Anatomical position - ANS✔✔---stand erect, facing forward, arms are at
the side with palms facing forward
- feet are parallel and arms and legs are slightly held away from torso
Anatomical planes - ANS✔✔ ---- coronal/ frontal (front and back)
- transverse/ cross sectional (top and bottom)
- sagittal/ or median (left and right)
Anatomical directions - ANS✔✔ -- identifies the location of structures in
relation to other structures
Superior - ANS✔✔ -- toward the head
Inferior - ANS✔✔ -- away from the head
Anterior - ANS✔✔ -- toward the front
Posterior - ANS✔✔ -- toward the back (dorsal)
,Lateral - ANS✔✔---Away from the midline of the body
Medial - ANS✔✔---toward the midline
Distal - ANS✔✔---farther from the origin of a body part or the point of
attachment of a limb to the body trunk
Proximal - ANS✔✔---Closer to the origin of the body part or the point of
attachment of a limb to the body trunk
Lumbar - ANS✔✔---lower back
Orbital - ANS✔✔---eye cavity
Crural - ANS✔✔---leg
Axillary region - ANS✔✔---the area in and around the axilla (armpit)
Cephalic - ANS✔✔---pertaining to the head
Occipital region - ANS✔✔---back of head
Respiratory system - ANS✔✔---preforms critical tasks involved in
transporting oxygen from the atmosphere into the body's cells and
removing carbon dioxide from the body's cells
- maximized surface area for gas exchange
Superficial - ANS✔✔---Towards the surface of the body
Deep - ANS✔✔---Is towards the inferiors of the body
Saggital plane - ANS✔✔---
Frontal plane - ANS✔✔---Anterior and posterior divisions
Transverse plane - ANS✔✔---Superior and inferior divisions
Lymph is - ANS✔✔---Interstitial fluid that filters through hundreds of
lymphatic vessels at lymph nodes (small organs)
Lymph nodes are concentrated at? - ANS✔✔ ---- neck, armpit, and groin
Lymphocytes
, What do lymph nodes contain? - ANS✔✔---lymphocytes and
macrophages which seek out pathogens in the fluid
B Lymphocytes makes - ANS✔✔---Antibodies targeting pathogens so
that other cells can destroy the
What is filtered lymph? - ANS✔✔---"Cleaned" blood plasma that is
returned to the cardiovascular system via lymphatic vessels
What are the four parts of the cardiac cycle? - ANS✔✔ ---- volume
change
- pressure change
- EKG
- heart sounds
What system of the cardiac cycle ensures that the heart chambers contract in
a coordinated way? - ANS✔✔ -- Conduction system or internal control
Systole - ANS✔✔ -- Contraction of the VENTRICLES
- maximum pressure is the numerator of a BP
reading Diastole - ANS✔✔ -- Rest phase
- ventricles relax and refill
- minimum pressure denominator of BP reading
Pathway of conduction system/ internal control of the cardiac cycle?
- ANS✔✔---1. Triggering of an impulse w/in the sinoatrial (SA) node
2. Impulse spreads to the right and left atria, causing them to contact
and forcing blood into the ventricles
3. impulse reaches the atrioventricular (AV) node, and travels along the
atrioventricular bundle down the right and legs branches in the septum
and finally along the purkinje fibers in the walls of the ventricles, causing
the filled ventricles to contract (systole)
4. Diastole is followed which is the rest phase that allows the ventricles
to relax and refill
