Study question in Anatomy Text

Chapter 2 14-15
Distinguish between the study of anatomy and the study of Physiology. Anatomy is the study of the structure of the body parts. Physiology is the function of the body parts.

Give an example that shows the relationship between the structure and function of the body parts. Stomach because its hollow and food have to go through

List the levels of the organization within the human body in reference to specific organs. Atom, molecules, macromolecules, organelles, tissue, organ, organ system.

Distinguish between a midsagittal cut, a transverse cut, and a frontal cut. Midsagittal (vertical), Transverse ( horizontal), Frontal (corneal)

Distinguish between the dorsal and ventral body cavities, and name two smaller cavities that occur within each. Dorsal is the back and ventral is the front. The two smallest are cranial cavity and spinal cavity.

10. Define homeostasis, and explain its importance. Homeostasis means that are the human body internal environment remain relatively constant, regardless of the condition in the external environment

Objective question part IV and part V
Digestive system- stomach
Urinary system- kidneys
Respiratory system - lungs
Circulatory system - Heart
Reproductive system - ovaries
Nervous system- brain
Endocrine system – thyroid gland

8. A organs is composed of several types of tissue and performs a particular function

The imaginary plane that passes through the medline of the body is called the plane

All organs systems of the body together function to maintain , a relative constancy of the internal environment.

Medical Terminology Reinforcement Exercise
Suprapubic- situated, occurring, or performed from above the pubis
Infraorbital- situated beneath the orbit
Gastrectomy means excision of the stomach
Celiotomy means incision of the abdomen
Macrocephalus means large person or skull
Transthoracic means



Study question
Describe the structure and function of endoplasmic reticular Endoplasmic reticular forms membranous system of tubular canals and throughout the cytoplasm

Describe the structure and function of the Golgi apparatus. Mention vesicle and lysomomes in your description

Describe the structure of mitochondria mention the energy molecules ATP in yoyr description. It produces ATP molecules, burns glucose to produce ATP.

Contrast passive transport (diffusion, osmosis, and filtration) with active transport of molecules across the membrane. Active is movement that requires energy, passive just happens on it own.

Objective Question
1.Packing and secretion- golgi apparatus
2. Cell division- centriole
3. Powerhouse of the cell- Mitochondria
4. Protein synthesis- Rough ER
Control center of the cell-Nucleus
Objective Question
What is tissue-a group of similar cells that perform a specialized function
What are the function of epithelia tissue, and give location for each- protect the body from drying out, injury, and bacteria invasion
