What is anatomy? - ✔✔
- How big something is' the geometry and shape, how it connects to the rest of the body
- STRUCTURE: can be physically described
- Size, shape, location, made of a group of substructures, links to other structures
What is physiology? - ✔✔The scientific investigation of the processes or functions of living things
FUNCTION: how things work
How are A&P linked? - ✔✔
-Form follows function; processes, structures and functions are all interwoven
-Structure implies function
-Physiology is explainable only in terms of the underlying anatomy
-You can't FUNCTION without STRUCTURE, and vise versa. It is impossible to understand physiology
without developing an understanding of anatomy; physiology is explainable only in terms of the
underlying anatomy.
Can A&P be studied together or separately? - ✔✔-They can be studied together or separately, but there
is a greater benefit in studying them together
-Regionally, Systemically
Regional anatomy (Regionally) - ✔✔The body is studied area by area, and all systems within the area are
studied simultaneously
Systemic anatomy (Systemically) - ✔✔the body is studied system by system. A system is a group of
structures that have one or more common functions (cardiovascular system, digestive system, etc.); how
we study anatomy
,What are the advantages and disadvantages to A&P? - ✔✔Advantage of studying A&P together
-Helps tie everything together
-The information makes the most sense this way
-Easier in the sense that they are interwoven so the material is easier to grasp when taught this way
Disadvantage of studying A&P together
-Loads of information
-Details may be missed
Which is predominate between regionally/ systemically in BIOL 319? Any exceptions? - ✔✔Systemic
predominates in Biol 319
Exceptions - going from cranium to study nerves and jumping to skeleton to study the system (regional)
Explain the word Integrative in the titles of BIOL . - ✔✔Integrative means that various aspects
of both anatomy and physiology are linked/coordinated together
-combining form and function to create a whole
Histology - ✔✔examines tissues, subcomponent of organs, which are composed of cells and the
materials surrounding them; microscopic study of tissues (groups of similar cells)
Gross anatomy - ✔✔study of structures that can be viewed without a microscope; can be approached
systemically or regionally; can be viewed by the naked eye; "large"
Surface anatomy - ✔✔Looking at the exterior of the body to visualize structures deeper inside the body
Cell physiology - ✔✔processes occurring in cells
Systemic physiology - ✔✔Function of organ systems
Neurophysiology - ✔✔Nervous system
,Cardiovascular physiology - ✔✔Heart and blood vessels
How are we studying anatomy in Bio 319? - ✔✔Using a systems approach
What four elements make up most of the body's molecules? - ✔✔Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and
Nitrogen (COHN)
- Makes up 95 % of the body molecules
What are the different levels can one study/learn/discuss in anatomy? - ✔✔Chemical level (which
involves interactions between atoms- atoms, molecules, organelles) ,Cell level, tissue level, organ level,
organ system level and organisms level
Atoms → Molecules → Cells → Tissues → Organs → Organ System → Organism
-Chemical level: Atoms combine to form molecules
-Cell level: Molecules form organelles, such as the nucleus and mitochondria, which make up the cells.
-Tissue level: Similar cells and surrounding materials make up tissues.
-Organ level: Different tissues combine to form organs, such as the urinary bladder.
-Organ System level: Organs, such as the urinary bladder and kidneys, make up an organ system.
-Organism level: Organ systems make up an organism
Macromolecules - ✔✔large molecules made up of smaller repeated units
What is histology and what piece of equipment is needed to do histology? - ✔✔Histology is the study of
tissues where we look at the sub components. You need a light microscope to study histology.
What piece of equipment is needed to do histology? - ✔✔light microscope
, What piece of equipment is usually necessary for studying the detailed structure of cellular organelles?
Why? - ✔✔Electronic microscope because it is a stronger microscope with more resolving power that
can observe unique details
What is the difference between tissues and organs? - ✔✔- A tissue is composed of a group of similar
cells and the materials surrounding them- these surrounding materials determine the functions of the
tissue.
- Organs are made of tissues. An organ is composed of two or more tissue types that perform one or
more common functions.
In the broadest categories, how many tissue types are there and what are they called? - ✔✔There are
four tissue types:
- epithelial (Skin and everywhere in body-lines cavities and surfaces of blood vessels and organs
throughout the body),
- nervous (nerves, brain, spinal cord),
- muscle (smooth, skeletal, cardiac)
- connective (connects tissues and organs)
What is the definition of an organ? - ✔✔Organ is composed of two or more tissue types that perform
one or more similar functions
Knowing the definition of an organ, how is the urinary bladder an example? - ✔✔-The urinary bladder
contains multiple types of tissues (3 out of the 4) that function together for a specific purpose→ collects
urine from the kidneys
-Contains epithelial, connective, and smooth muscle tissue
What are the major anatomical/ physiological systems? - ✔✔-Cardiovascular, Skeletal, Muscular,
Nervous, Integumentary, Endocrine(Glands), Lymphatic, Respiratory, Digestive, Urinary (Renal-kidney),
and Reproductive systems
- 11 total
Cardiovascular system - ✔✔- Job: Transports nutrients, waste products, gases, and hormones throughout
the body; - - plays a role in the immune response and the regulation of body temperature
