HAPP
study of specific systems of the body
systemically Anatomy
the body is studied region by region--study of different regions of the body
regional Anatomy
the study of body structures that are too small to be seen with the naked eye.
Microscopic Anatomy
the 'cells' and 'tissues' of the body can only be seen through a microscope
microscopic anatomy
study of internal and external structures of the body and their relationships of each other
Anatomy
involves looking at the e exterior of the body to visualize structure deeper inside the body
surface anatomy
it is the study of how the body and its 'parts work' or 'function'
Physiology
the scientific investigation of the processes or functions of living things
Physiology
the scientific investigation of the processes or functions of living things
Physiology
study of functional properties of nerve cells (brain)
Neurophysiology
study of hormones (chemical regulators in the blood) and how they control body functions
Endocrinology
study of functions of the heart and blood vessels
Cardiovascular Physiology
combination of two or more atoms
molecules
removes foreign substances from the blood and lymph, combats disease, maintains tissue fluid balance, and absorbds dietary fats from the digestive tract. Consist of the lymphatic vessels. "lymph nodes" and "other lymphatic organs"
Lymphatic system
smallest independent units of life
cell level
study of the body's defense against disease- causing agents
immunology
Study of the functions of the Kidney
Renal Physiology
covers body surfaces, lines hollow organs and cavities, and forms glands
epithelial
study of the functional changes associated with diseases and aging
Pathophysiology
simplest level, the body is composed of atoms (indivisible), basic and smallest unit of matter
atoms
molecule containing atoms of more than one element
compounds
basic structural anf functional units of an organism that are composed of chemicals
cell levels
group of similar cells and the materials surrounding them
tissue level
connects, support, and protects body organs while distributing blood vessels to another tissues
connective
provides protection, regulates temperature, prevents water loss, snd helps produce vitamin D. Consist of "skin, hair, nails and sweat glands
integumentary system
carries information from one part of the body to another through berve impules
nervous
contracts to make body parts move anf generate heat
muscular tissue
perform one or more common functions
organ level
they have specific functions and usually have rocognizable shapes
tissue level
study of structures the can be examined without the aid of a microscope, can be approached either 'systematically' or 'regionally'
gross anatomy
group of organs that together perform a common function or set of functions and are therefore 'viewed as a unit'
organ system level
any living thing considered as a whole-wheather composed of one cell
organism level
provides protection snd support, allows body movements produces blood cells, and stores minerals and adipose consists of "bones, associated cartilages, ligaments and joints
skeletal system
provides body movements, maintain posture, and produces body heat. Consist of "muscle attached to tge skeleton by tendons"
muscular system
transport nutrients, waste products, gases, and hormones throughout the body : plays a role in the immune response snd the regulation of body temperature. Consists of the "Heart, blood vessels and blood"
Cardiovascular system
exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide between the blood and air regulates blood pH. consists of the "lungs and respiratory passage"
respiratory system
performs the mechanical and chemical processes of digestion, absorption of nutrients, and elimination of wastes. consists of the mouth, esophagus, stomach, intestines, and accessory organs
digestive system
a major regulatory system that detect sensations and controls movements. physiological processes, and intellectual functions. consists of the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and sensory receptors
nervous system
a major regulatory system that influences metabolism, growth, reproductive and many other functions. Consists of Glands, such as the "pituitary that secrete hormones"
endocrine system
the sum of all the chemicals processes that occur in the body
metabolism
removes wastes products from the blood and regulates blood pH. ion balance and water balance, Consists of the "kidney, urinary bladder, and ducts that carry urine
urinary system
Produces ocytes and is the site of fertilization and fetal development; produces milk for the newborn: produces hormones that influence sexual function and behaviors. Consists of the " ovaries, uterine tubes, uterus, vagina, mammary glands, and associated structures"
Female reproductive system
produces and transfers sperms cells to the female and produces hormones that influence sexual functions and behaviors. Consists of the "testes, accessory, structures ducts, and penis"
male reproductive system
breakdown of complex substances into simpler components
cetabolism
the information of new cells for tissue growth, repair, or replacement
reproduction
building of complex chemical substances from smaller, simpler components
anabolism
body's ability to detect snd respond to changes
responsiveness
includes motion of the whole body, individuals organs, single cells, and even tiny structures inside cells
movement
a body structure that monitors changes in a controlled condition and sends input to a control center; this pathway is also called afferent pathway
receptors
an increase in body size that results form an increase in the size of existing cells, increase in the number of cells or both
growth
development of a cell from an unspecialized state
Differentiation
condition in which body function, body fluids and other factors of the internal environment are maintained at levels suitable to support life
homeostasis
a body structure thst receives output from the control center snd produces s response or effect thst changes the controlled condition
effector
study of functions of the air passageways and lungs
Respiratory Physiology
receives the input and sends nerve impulses to the effector
control center
