Anatomy & Physiology Bio 168 Chapter 1
Anatomy And Physioloy - correct answer Anatomy and physiology (A & P) are about human structure and
function—the biology of the human body
Purpose of A&P - correct answer A & P form a foundation for advanced study in health care, exercise
physiology, pathophysiology, and other related fields
Anatomy - correct answer Study of Form
4 ways to study the human body - correct answer Inspection
Palpation
Auscultation
Percussion
Cadaver dissection - correct answer Cutting and separating human body tissues to reveal tissue
relationships
Comparative anatomy - correct answer Study of multiple species to learn about form, function, and
evolution
medical imaging - correct answer Viewing the inside of the body without surgery
Radiology—branch of medicine concerned with imaging
Gross anatomy - correct answer study of structures that can be seen with the naked eye
Histology - correct answer Examination of tissues with a microscope
Histopathology - correct answer Microscopic examination of tissues for signs of disease
Cytology - correct answer Study of structure and function of cells
, Anatomy & Physiology Bio 168 Chapter 1
Ultrastructure - correct answer View detail under electron microscope
Physiology - correct answer The study of function
Subdisciplines - correct answer Neurophysiology (physiology of nervous system)
Endocrinology (physiology of hormones)
Pathophysiology (mechanisms of disease)
Neurophysiology - correct answer Explains the workings of the nervous system
Endocrinology - correct answer Study of Hormones
Pathophysiology - correct answer Study of the functional changes associated with disease and aging
Comparative physiology - correct answer Study of different species to learn about body functions
Basis for much of our understanding of human physiology and the development of new drugs and
medical procedures
Hippocrates - correct answer Greek physician; "Father of medicine"
Established a code of ethics (Hippocratic Oath)
Urged physicians to seek natural causes of disease rather than attributing them to acts of the gods and
demons
Aristotle - correct answer Believed diseases had supernatural or physical causes
Called supernatural causes of disease theologi
Called natural causes for disease physiologi
This gave rise to the terms physician and physiology
Believed complex structures were built from simpler parts
