AAMI Anatomy 2 Midterm with Complete Solutions The study of anatomy in regard to the structural changes, both microscopically and macroscopically, in the body which occurs as a result of disease Pathological anatomy or morbid anatomy Studies of functions of living things or how the body works Physiology or physiological anatomy The study of structures that can be studied with the unaided eye, without the use of a microscope Gross anatomy or Macroscopic Deals with the study of the structures of the body that can be seen only with the use of a microscope. These structures are so small that they are best studied using a microscope Microscopic anatomy The study of tissues in the body which can only be effectively studied with the aid of the microscope Histology The study of the structure of individual cells Cytology Where the body is studied by individual systems such as digestion, circulatory, skeletal, or respiratory systems Systemic Anatomy Will study some particular body region as a separate unit, such as the head, chest, and abdominal areas Regional anatomy Refers to a subject lying face down or with the anterior surface down Prone Position Refers to a subject lying face up or with the anterior surface facing up Supine position Means toward or closer to the front of the body Anterior or ventral Means towards or closer to the back of the body Posterior or dorsal Refers to something which is located towards the midline, or median place of the body Medial Refers to a location away from the median plane or towards the sides of the body Lateral 4 terms referring to a structure located toward the head or upper part of the body away from the feet Superior, cephalad, cephalic, cranial Refers to a structure that is located toward the tail end or the inferior end of the body; away from the head Inferior or caudal Something that is located toward or closer to the point of attachment of a limb to the trunk of the body, or closer to the point of origin Proximal Something that is further away from the point of attachment of a limb to the trunk of the body or farther from the point of origin Distal The movement that decreases an angle at a joint is called?
