Study Notes
Human Anatomy and Physiology Overview
- The transverse (horizontal) plane divides the body into upper and lower parts
- Acid, base, buffer, and blood pH are key concepts in maintaining stable pH levels, with blood pH typically around 7.35 to 7.45
- Transport mechanisms like diffusion, osmosis, and filtration are essential for movement of molecules and water across membranes
- The four stages of cell division (mitosis) are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
- Various microorganisms causing infections include Candida albicans, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Streptococcus pyogenes, and influenza viruses
- Normal flora and antibiotics play a crucial role in protecting against harmful microorganisms, with antibiotic use potentially disrupting the balance of normal flora
- Opportunistic infections often affect individuals with compromised immune systems, such as HIV/AIDS patients
- Bacterial spores are formed by bacteria as a survival strategy in adverse conditions
- The chain of infection components includes infectious agent, reservoir, portal of exit, mode of transmission, portal of entry, and susceptible host
- Modes of transmission for diseases like hepatitis A, hepatitis B, tuberculosis, and influenza are through fecal-oral route, blood or bodily fluids, airborne transmission, and respiratory droplets
- Epidemic, pandemic, and endemic are terms used to describe the occurrence and prevalence of diseases in different contexts
- Immune defense mechanisms involve the first line of defense (intact skin, normal flora, reflexes, and secretions), second line of defense (phagocytes, NK cells, inflammation, fever, and interferon), and third line of defense (T cells and B cells)
