Estheticians need to understand how the human body functions as a whole, to get a scientific basis on
the proper application of products/services and the effects the services will have on the tissues, organs,
and body systems.

anabolism. They are carried out simultaneously and continually within the cells.
7. Four types of tissue found in the human body:: Connective tissue, Epithelial tissue, Muscle
tissue, Nerve tissue. (adipose tissue a.k.a fatty tissue).

9. The most important organs in the body:: Brain, eyes, heart, kidneys, lungs, liver, skin,
stomach, intestines.
10. Eleven main body systems:: Skeletal, muscular, nervous, circulatory, lym- phatic/Immune,
edocrine, digestive, excretory, respiratory, integumentary (skin), reproductive.
11. Primary functions of the skeletal system:: Forms the physical foundation of the body, allows
for body movement, produces blood for the body, stores minerals such as calcium carbonate and
calcium phosphate.
12. Three types of muscle tissue found in the body:: Striated muscles, Nonstriated muscles,
Cardiac muscle.
13. Two types of nerves found in the body:: Sensory nerves (a.k.a afferent nerves) & Motor
nerves (a.k.a efferent nerves)
14. The primary functions of the lymphatic system are:: To act as a defense against invading
bacteria and toxins, to remove waste material from the body cells to the blood, to aid in reducing
swelling, inflammation, and accumulations in the blood vessels.
15. Two types of glands in the Endocrine systems:: Exocrine glands (a.k.a duct glands) &
Endocrine glands (a.k.a ductless glands)






, 16. Organs of then the excretory system:: Kidneys, liver, skin, large intestine, the lungs.
17. Abductors: Muscles that draw a body part, such as a finger, arm, or toe, away from the midline of
the body or of an extremity. In the hand, abductors seperate the finger.
18. Absorption: The transport of fully digested food into the circulatory system to feed the tissues
and cells.
19. Adductors: Muscles that draw a body part, such as a finger, arm, or toe, inward toward the
median axis of the body or of an extremity. In the hand, adductors draw the fingers together.
20. Adipose tissue: A specialized connective tissue considered fat, which gives smoothness and
contour to the body and cushions and insulates the body.
21. Adrenal glands: Glands that secrete about 30 steroid hormones and control metabolic
processes of the body including the fight or flight response.
22. Anabolism: Constructive metabolism, the process of building up larger molecules from smaller
ones. During this process the body stores water, food and oxygen for the time when these substances
will be needed cell growth and repair.
23. Angular Artery: Artery that supplies blood to the side of the nose.
24. Anterior Auricular Artery: Artery that supplies blood to the front part of the ear.
25. Aorta: The body's largest artery. The arterial trunk that carries blood from the heart to be
distributed by branch arteries through the body.
26. Arteries: Thick-walled muscular and flexible tubes that carry oxygenated blood from the heart to
the capillaries throughout the body.
27. Arterioles: Small arteries that deliver bood to capillaries.
28. Artioventricular Valves: Abbreviated ATV; valves which are designed to prevent the blood from
flowing back into the pumping chamber.
29. Atrium: Thin-walled, upper chamber of the heart through which blood is pumped to the ventricles.
There is a right atrium and a left atrium.
30. Auricularis Anterior: Muscle in front of the ear that draws the ear foreward
31. Auricularis Posterior: Muscle behind the ear that draws the ear backward.
32. Auricularis superior: Muscle above the ear that draws the ear upward.
33. Auriculotemporal Nerve: Nerve that affects the external ear and skin above the temple, up to the
top of the skull.
34. Autonomic Nervous System: Abbreviated ANS; the part of the nervous system the controls the
