    Study Notes

    Anatomy Basics

    • The crucial region is located inferior to the popliteal region.
    • The nerve impulse travels down an axon, away from the cell body.

    Connective Tissue

    • Connective tissue is made up of three essential components: cells, ground substance, and protein fibers.

    Directional Terms

    • The directional term that pairs with and is opposite to "prone" is "supine".
    • The frontal/coronal plane divides the body into anterior and posterior.

    Body Cavities

    • The anterior/superior cavity of the body contains the mediastinum.
    • The space formed by the two layers of structures that surround the organs in the posterior cavities prevents friction.

    Epithelial Cells

    • Epithelial cells can be ciliated, specifically pseudostratified columnar epithelium, simple columnar epithelium, and stratified columnar epithelium.
    • Epithelial cells do not have specific characteristics.

    Muscle Tissue

    • Skeletal muscle tissue is striated and voluntary.

    Blood Cells

    • True cells found in blood are not platelets, leukocytes, or erythrocytes.

    Neurons

    • The part of a neuron that receives input is the dendrite.

    Anatomical Position

    • In the anatomical position, the structure facing anterior is the umbilicus, palms, toes, and thumbs.
    • The right shoulder is lateral to the umbilicus.

    Organs and Cavities

    • An organ in the abdominopelvic cavity that is completely surrounded by the serous membrane is referred to as an intraperitoneal organ.
    • The body cavities that contain a serous membrane are not the cranial, thoracic, or vertebral cavities.
    • The body cavities that do not have a serous membrane are the vertebral and cranial cavities.

    Tissue Types

    • An organ contains two or more tissue types.
    • Hyaline cartilage connective tissue is characterized by the absence of collagen fibers.

    Connective Tissue

    • Fibrocartilage is found in the meniscus of the knee.
    • The regional name for the left groin is the left inguinal region.
    • Dense irregular connective tissue is found in the reticular layer of the dermis.

    Integument System

    • The ducts of apocrine glands and sebaceous glands in the integument system are associated with hair shafts.
    • The ducts of the merocrine or eccrine glands terminate at the surface of the epidermis.
    • Non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium is found in the esophagus and anus.

    Ossification

    • Intramembranous ossification begins to form bone in the fetus.
    • The epiphyseal line and metaphysis separate the ends of a mature long bone from the long shaft.
    • There are no blood vessels found in mature cartilage.
