Important Terms to Know for this Unit:
Chapter 1.1: abdominal cavity, abdominopelvic cavity, anatomical position, anatomy, anterior (ventral) body cavity, cranial cavity, frontal plane, middle ear cavities, nasal cavity, oral cavity, orbital cavities, pelvic cavities, physiology, posterior (dorsal) body cavity, sagittal plane, spinal cavity, thoracic cavity, transverse plane
Chapter 1.2: homeostasis, homeostatic imbalance, homeostatic mechanisms, metabolic rate, metabolism, negative feedback, organ, organ system, positive feedback, receptor, tissues
Chapter 1.2: homeostasis, homeostatic imbalance, homeostatic mechanisms, metabolic rate, metabolism, negative feedback, organ, organ system, positive feedback, receptor, tissues
Anatomical PositionThe person is upright, with arms down and palms to the front.
All directional terms reference position with regards to anatomical position … even if the body in question is in a different position. Example: The head is superior (above) to the feet, whether you are standing up, laying down, or doing a handstand. |
Directional TermsImportant terms not shown on the diagram:
--Deep – more internal — Superficial – toward / at body surface Terms are used to describe relative position. Example: the ribs are anterior to the spine Bell Ringer
1.) What is the difference between anatomy and physiology 2.) Why do we study anatomy and physiology together? 3.) What is gross anatomy? 4.) draw an anatomical reference position with the three most important planes of the body. 5.) Which plane is your body moving along during rotational movements? |
Pickle Dissection Lab!
Homework after lab:

2. Name three anatomical planes and the motions they are correlated with.
3. What two body cavities are named for directional terms?
4. What is the difference between the terms superior and cranial?
5. What is the difference between distal and inferior?

__> create a table with the system, major organs and primary functions of each system. Add to your notes.
ANSWER THESE to TEST YOURSELF:
1. List the hierarchy of structure from the smallest living thing to the largest
2. What are the four basic types of tissue found in the human body?
3. Which body systems typically initiate homeostatic responses?
4. What part of the body is stimulated by changes in the environment, thus beginning the process of maintaining homeostasis?
5. Explain the difference between positive and negative feedback in maintaining homeostasis. Give an example of each.
6. What is homeostatic imbalance? Include at least one example in your explanation.
7. Is the body always in a homeostatic state? explain.
8. What are possible consequences of the body's failure to maintain homeostasis?
