2. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Overview of Anatomy and Physiology Anatomy: Study of the structure/parts Physiology: The study of function at many levels

3. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Principle of Complementarity Anatomy and physiology are inseparable. Function always reflects structure What a structure can do depends on its specific form

4. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Levels of Structural Organization Chemical: atoms and molecules Cellular: cells and their organelles Tissue: groups of similar cells Organ: contains two or more types of tissues Organ system: organs that work closely together Organismal: all organ systems

5. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Cardiovascular system Organelle Molecule Atoms Chemical level Cellular level Tissue level Tissues consist of similar types of cells. Organ level Organs are made up of different types of tissues. Organ system level Organ systems consist of different organs that work together closely. Organismal level The human organism is made up of many organ systems. Smooth muscle cell Smooth muscle tissue Connective tissue Blood vessel (organ) Heart Blood vessels Epithelial tissue Smooth muscle tissue 1 2 3 4 5 6 Figure 1.1

10. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Pineal gland Pituitary gland Thyroid gland Thymus Adrenal gland Pancreas Testis Ovary Endocrine System- Glands secrete hormones that regulate various processes

11. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Cardiovascular System - System of b lood vessels used to transport blood, and all substances in it ( oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, wastes, etc.) Heart Blood vessels

12. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Lymphatic vessels Red bone marrow Thoracic duct Thymus Spleen Lymph nodes (Lymphatic System- involved in Immunity; Picks up fluid leaked from blood vessels and returns it to blood stream

13. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Nasal cavity Bronchus Pharynx Larynx Trachea Lung Respiratory System- Keeps blood constantly supplied with oxygen and removes carbon dioxide.

14. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Liver Oral cavity Esophagus Large intestine Stomach Small intestine Rectum Anus Digestive System - Breaks down food into absorbable units that enter blood for distribution to body cells. Indigestible foodstuffs are eliminated as feces.

17. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 1.3 Digestive system Takes in nutrients, breaks them down, and eliminates unabsorbed matter (feces) Respiratory system Takes in oxygen and eliminates carbon dioxide Food O2O2 CO 2 Cardiovascular system Via the blood, distributes oxygen and nutrients to all body cells and delivers wastes and carbon dioxide to disposal organs Interstitial fluid Nutrients Urinary system Eliminates nitrogenous wastes and excess ions Nutrients and wastes pass between blood and cells via the interstitial fluid Integumentary system Protects the body as a whole from the external environment Blood Heart Feces Urine CO 2 O2O2

18. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Survival Needs 1.Nutrients Chemicals for energy and cell building Carbohydrates, fats, proteins, minerals, vitamins 2.Oxygen Essential for energy release (ATP production)

19. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Survival Needs 3.Water Most abundant chemical in the body Site of chemical reactions 4.Normal body temperature Affects rate of chemical reactions 5.Appropriate atmospheric pressure For adequate breathing and gas exchange in the lungs

20. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Homeostasis Definition: Maintenance of a relatively stable internal environment despite continuous outside changes A dynamic state of equilibrium

21. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Components of a Homeostatic Control Mechanism 1.Receptor (sensor) Monitors the environment Senses stimuli 2.Control center Determines the set point at which the variable is maintained Receives input from receptor Determines appropriate response

22. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Components of a Control Mechanism 3.Effector Receives output from control center Provides the means to respond Response acts to reduce or enhance the stimulus (feedback)

23. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Stimulus produces change in variable. Receptor detects change. Input: Information sent along afferent pathway to control center. Output: Information sent along efferent pathway to effector. Response of effector feeds back to reduce the effect of stimulus and returns variable to homeostatic level. ReceptorEffector Control Center BALANCE Afferent pathway Efferent pathway IMBALANCE 1 2 3 4 5 Figure 1.4

24. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Negative Feedback The response reduces or shuts off the original stimulus Example: Regulation of body temperature

25. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 1.5 Sweat glands activated Shivering begins Stimulus Body temperature rises BALANCE Information sent along the afferent pathway to control center Information sent along the afferent pathway to control center Afferent pathway Afferent pathway Efferent pathway Efferent pathway Information sent along the efferent pathway to effectors Information sent along the efferent pathway to effectors Stimulus Body temperature falls Receptors Temperature-sensitive cells in skin and brain Receptors Temperature-sensitive cells in skin and brain Effectors Sweat glands Effectors Skeletal muscles Control Center (thermoregulatory center in brain) Control Center (thermoregulatory center in brain) Response Evaporation of sweat Body temperature falls; stimulus ends Response Body temperature rises; stimulus ends

26. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Positive Feedback The response enhances or exaggerates the original stimulus Rare in biological systems Example: Enhancement of labor contractions by oxytocin
