1 WELCOME BACK! Do Now 8/8/14

2 Welcome to Anatomy & Physiology Anatomy – study of the structure and shape of the body and its parts Physiology – study of how the body and its parts function Gross anatomy – large structures, easily observable Microanatomy – very small structures, only viewed with a microscope

3 Anatomical Position Upright with the feet parallel and flat on floor, upper limbs at sides with palms facing front, and head level facing forward.

4 How many ways can you cut the human body in half?

5 Body Planes There are three body planes: a)Mid-Sagittal (Median)- divides the body into an equal right and left side. b)Transverse (Horizontal) - divides the body into a top and bottom. c)Coronal (Frontal) - divides the body into a front and a back side.

8 Sooooooo…….What if…. You are a surgeon and planning to do open heart surgery…. you would need to make a ________________ cut into the chest cavity. You have a patient that has gangrene in the lower portion of their leg and you need to amputate….. You would make a ________________ cut through the leg. The abdominal muscles and muscles of the back are separated by the _______________ plane.

9 Relative Positions Superior = above Inferior = below Posterior = behind Anterior = in front of Dorsal = at the back side of the human body Ventral = at the belly-side of the human body

10 Superior vs. Inferior Complete these sentences using the terms superior and inferior. The hands are ________________to the feet The knees are ________________ to the waist. The elbow is ________________ to the wrist. The calf muscle is ________________to the ankle.

11 Anterior vs. Posterior and Dorsal vs. Ventral Complete these sentences using the terms anterior/posterior and dorsal/ventral. The heel is ________________ to the toes. The biceps are _____________ to the triceps. The hamstring is ____________to the quadriceps

12 Relative Positions Lateral = away from the mid- line Medial = toward the mid-line Distal = away from Proximal = near Superficial = surface Deep = on the inside, internal to another structure

13 Lateral vs. Medial Complete these sentences using the terms lateral and medial. The arms are _______________to the midline. The neck is ______________to the arms. The shoulders are ___________to the midline.

14 Proximal vs. Distal Complete these sentences using the terms proximal and distal. The thigh is ____________ to the foot. The fingers are _____________ to the palm. The elbow is _____________ to the hand.

15 Latin roots – what body part? language linguist linguini

16 Body Regions Axial = head, neck, and trunk regions of the body Appendicular = upper and lower limbs of the body

17 Pin the Cauda on the Human

18 Exit Ticket 1. The lower arm is _______ to the stomach area (also known as the ________ region), while the head (or ________ region) is _________ to the stomach. 2. What is the difference between distal and inferior? 3. Name and describe the 3 body planes. 4. The _______ region is inferior to the tarsal region and belongs to the axial/appendicular region.
