1. Introduction to Human Anatomy& Physiology

2. ANATOMY - the study of the structure (morphology, form) of body parts.
  ANATOMY - the study of the structure (morphology, form) of body parts.
·       Histology - the microscopic study of tissues.
·       Cytology - the microscopic study of cells.
PHYSIOLOGY - the study of the function of body parts.

3. Life Processes Distinguish Living from Non-Living Things.
Movement
Responsiveness
Growth
Reproduction
Respiration
Digestion
Absorption
Circulation
Assimilation
Excretion

4. Mental Mapping (use characteristics to categorize the following)
I am walking to McDonalds
I stop at the traffic light
I am getting taller
I am breathing air
I get a hamburger and eat it
My body absorbs nutrients from hamburger
The nutrients I absorbed from hamburger is turned into things my body needs
Eventually I go to the restroom
Someday I may reproduce

My body absorbs nutrients from hamburger absorption
The nutrients I absorbed from hamburger is turned into things my body needs assimilation

6. Environmental Needs Nutrients for energy
Oxygen for cellular respiration
Water for most metabolic reactions, lubrication, etc…
Heat to maintain 37C body temperature, enzyme action
Pressure for breathing and filtering blood through kidneys

7. HOMEOSTASIS
The tendency of an organism to maintain a stable internal environment.
All life processes and metabolic reactions work to maintain homeostasis.
Most homeostatic mechanisms are regulated by negative feedback (system acts to oppose changes)
Example - maintenance of body temperature at 98.6F/37C.

12. Structural Levels of Organization
The atom (i.e. C, H, O) is the least complex level; the smallest particle of an element.
Atoms combine with one another to form…
Molecules (i.e. CO2, H2O);
Molecules combine with another to form…

13. Macromolecules (i.e. carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids);
Macromolecules combine to form…
Organelles (i.e. cell membrane, nucleus, ribosome); small organs of a cell, each with a particular function;
Organelles collectively compose…
Cells (i.e. skin cell, muscle cell, neuron); The cell is the basic unit of structure and function of living things!
Similar cells are arranged into…

14. Tissues (i.e. epithelia, connective, muscle, nervous);
Two or more tissues combine to form…
Organs (i.e. skin, heart, brain);
Two or more organs combine to form…
Organ systems (i.e. integumentary, cardiovascular),
The eleven organ systems collectively form the…
The human organism; the most complex level of organization.

16. Divisions of the Human Body
Axial Portion Appendicular Portion
Head Arms
Neck Legs
Trunk
Axial Portion is divided into 2 major cavities. (organs within these cavities are referred to as viscera.)

17. 2 Divisions of Axial Portion of the Body
Dorsal Cavity Ventral Cavity
Subdivided into Subdivided int0 2 parts parts
Cranial Cavity
Vertebral Cavity
Thoracic cavity
Abdomino-pelvic Cavity
Separated by diaphragm

18. Cranial Cavity
Brain
Vertebral Cavity
Spinal Cord
Thoracic Cavity
Lungs
Mediastinum - separates thorax into right and left sides
Heart
Esophagus
Trachea
Thymus gland

19. Abdominopelvic Cavity
Stomach
Liver
Spleen
Gall bladder
Small and large intestines
Rectum/Anus
Urinary bladder
Internal reproductive organs
Abdomen Region
Pelvic Region

21. Serous Membranes of the Ventral Body Cavity
Membrane - a soft, thin pliable layer of tissue that either:
·   Covers a vital (visceral organ) = Visceral membrane.
· Lines a body cavity = Parietal Membrane.
There is a space between a visceral and parietal membrane into which SEROUS fluid is secreted for lubrication.

22. Serous Membranes of the Heart
The membrane on the surface of the heart is called visceral pericardium.
The membrane that lines the cavity in which the heart is located is called the parietal pericardium.
The space between these two membranes is called the pericardial cavity, and it is filled with serous fluid.

23. Serous Membranes

24. Serous Membranes of the Lungs
The membrane on the surface of the lung is called visceral pleura.
The membrane that lines the cavity in which the lungs are located is called parietal pleura. 
The space between these two membranes is called the pleural cavity, and it is filled with serous fluid.

25. Serous Membranes

26. Serous Membranes of the Abdominal Organs:
The membrane on the surface of the liver, stomach, etc. is called visceral peritoneum.
The membrane that lines the abdominal cavity is called parietal peritoneum.
The space between these two membranes is called the peritoneal cavity, and it is filled with serous fluid

27. Serous Membranes

29. Anatomical Terminology
Definition - a language used to describe the relative position of body parts; needed for communication.
Anatomical position - standing erect, face forward, palms forward.

31. Terms Referring to Direction/Relative Position
1. Superior = above; Inferior = below;
2. Anterior = front; Posterior = back; 
3. Medial = Center; Lateral = side;
4. Cephalad = head; Caudal = tail;
5. Ventral = front; Dorsal = back
6. Proximal = closer to trunk;
Distal = farther from trunk;
7. Superficial = surface;
Deep = internal.

32. Terms Referring to Body Sections (Cuts, Planes)
Sagittal cut: divides the body into right and left portions.
Midsagittal: equal right and left portions.
Frontal Cut: divides the body into anterior and posterior portions.
Transverse cut: divides the body into superior and inferior portions.
