Questions and Answers

Why is a study of anatomy, physiology, and histology important to a cosmetologist?

It is important because as a cosmetologist you need to recognize any diseases on the human body so you can detect them before performing a service.

Define anatomy, physiology, and histology.

Anatomy is the study of human body structures that can be seen with the naked eye; physiology is the study of functions and activities performed by body structures; histology is the study of tiny structures found in living tissue.

Name and describe the basic structures of a cell.

Protoplasm is a colorless jelly-like substance found in cells which forms elements such as proteins, fats, and carbohydrates; the nucleus is the dense active protoplasm found at the center of a cell; the cell membrane is the part that encloses the protoplasm; cytoplasm is the watery fluid cells need for growth.

Explain cell metabolism and its purpose.

<p>Cell metabolism is the chemical process that takes place in living organisms where cells are nourished and carry out their activities.</p> Signup and view all the answers

List and describe the functions of the four types of tissue found in the human body.

<p>Connective tissue binds together, protects, and supports body parts; epithelial tissue is a protective covering on body surfaces; muscle tissue moves various body parts; nerve tissue carries messages to the brain.</p> Signup and view all the answers

List and describe the functions of the nine major organs found in the body.

<ol> <li>Brain - controls the body; 2) Eyes - controls the body's vision; 3) Heart - circulates the blood; 4) Kidneys - excretes water and waste products; 5) Lungs - supply oxygen to the blood; 6) Liver - removes waste created by digestion; 7) Skin - covers the body and is an internal protective coating; 8) Stomach - digests food along with intestines; 9) Intestines - digests food along with the stomach.</li> </ol> Signup and view all the answers

Name the 11 train body systems and their functions.

<ol> <li>Circulatory - controls steady circulation of the blood throughout the body; 2) Digestive - breaks down food into nutrients and wastes; 3) Endocrine - affects growth, development, sexual functions, and health of the entire body; 4) Excretory - purifies the body by eliminating all matter; 5) Integumentary - serves as a protective coating and helps regulate body temperature; 6) Lymphatic/immune - protects the body from disease; 7) Muscular - covers, shapes, and holds the skeletal system; 8) Nervous - controls and coordinates all other systems; 9) Reproductive - produces offspring; 10) Respiratory - enables breathing and supplies blood with oxygen; 11) Skeletal - forms physical foundation.</li> </ol> Signup and view all the answers

List the primary functions of the skeletal system.

<p>It gives shape to the body, protects various internal structures and organs, serves as attachments for muscles, and acts as levers.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Name and describe the three types of muscular tissue found in the body.

<ol> <li>Striated - muscles attached to bones and are voluntary; 2) Non-striated - involuntary muscles that function automatically; 3) Cardiac - involuntary muscle of the heart.</li> </ol> Signup and view all the answers

Name and describe the types of nerves found in the body and how they react.

<p>Ophthalmic - supplies impulses to the skin of the forehead; Mandibular - affects the muscles of the chin, lower lip, and external ear; Maxillary - supplies impulses to the upper part of the face.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Name and briefly describe the types of blood vessels found.

<p>Arteries - carry oxygenated blood away from the heart; Arterioles - small arteries delivering blood to capillaries; Capillaries - bring nutrients to cells and carry away waste; Venules - collect blood from capillaries into veins; Veins - carry blood containing waste back to the heart and lungs for cleaning.</p> Signup and view all the answers

List and describe the composition of blood.

<p>Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the body and transport carbon dioxide back; White blood cells destroy disease-causing toxins and bacteria; Platelets contribute to blood clotting; Plasma carries food and other useful substances to cells and removes carbon dioxide.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Name and discuss the two main types of glands found in the human body.

<ol> <li>Endocrine glands release hormonal secretions directly into the bloodstream; 2) Exocrine glands produce substances that travel through small tube-like ducts.</li> </ol> Signup and view all the answers

List the organs of the excretory system and their functions.

<p>Kidneys excrete urine (water and waste products); liver discharges toxins produced during digestion; skin eliminates waste through perspiration; large intestine eliminates decomposed and undigested food; lungs exhale carbon dioxide.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Study Notes

Importance of Anatomy, Physiology, and Histology

  • Recognizing diseases on the body is essential for cosmetologists to ensure safe services.

Definitions

  • Anatomy: Study of human body structures visible to the naked eye.
  • Physiology: Study of functions and activities performed by body structures.
  • Histology: Study of microscopic structures in living tissues.

Basic Structures of a Cell

  • Protoplasm: Colorless, jelly-like substance forming proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
  • Nucleus: Dense protoplasm at the center, controlling cellular activities.
  • Cell Membrane: Encloses the protoplasm, maintaining cell integrity.
  • Cytoplasm: Watery fluid within cells necessary for growth and function.

Cell Metabolism

  • Refers to chemical processes in living organisms for nourishment and activity.

Types of Tissue and Their Functions

  • Connective Tissue: Binds, protects, and supports body parts.
  • Epithelial Tissue: Acts as a protective covering on surfaces, including skin.
  • Muscle Tissue: Facilitates movement of body parts.
  • Nerve Tissue: Carries messages and signals to the brain.

Organs

  • Composed of specialized tissues designed to perform specific functions.

Major Organs and Their Functions

  • Brain: Controls body functions.
  • Eyes: Responsible for vision.
  • Heart: Circulates blood throughout the body.
  • Kidneys: Excretes waste and water.
  • Lungs: Supplies oxygen to blood.
  • Liver: Removes waste from digestion.
  • Skin: Protects body and acts as a barrier.
  • Stomach and Intestines: Digest food.

Body Systems and Their Functions

  • Circulatory System: Maintains blood circulation.
  • Digestive System: Breaks down food into nutrients.
  • Endocrine System: Regulates growth, development, and health.
