1 Introduction to ANATOMY  Terminology  Anatomical Position  Basic Movements  Ten Biological Systems

2 TERMINOLOGY  Anatomy – a branch of science that deals with the structural organization of ___________________how they are built and what they consist of.  The ________________ of the body and its organs  Physiology – is concerned with basic processes such as____________________ ___________________________________________________as they occur within the various systems of the body.  How all the parts of the body______________________  Exercise Physiology – a branch of physiology, exercise physiologists concentrate their research specifically on ______________________________________ ___________________________________________________________

3 THE ANATOMICAL POSITION _______________________________ _______________________________ » UNIVERSAL ____________________ when discussing anatomy so that all people know exactly what is being discussed no matter what country or language. » diagrams that portray the body in an ______________________________ ___________________________________ _________________________________ _________________________________ ________________________(with palms facing forward).

4 ___________ ___________ ______________ ______________ THE ANATOMICAL PLANES Lateral Medial Anterior Posterior Superior Inferior  the anatomical planes relate to positions in space and are at right angles to one another.

5 ANATOMICAL PLANES _______________ Plane – “divides” the body into superior and inferior segments. _______________Plane – “divides” the body into medial and lateral segments. ______________________Plane – “divides” the body into anterior and posterior segments.

6 THE ANATOMICAL AXES ____________ Axis _____________ Axis ____________ Axis  the general rule is that the axis of rotation is always perpendicular to the plane of movement

7 THE ANATOMICAL AXES __________________________axis – is in the “north-south” relationship to the anatomical position ___________________________axis – is in the “east-west” relationship to the anatomical position. _______________________ axis – is in a “front- to-back” relationship to the anatomical position.

8 Relationship between Planes and Axes Axis of Rotation Plane of Motion Example Flexion, extension Rotation of extremities, axial rotation Abduction, adduction

9 Describing Position and Movement Anterior / Posterior Superior / Inferior Medial / Lateral Proximal / Distal This is the time to start a glossary. In your note books write down the terms and find the definitions. Make sure you don’t only write them down but you know how to demonstrate them.

10 BASIC MOVEMENTS flexion / extension abduction / adduction internal / external rotation circumduction supination / pronation protraction / retraction dorsiflexion / plantar flexion eversion / inversion elevation / depression opposition / reposition

11 Helpful Hints In the anatomical position, all flexion/extension occurs in the ______________ plane; all abduction/adduction occurs in the_______________plane; and all rotation occurs in the _____________________ plane. More involved movements are usually not in one specific plane but occurs as a ______________________________________ from more than one plane.

12 The Ten Biological Systems of the Human Body 1.The ____________ System – Supports the body, protects vital organs, works in conjunction with the muscles to cause movement. 2.The ____________ System – Consists of 3 types of tissue: skeletal, smooth and cardiac. 3.The ____________ System – Consists of the lungs and the airways leading to them. 4.The ____________ System – Serves to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the body and remove waste products from it. 5.The ____________ System – Oversees all the other systems and acts as a kind of control centre.

13 6.The ____________ System – Allows the body to break down food into simpler substances so they can enter the blood stream. 7.The ____________ System – Consists of specialized organs that allow males and females to reproduce. 8.The ____________ System – Helps to defend the body against infection and disease. 9.The ____________ System – Consists of glands that secrete hormones that regulate various activities (metabolism, growth, development). 10.The ____________ System – Allows the body to eliminate waste products and regulate its water and chemical balance.
