Answers
anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-The study of body structure
Gross Anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Study of structures that can be
seen with the naked eye
Microscopic Anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-deals with structures too
small to be seen with the naked eye
Regional Anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the study of the
interrelationships of all of the structures in a specific body region
systemic anatomy - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the study of the structures
that make up a discrete body system
Physiology - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-scientific study of the chemistry
and physics of the structures of the body and the ways in which they
work together
,Homeostasis - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-steady internal conditions
maintained by living things
cells - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-The basic unit of structure and function in
all living things
Tissues - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-groups of similar cells that perform a
specific function in an organism
Organs - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-structures of definite form that have
specific functions and are composed of two or more different tissues
Systems - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-consist of related organs that have a
common function
Major body systems (10) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-integumentary,
skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine, circulatory, respiratory,
digestive, urinary, reproductive
integumentary system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-encloses internal body
structures, site of many sensory receptors
skeletal system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-supports the body, enables
movement (with muscular system)
,muscular system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-enables movement, helps
maintain body temperature
nervous system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-detects and processes sensory
information, activated bodily responses
endocrine system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-secretes hormones,
regulates bodily processes
cardiovascular system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-delivers oxygen and
nutrients to tissues, equalizes temperature in the body
lymphatic system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-returns fluids to blood
vessels, cleanses the blood, involved in immunity
respiratory system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-removes carbon dioxide
from the body, delivers oxygen to blood
digestive system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-processes food for use by the
body, removes wastes from undigested food
, urinary system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-controls water balance in the
body, removes wastes from blood and excretes them
male reproductive system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-produces sex
hormones and gametes, delivers gametes to female
female reproductive system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-produces sex
hormones and gametes, supports embryo/fetus until birth, produces
milk for infant
major characteristics of life (6) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-metabolism,
responsiveness, movement, growth, differentiation, reproduction
nervous system - homeostasis - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-detects changes
and sends nerve impulses to counteract the disruption, works rapidly
endocrine system - homeostasis - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-regulates
homeostasis by secreting hormones, works slowly
feedback system - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-cycle of events through which
information about the status of a condition is continually monitored
and fed back to a central control region
