    Study Notes

    Muscle Functions

    • Abductors: Muscles that move body parts away from the midline; separate fingers in the hand.
    • Adductors: Muscles that draw body parts inward toward the midline; bring fingers together.

    Biological Processes

    • Defecation: Elimination of waste foods from the body.
    • Digestion: The mechanical and chemical breakdown of food.
    • Ingestion: The act of taking food into the body.
    • Metabolism: Chemical processes in organisms that nourish cells; includes anabolism (building up) and catabolism (breaking down).

    Gland Types

    • Endocrine Glands: Ductless glands releasing hormones directly into the bloodstream; influence bodily functions.
    • Exocrine Glands: Duct glands that produce substances traveling through small ducts; include sweat and oil glands.

    The Heart and Circulation

    • Heart: Muscular, cone-shaped organ maintaining blood flow in the circulatory system.
    • Pulmonary Circulation: Transports blood from the heart to the lungs for purification and back.
    • Systemic Circulation: Circulates blood from the heart throughout the body and returns it.

    Skeletal Structure

    • Joint: Connection between two or more bones in the skeleton.
    • Maxillary Bones: Form the upper jaw structure.
    • Nasal Bones: Create the bridge of the nose.
    • Palatine Bones: Form the hard palate of the mouth.
    • Vomer Bone: Contributes to the nasal septum.
    • Zygomatic Bones: Also known as cheekbones, create the prominence of the cheeks.

    Muscles

    • Deltoid: Triangular muscle acting on shoulder extension and lateral movement.
    • Latissimus Dorsi: Large muscle covering the lower back.
    • Pectoralis Major and Minor: Chest muscles aiding arm movement.
    • Serratus Anterior: Assists in breathing and arm elevation.
    • Trapezius: Stabilizes the scapula and enables shoulder shrugging.

    Nervous System

    • Nerves: Made of bundles of nerve fibers, transmitting impulses through the body.
    • Reflex: An automatic reaction to stimuli that involves sensory and motor neurons; instinctual and unlearned.

    Lymphatic System

    • Lymph: Clear, yellowish fluid that circulates in lymphatic spaces; responsible for waste removal from cells.

    Anatomy and Physiology

    • Anatomy: Study of body structures visible to the naked eye.
    • Physiology: Study of body parts' functions and their activities.
    • Histology: Microscopic study of tiny structures in living tissues.
