1. Anatomical Posi- Standard positioning of the body as standing; feet together; arms to the side; with
tion head, eyes, and palms of hands forward
2. Cells The basic structural unit of an organism from which living things are created
3. Cellular Func- Processes that include growth, metabolism, replication, protein synthesis, and
tions movement
4. Body Cavities spaces within the body that contain and protect internal organs
5. Organ Systems Functional groups of organs that work together within the body: Circulatory,
integumentary, skeletal, reproductive, digestive, urinary, respiratory, endocrine,
lymphatic, muscular, nervous; 11 total
6. Organelle A specialized part of a cell that has a specific function
7. Organ A self-contained part of an organism that performs a specific function
8. Reference Planes Planes dividing the body to describe locations: sagittal, coronal, and transverse
9. Sagittal/Lateral A vertical plane running from front to back; divides the body or any of its parts into
Plane right and left sides; Left/Right division
10. Coronal/Frontal A vertical plane running from side to side; divides the body or any of its parts into
Plane anterior and posterior portions; Front/Back division
11. Transverse/Axial A horizontal plane; divides the body or any of its parts into upper and lower parts;
Plane Top/Bottom division
12. Tissue A group of cells with similar structure that function together as a unit, but at a
lower level than organs
13. Centrosome Forms mitotic spindle (cell division); Builds microtubules (non dividing cells)
14. Cilia/Flagella Movement

15. Ribosomes Protein Synthesis
16. Rough ER Protein synthesis and processing
17. Smooth ER Fatty acid and steroid (lipid) synthesis
18. Endoplasmic The transport network that is responsible for the transference of proteins through-
Reticulum out a cell; a network of membranes found throughout the cell
19. Golgi Appara- Packages and sends proteins; Assists in the transport, but is not the actual trans-
tus/Complex port network
20. Lysosomes Break down/digest molecules
21. Mitochondria ATP Production
22. Nucleus Controls structure, produces ribosomes, and directs cell
23. Peroxisome Oxidation and detoxification
24. Proteasome Degrades bad proteins
25. Cytoskeleton Cell shape, support, and movement (includes microtubules, microfilaments, and
intermediate filaments)
26. Superior Towards the head of the body
27. Inferior Away from the head
28. Anterior Front
29. Posterior Back
30. Lateral Away from midline
