Study Notes
- Anatomy is the study of an organism's structure, including gross anatomy (visible body parts) and microscopic anatomy (small components).
- Physiology examines the body functions of living organisms, focusing on how the body operates.
- Cells are the basic units of the body, varying in shape and function, with specialization to perform specific tasks.
- Tissues are groups of cells with a common function, while organs are formed by groups of tissues working together.
- Organ systems are made up of a series of organs that collaborate to perform specific functions in the body.
- Cells form tissues, tissues form organs, and organs make up organ systems in the body.
- Cell structures include sex cells and somatic cells, with the nucleus containing genetic material and the cell membrane controlling movement and signaling.
- Organelles within cells have specific functions related to cell structure, growth, maintenance, and metabolism.
- Cellular respiration involves three types of reactions (glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain) to release energy from organic compounds.
- Cellular transport mechanisms include diffusion, filtration, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis, regulating the movement of materials in and out of cells to maintain homeostasis.
