ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OPENSTAX
ACTUAL PAPER SOLVED QUESTIONS
WITH VERIFIED ANSWERS
◉ Gross Anatomy
Answer: Also called Macroscopic anatomy. The study of larger
structures in the body. Visible without magnification.
◉ Microscopic Anatomy
Answer: The study of structures
that can be observed only with the use of a microscope or other
magnification devices
◉ Cytology
Answer: The study of Cells.
◉ Histology
Answer: The study of Tissues.
◉ Regional Anatomy
Answer: The study of the interrelationships of all of the structures
in a specific body region, such as the abdomen. Studying regional
anatomy helps us appreciate the interrelationships of body
,structures, such as how muscles, nerves, blood vessels, and other
structures work together to serve a particular body region.
◉ Systemic Anatomy
Answer: The study of the structures that
make up a discrete body system—that is, a group of structures
that work together to perform a unique body function. For
example, a systemic anatomical study of the muscular system
would consider all of the skeletal muscles of the body.
◉ Physiology
Answer: The scientific study of the chemistry
and physics of the structures of the body and the ways in which
they work together to support the functions of life. Much
of the study of physiology centers on the body's tendency toward
homeostasis.
◉ Homeostasis
Answer: The state of steady internal
conditions maintained by living things. The study of physiology
certainly includes observation, both with the naked eye and
with microscopes, as well as manipulations and measurements.
◉ Neurophysiology
, Answer: The study of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves and how
these work together to perform functions as complex and diverse
as
vision, movement, and thinking.
◉ Fundamental Levels of Organization
Answer: subatomic particles, atoms, molecules,
organelles, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organisms and
biosphere
◉ Molecules
Answer: The chemical building blocks of all body structures.
◉ Cell
Answer: The smallest independently functioning unit of a living
organism. Even bacteria, which are extremely small,
independently-living organisms, have a cellular structure. Each
bacterium is a single cell. All living structures of human anatomy
contain cells, and almost all functions of human physiology are
performed in cells or are initiated by cells.
◉ Organelles
Answer: flexible membranes that enclose cytoplasm, a water-
based cellular fluid together with
a variety of tiny functioning units
