Macroscopic Gross Anatomy

is the study of structure large enough to be seen with the naked eye. EX. heart,
Gross Anatomy lungs and kidneys.

the study of anatomy based on regions or divisions of the body and emphasizing the
relations between various structures (muscles and nerves and arteries etc.) in that
Regional Anatomy region


Microscopic Anatomy Deals with structures too small to be seen with the naked eye.

The study of individual cells, the branch of biology that studies the structure and
Cytology function of cells

a subdivision of developmental anatomy, concerns developmental changes that
Embryology occur before birth

The study of tissues,the branch of biology that studies the microscopic structure of
Histology animal or plant tissues


Cervical relating to or associated with the neck

Major organs: skin, hair, sweat glands, nails, Functions: protects against
environmental hazards; helps regulate body temperature; provide sensory
Intergumentary system information


an internal or external framework of bone, cartilage, or other rigid material
Skeleton system supporting or containing the body of an animal or plant

The bodily system that is composed of skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle tissue
and functions in movement of the body or of materials through the body,
Muscular system maintenance of posture, and heat production.


the body's speedy, electrochemical communication system, consisting of all the
Nervous system nerve cells of the peripheral and central nervous systems


Lymphatic system system made of lymph nodes, blood vessels

made of air way and lungs, The organ system responsible for the intake of oxygen
and diffusion of that gas into the blood and the elimination of carbon dioxide from
Respiratory system the body.


consisting of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra, removes wastes from the
Urinary system blood and helps to maintain water and electrolyte balance

includes all chemical reactions that occur in the body, two functions (catabolism and
Metabolism anabolism)

provide energy by breaking down complex molecules into simple molecules. (e.g)
Catabolism Protein-> amino acid

uses the energy from catabolism to build up the bodys structural and functions
Anabolism component. aslo called biosynthesis


Anterior Toward the front

Ventral same as Anterior (toward the front)

Prone To recline one's front: lie on stomach

, metabolic equilibrium actively maintained by several complex biological mechanisms
that operate via the autonomic nervous system to offset disrupting changes
Homeostasis


Ribosomes that are sites of protein synthesis. packing of lipids and protein

Lysosomes Contain digestive enzymes or acid hydrolases and help to break down substances

The sugar is deoxyribose, The bases are Adenine,Thymine,Cytosine,and Guanine.
