BSC2085 - Exam 1 Full Review UPDATED ACTUAL Questions
and CORRECT Answers
anatomy study of structure
physiology study of function
Anatomy and physiology are _____ and never entirely complementary
separable.
What did the publication of Terminologia Anatomica do? standardized the different anatomical terms for the body, helpful because then
anatomists from different countries could use the same terms when discussing
anatomy
Physiology provides _____ to anatomy. meaning
Anatomy is what makes physiology _______. possible
________ determines _____ _. Form, function
inspection look at appearance
palpation feeling a structure with the hands
auscultation listening to sounds produced by the body
percussion tap on the body, feel for resistance, and listen to emitted sound for abnormalities
dissection cutting and separating human body tissues to reveal tissue relationships; use a
cadaver (dead human body)
comparitive anatomy study (ex: dissection) of multiple species to learn about form, function, and
evolution
exploratory surgery opening the living body to see what is wrong; now replaced by medical imaging
to view inside without surgery
gross anatomy structures visible with the naked eye
Subdivisions of gross anatomy include: surface anatomy, regional anatomy, systemic anatomy, clinical anatomy, and
developmental anatomy
surface anatomy external features (ex: integumentary system)
regional anatomy body areas
, systemic anatomy organ systems
clinical anatomy medical specialties (pathological anatomy - changes that occur during illness,
radiographic anatomy - structures seen using specialized imaging techniques)
developmental anatomy from conception to death, includes embryology
What are the two subdisciplines of anatomy? gross anatomy and microscopic anatomy
microscopic anatomy requires the aid of a microscope
What are the subdivisions of microscopic anatomy? cytology and histology
cytology just looking at cells, study of structure and function of cells; fine detail
(ultrastructure) may be resolved using an electron microscope
histology examination of tissues with microscope
histopathology subdivision of histology, looking at tissues for signs of disease, microscopic
examination of tissues for signs of disease
Physiology uses the ____ _. methods of experimental science
What are the four subdisciplines of physiology? neurophysiology, endocrinology, systemic physiology, pathophysiology
neurophysiology physiology of the nervous system
endocrinology physiology of hormones (think about endocrine glands)
systemic physiology functions of an organ system
pathophysiology mechanisms of disease
comparitive physiology study of different species to learn about body functions
A lot of what we know about human physiology is physiology
derived from examining the ___ of other animals.
Comparative physiology is also responsible for our drugs, medical procedures
development of new ________ and _.
Correctly state the hierarchy of complexity, from smallest atoms, molecules, organelles, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism
to largest:
_____ is the functional unit of all life. Cell
Molecules composed of ____ _. atoms
