Study Notes
Body Organization
- Body organization progresses through several levels: Chemical, Cellular, Tissue, Organ, Organ system, and Organismal.
Life Functions
- Essential life functions include:
- Maintaining boundaries
- Movement
- Responsiveness
- Digestion
- Metabolism
- Excretion
- Reproduction
- Growth
Survival Needs
- Vital survival needs encompass:
- Nutrients
- Oxygen
- Water
- Appropriate temperature
- Appropriate pressure
Oxygen's Role
- Oxygen is crucial for the release of energy from food via cellular respiration.
Anatomy vs. Physiology
- Anatomy focuses on the structure and shape of body parts.
- Physiology examines how these parts function and work together.
Directional Terms
- Inferior (caudal): refers to a position below.
- Superior (cranial): denotes a position above.
- Anterior (ventral): indicates being at the front.
- Posterior (dorsal): suggests being at the back.
- Medial: means toward the midline.
- Lateral: means toward the side.
- Intermediate: lies between two structures.
- Proximal: indicates closeness to a reference point.
- Distal: refers to being far from a reference point.
- Superficial: describes being on the surface.
- Deep: indicates a position toward the center.
Planes of the Body
- Frontal (Coronal) plane: divides the body into anterior and posterior.
- Sagittal plane: creates a right and left division; can be uneven.
- Midsagittal plane: produces an equal right and left division.
- Transverse plane: separates the body into superior and inferior parts.
Anatomical Relations
- The lungs are lateral to the heart, while the heart is intermediate to the lungs.
Specific Regions
- The umbilical region contains the navel.
Cavity Separation
- The transverse plane can separate the thoracic cavity from the abdominopelvic cavity.
