Cross Section (transverse).

The Body Plan
22
Body Parts & Regions
23
Body Cavities (Spaces) 2 Major 1. Dorsal Cavities 2. Ventral Cavities - upper a. Abdominal Pelvic Cavity a. b. separate the 2 cavities separate the 2 cavities
24
Body Cavities (Spaces) 2 Major 1. Dorsal Cavities Cranial Cavity Vertebrate Canal 2. Ventral Cavities Thoracic - upper a. Pleural b. Pericardial Abdominal Pelvic Cavity a. Abdominal cavity b. Pelvic Cavity Diaphragm separate the 2 cavities
25
Cavities are covered by membranes Serous Membrane –. a. Visceral – b. Parietal - c. usually fluid between the two to reduce friction by body movement.
26
Cavities are covered by membranes 2. - Surrounds the heart. 2. - Surrounds the heart. 3. – Covers the lungs. 3. – Covers the lungs. 4. – Lines the abdominolpelvic cavity. 4. – Lines the abdominolpelvic cavity.
