1
anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER-structure
-cutting open
study of the structure of the human body
-external and internal
-physical relationships between body parts
physiology - CORRECT ANSWER-study of function of anatomical structure
-how organs work separate and together
gross anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER-include:
-surface anatomy: what you can see on surface, study of general form and
superficial markings
-regional anatomy: study of all superficial and internal features of a specific
region of the body
systemic anatomy: study of the structure of major organ systems
microscopic anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER-includes:
-cytology: study of cells
-histology: study of tissues and organs under a microscope
levels of organization : chemical level - CORRECT ANSWER--Atoms are the
smallest stable units of matter
-Atoms combine to form molecules
-Molecular shape defines function
levels of organization : cellular level - CORRECT ANSWER--Cells are the smallest
living units
-Cellular structures have specific functions
-Different cell types have different functions
levels of organization:
tissue level - CORRECT ANSWER--A collection of cells working together to
perform a specific function
-4 basic tissue types
Epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous tissues
levels of organization:
organ level - CORRECT ANSWER-Organ: Two or more tissues working together
to perform specific functions
, levels of organization:
organ system level - CORRECT ANSWER-Two or more organs working together
to perform specific functions
levels of organization:
organism level - CORRECT ANSWER-all organ systems working together to
maintain health
the integumentary system - CORRECT ANSWER--skin
