Study Notes
Anatomy and Physiology Basics
- Anatomy is the study of body structures, which can be further divided into:
- Gross anatomy: the study of large body structures visible to the eye (e.g., heart, lungs)
- Microscopic anatomy: the study of structures too small to be seen by the eye, viewed using a microscope
- Physiology is the study of body functions and relates to the operation of specific organ systems
- Anatomy and Physiology are intertwined, as structure reflects function, meaning the structure of an organ or cell determines its function
Levels of Structural Organisation
- The levels of structural organisation, from simplest to most complex, are:
- Chemical
- Cells
- Tissues
- Organs
- Organ systems
- Organism
Organ Systems and Necessary Life Functions
- There are 11 organ systems that work together to perform necessary life functions, including:
- Movement
- Responsiveness
- Digestion
- Metabolism
- Excretion
- Reproduction
- Growth
Survival Needs
- The basic survival needs of the human body include:
- Nutrients
- Oxygen
- Water
- Normal body temperature
- Atmospheric pressure
National Health Priorities
- The Australian Government has identified several national health priorities, including:
- Cancer
- Cardiovascular disease
- Injury prevention and control
- Mental health
- Diabetes
- Asthma
- Obesity
- Dementia
- Arthritis and musculoskeletal conditions
