Structure & Function of the Body Ed 16
Patton Ch 1
anatomy -correct answer_the study of an organism and the relationships of its parts; derived from
two word parts that mean "cutting apart"; dissection dissection -correct answer_process of
cutting the human body apart for learning physiology -correct answer_the study of the functions
of living organisms and their parts scientific method -correct answer_systematic approach to
discovery; 1) propose hypothesis - idea or principle to be tested 2) experimentation - series of
tests of a hypothesis (a controlled experiment eliminates biases or outside influences) 3) theory or
law - a hypothesis that has been supported by experiments and thus shown to have a high degree
of confidence experimental controls -correct answer_used to ensure that the test situation is not
affecting the results test group -correct answer_The experimental group that is exposed to the
variable in an experiment. control group -correct answer_the group that does not receive the
experimental treatment. theory or law -correct answer_a hypothesis that has gained a high level
of confidence levels of organization -correct answer_chemical level , organelle level, cellular level,
tissue level, organ level, organ system level, organism level chemical level -correct answer_atoms
and molecules cells -correct answer_smallest "living" units of structure and function;
organizations of various chemicals tissues -correct answer_an organization of many cells that act
together to perform a common function organs -correct answer_a group of several different kinds
of tissues arranged in ways that allow them to act as a unit to perform a special function systems
-correct answer_an organization of varying numbers and kinds of organs that can work together
to perform complex functions for the body organism -correct answer_organization of all systems
together, forming a whole body microbiome -correct answer_set of interacting communities of
bacteria and other microorganisms that inhabit the human body; influences normal body funtion
structure fits function -correct answer_anatomical parts have structures exactly suited to perform
specific functions anatomical position -correct answer_To stand erect with arms at the sides and
palms of the hands turned forward; head also points forward, as do the feet, which are aligned at
the toe and set slightly apart bilateral symmetry -correct answer_the left and right sides of the
body roughly mirror each other supine -correct answer_body is lying face upward prone -correct
answer_body is lying face downward superior -correct answer_toward the head; upper, above
inferior -correct answer_toward the feet; lower, below anterior -correct answer_front; in front of;
ventral posterior -correct answer_back; in back of; dorsal medial -correct answer_toward the
midline of the body lateral -correct answer_toward the side of the body or away from its midline
proximal -correct answer_toward or nearest the trunk of the body, or nearest the point of origin
of one of its parts distal -correct answer_away from or farthest from the trunk or the point of
origin of a body part superficial -correct answer_nearer the surface deep -correct answer_farther
away from the body surface sagittal plane -correct answer_a sagittal cut or sections runs along a
lengthwise plane running from front to back. it divides the body or any of its parts into left and
right sides midsagittal plane -correct answer_divides the body into two equal halves vertically
frontal (coronal) plane -correct answer_lengthwise plane running from side to side; divides the
body or any of its parts into anterior and posterior (front and back) portions transverse plane
-correct answer_horizontal or crosswise plane; divides the body or any of its parts into upper and
lower portions oblique plane -correct answer_a cut along a plane that is not parallel to the other
planes; slanted body cavities -correct answer_made up of open spaces or cavities that often
contain well-ordered arrangements of internal organs dorsal body cavities -correct answer_cranial
and spinal ventral body cavities -correct answer_thoracic, pleural, mediastinum, diaphragm,
abdominal, abdominopelvic, pelvic cranial cavity -correct answer_space inside the skull that
contains the braine spinal cavity -correct answer_space inside the vertebral column that contains
the spinal cord thoracic cavity -correct answer_subdivided into mediastinum and right and left
pleural cavities abdominopelvic cavity -correct answer_abdominal cavity and pelvic cavity
abdominopelvic quadrants -correct answer_right upper quadrant, left upper quadrant, right lower
quadrant, left lower quadrant upper abdominopelvic regions -correct answer_right and left
