Unit 1 CH.1 - Organization Of The Human
Body. [MEMMLER 14TH Edition]
Questions And Answers.
Anatomy - ANSWER- The study of body STRUCTURE
Physiology - ANSWER- The study of body FUNCTION
Pathology - ANSWER- study of disease
Levels of Organization - ANSWER- simple to more complex levels.
chemicals → cell → tissue → organ → body system → organism.
Living Organisms carbon-based - ANSWER-
Body Systems - ANSWER- [PROTECTION/SUPPORT MOVEMENT]
- integumentary.
- skeletal.
- muscular.
[COORDINATION / CONTROL]
- nervous.
- endocrine.
[CIRCULATION]
- cardiovascular.
- lymphatic.
[NUTRITION & FLUID BALANCE]
- respiratory.
- digestive.
- urinary.
----------------------------
- reproductive.
Metabolism - ANSWER- All the cellular reactions that sustain life.
Types of Metabolism : catabolism / anabolism
, Catabolism - ANSWER- BREAKING DOWN to simpler compounds.
- Catastrophe.
complex → simple.
- Digestion.
Anabolism - ANSWER- Simple compounds BUILT UP.
Homeostasis - ANSWER- internal balance or constancy.
- fluid balance. [ correct input/output. ]
- + / - feedback.
- regulated variables.
Negative Feedback - ANSWER- Main method for for maintaining homeostasis.
ex: body releasing glucagon when blood sugar is low.
Measures taken to stop "issue".
Regulated Variables - ANSWER- Conditions that must remain within a somewhat
narrow range.
Includes:
- Temp.
- Volume / Composition of Body Fluids.
- Blood Gas Concentrations.
- Blood Pressure.
intracellular fluid - ANSWER- fluid within cells
extracellular fluid - ANSWER- fluid outside the cell.
[plasma, interstitial fluid]
2/3 of fluid inside of cells. - ANSWER-
Avg. Adult 60% Water - ANSWER-
Directional Terms - ANSWER- superior, inferior, anterior, posterior, medial, lateral,
proximal, distal.
Superior / Inferior - ANSWER- above / below
