Anatomy & Physiology for emergency
care chapter 1 Questions And Answers
Biology - Correct Answer-Study of life; the study of how living organisms perform their
vital functions
Anatomy - Correct Answer-"A cutting open;" the study of internal and external structure,
and the physical relationships beneath body parts
Responsiveness - Correct Answer-Organisms respond to changes in their immediate
environment; also called irritability
Growth - Correct Answer-Organisms increase im size through the growth of cells
Cells - Correct Answer-Simplest units of life
Reproduction - Correct Answer-Organisms reproduce and create subsequent
generations of similar organisms
Movement - Correct Answer-Organisms are capable of producing movement, which
may be internal (transporting food, blood, or other materials) or external (moving
through the environment)
Metabolism - Correct Answer-Organisms rely on complex chemical reactions to provide
the energy required for responsiveness, growth, reproduction, and movement; they
must also synthesize complex chemicals; refers to all of the chemical operations that
take place in the body.
Respiration - Correct Answer-Refers to the absorptiob, transport, and use of oxygen by
cells
Excertion - Correct Answer-Metabolic operations often generate unneeded or potentially
harmful waste products that must be eliminated
Gross Anatomy or Macroscopic Anatomy - Correct Answer-Considers features visible
with the unaided eye
Surface Anatomy - Correct Answer-Refer to the study of general form and superficial
markings
Regional Anatomy - Correct Answer-Considers all of the superficial and internal
features in specific region of the body, such as the head, neck, or trunk
, Systemic Anatomy - Correct Answer-comsiders the structure of major organ sstems
Major Organ Systems - Correct Answer-Groups of organs thatfunction together in a
coordinated manner
Microscopic Anatomy - Correct Answer-Concerns structures that cannot be seen
without magnification
Cytology - Correct Answer-Analyzes the internal structure of individual cells
Histology - Correct Answer-A broader perspective and examines tissues
Tissues - Correct Answer-Groups of specialized cells and cell products that work
together to perform specific functions
Organs - Correct Answer-Formed by combined tissues
Human Physiology - Correct Answer-Study of the functions of the human body
Cell Physiology - Correct Answer-Study of the functions of living cells; includes event at
the chemical or molecular levels-both within cells and between cells
Special Physiology - Correct Answer-Study of the physiology of specific organs
Systemic Physiology - Correct Answer-Considers all aspects of the function of specific
organ systems
Pathological Physiology or Pathology - Correct Answer-Study of the effects kf diseases
on organs or system functions
Chemical (or molecular) Level - Correct Answer-Atoms combine to form molecules with
complex shapes
Cellular Level - Correct Answer-Different molecules can interact toform larger
structures, each as a specific function in a cell
Tissue Level - Correct Answer-Tissue is composed of similar cells that work together to
perform a specific function
Organ Level - Correct Answer-An organ consists of two or more different tissues that
work together to perform specific functions
Organ System Level - Correct Answer-Organs interact in organ systems
