1. Macroscopic Gross Anatomy
2. Gross Anatomy is the study of structure large enough to be seen with the naked eye. EX. heart,
lungs and kidneys.
3. Regional Anato- the study of anatomy based on regions or divisions of the body and emphasizing
my the relations between various structures (muscles and nerves and arteries etc.) in
that region
4. Microscopic Deals with structures too small to be seen with the naked eye.
Anatomy
5. Cytology The study of individual cells, the branch of biology that studies the structure and
function of cells
6. Embryology a subdivision of developmental anatomy, concerns developmental changes that
occur before birth
7. Histology The study of tissues,the branch of biology that studies the microscopic structure
of animal or plant tissues
8. Cervical relating to or associated with the neck
9. Intergumentary Major organs: skin, hair, sweat glands, nails, Functions: protects against environ-
system mental hazards; helps regulate body temperature; provide sensory information
10. Skeleton system an internal or external framework of bone, cartilage, or other rigid material
supporting or containing the body of an animal or plant
11. Muscular system 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,
maintenance of posture, and heat production.
12. Nervous system

the body's speedy, electrochemical communication system, consisting of all the
nerve cells of the peripheral and central nervous systems
13. Lymphatic sys- system made of lymph nodes, blood vessels
tem
14. Respiratory sys- made of air way and lungs, The organ system responsible for the intake of oxygen
tem and diffusion of that gas into the blood and the elimination of carbon dioxide
from the body.
15. Urinary system consisting of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra, removes wastes from the
blood and helps to maintain water and electrolyte balance
16. Metabolism includes all chemical reactions that occur in the body, two functions (catabolism
and anabolism)
17. Catabolism provide energy by breaking down complex molecules into simple molecules. (e.g)
Protein-> amino acid
18. Anabolism uses the energy from catabolism to build up the bodys structural and functions
component. aslo called biosynthesis
19. Anterior Toward the front
20. Ventral same as Anterior (toward the front)
21. Posterior Toward the Back
22. Dorsal same as Posterior (toward the back)
23. Anatomical Pos- body erect, feet slightly apart, palms facing forward
tion
24. medial Toward the midline
