six levels of organization of the body --ANS-- chemical level, cellular level, tissue level,
organ level, organ system level, organism level.
The necessary life function that protects our internal environment from our external
environment is provided by what system? --ANS-- Integumentary
The function of movement is provided by what system? --ANS-- muscular
The function of responsiveness is provided by what system? --ANS-- Nervous
The function of digestion is provided by what system? --ANS-- Digestive
Anabolism --ANS-- making more complex cellular structures from simpler ones
Catabolism --ANS-- Break down of complex cellular structures into simpler ones
Excretion involves what systems? --ANS-- digestive, respiratory and urinary
The reproductive system is controlled by what other system? --ANS-- the endocrine
system
Which tissue covers the body surface and lines the cavities of the body. --ANS--
Epithelium
the three steps in cellular respiration are --ANS-- 1. Glycolysis
2. Citric Acid Cycle
3. Electron transport system
What is the purpose of ATP? --ANS-- Powers the cellular activities allowing cells to
have the energy needed to carry out their functions.
Epithelial cells perform what types of functions? --ANS-- * They are responsible for
secretion and absorption.
*They are constantly being divided to replace dead cells that shed away
What are the four basic tissue types? --ANS-- 1. Epithelium
2. Muscle
,3. Connective
4. Nervous tissue
Superficial --ANS-- Toward or at the body surface
Deep --ANS-- Away from the body surface is what direction?
Intermediate --ANS-- Between a more medial and more lateral structure
Medial --ANS-- Toward or at the midline of the body or on the inner side of
inferior --ANS-- Away from the head end or toward the lower part of a structure of the
body
Superior --ANS-- Toward the head end or upper part of a structure (above)
Anterior --ANS-- Toward or at the front of the body
Is the knee proximal or distal to the pelvis? --ANS-- Distal
Is the elbow proximal or distal to the hand? --ANS-- Proximal
Dorsal --ANS-- Toward or at the back of the body
Flexion --ANS-- Closing of a joint
Extension --ANS-- Opening of a joint
In anatomical position are the hands in pronation or supination? --ANS-- Supination
Why are the hands in this supinated position ? --ANS-- Because the bones of the
forearm (radius/ulna) are uncrossed in the supinated position..
Palms have to be facing forward for it to be anatomical position
Define elevation and depression: --ANS-- Elevation- upward movement of a structure
Depression- downward movement of a structure
Define retraction and protraction: --ANS-- Protraction- movement in the anterior
direction
Retraction- movement in the posterior direction
radial deviation --ANS-- A person standing in anatomical position moves their right wrist
laterally towards the radius.
This body division includes the head neck and trunk --ANS-- Axial division
, This is a vertical plane that divides the body into right and left parts --ANS-- midsaggital
These planes lie vertically and divide the body into anterior and posterior parts --ANS--
frontal
A transverse plane divides the body into these two parts --ANS-- Superior and Inferior
These cuts/sections are made diagonally between the horizontal and vertical planes. --
ANS-- oblique
This body cavity protects the nervous system. --ANS-- dorsal body cavity
This body cavity encases the brain. --ANS-- cranial cavity
This cavity encloses the spinal cord. --ANS-- spinal cavity
The frontal plane is also known as the plane. --ANS-- coronal plane
The ventral body cavity is divided into these two cavities --ANS-- 1. Thoracic cavity
2. Abdominopelvic Cavity
This cavity encloses the heart --ANS-- pericardial cavity
The outer surfaces of the organs and body cavities are covered by this double layered
membrane called the --ANS-- Serosa
What is pleurisy? --ANS-- inflammation of the pleurae
The abdominopelvic region is divided into what four quadrants? --ANS-- right upper, left
upper, right lower, and left lower
This region surrounds the naval --ANS-- umbilical region
This region houses the pelvis. --ANS-- illiac region
This cavity houses the teeth and tongue. --ANS-- oral cavity
This cavity houses the eyes --ANS-- orbital cavity
Joints are lined with what? --ANS-- synovial fluid
This cavity contains the tiny ear bones, name them. --ANS-- Middle ear: malleus, incus,
stapes
