Note:
These notes are made from the lecture slides and prescribed textbook (Tortora). All three of us who
contributed passed both HUB1019F and HUB1020S with over 90%, and so we are quite confident that they
cover most of the information that is necessary to pass these courses. However, new things can be added
to the syllabus so we would not recommend solely relying on these notes.
We put many hours into these, and hope that they can be of great use to you. We would advise using these
notes as a supplement to your lectures. Not having to write down notes in every lecture is helpful, as it
eliminates stress and allows you to understand the work better as you are covering it.
We wish you all the best for your first year!

TERMINOLOGY
Superficial and deep: relative to the surface of the body
SURFACE LAYERS OF THE BODY
- Skin/ Epidermis
- Superficial fascia
- Deep fascia
SUPERFICIAL FASCIA
- Loose fatty, connective tissue underlying the dermis and binding it to the parts beneath
- Sensory nerves for the skin
- Veins & Arteries, fine lymph vessels
- Varies in thickness
3
, DEEP FASCIA
- Dense, fibrous connective tissue which surrounds individual muscles, divides groups of muscles into
fascial compartments
- Covers muscles of a limb like a glove
- Varies in thickness
- Attaches to bone when it becomes superficial
- Intermuscular septa: runs between muscles
- At wrist and ankle deep: thickened -> retinacula (thick fibrous bands that hold groups of tendons
close to the underlying bones)
CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM
- Supply oxygen and nutrients
- Arteries: oxygenated blood pumped to the tissues
- Veins: Deoxygenated blood returned to heart
- Mirroring effect
NERVOUS SYSTEM
- Immune system
- Lymph: white blood cells
- Network of vessels that drain lymph from body
- Remove toxins, waste and other unwanted chemicals from the body
