Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. TUTORIAL ONE Anatomy is the study of body structure. Physiology is the study of body function. Write a sentence which defines the following terms: Cells: Basic structural and functional units of an organism Tissues: Group of similar cells (and the substances surrounding them) that perform a special function Organs: Composed of two or more different tissues and have specific functions Body Systems: Consist of related organs that have a common function Homeostasis: A condition of equilibrium (stability or balance) in the body’s internal environment If a person is standing in ANATOMICAL POSITION they are standing how? If the body is lying face DOWN, it is in the prone position. If the body is lying face UP, it is in the supine position. Directional Terms Superior: means “towards the head” Medial: nearer to the midline of the body Inferior: away from the head Lateral: further from the midline of the body Anterior (ventral): at the front of the body Proximal: nearer the attachment of the limb to the trunk Posterior (dorsal): at the rear of the body Distal: further from the attachment of the limb to the trunk Superficial: on or near the surface of body or organ Central: towards the body core, usually the head & trunk Deep: further away from the surface of body or organ Peripheral toward the body peripheries or extremities 2 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A.

BODY REGIONS AND CAVITIES The abdominopelvic region of the body has been separated into four quadrants and/or nine regions. Label these below. Useful to know for when you are performing abdominal assessments on your patients 3 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. Body Cavities are spaces that help to protect, separate, and support internal organs Which cavities do the following organs belong in? Organ Cavity Stomach Abdominal Heart Thoracic Lungs Thoracic Brain Cranial Small Intestine Abdominal Urinary Bladder Pelvic Kidneys Abdominal Liver Abdominal You can use boundaries to describe where each cavity is: Cranial cavity - Cranial bones Vertebral cavity – Spinal column Thoracic cavity – Superior boundary: base of neck; inferior: diaphragm; anterior: sternum and costal cartilage of ribs; posterior: thoracic vertebrae and ribs. Abdominal cavity Superior boundary: diaphragm, Anterior boundary: abdominal muscles Posterior boundary: vertebrae Pelvic cavity - Superior boundary: symphysis pubis and sacrum; inferior: pelvic floor muscles; anterior: symphysis pubis and pelvic bone; posterior: pelvic bones/sacrum and coccyx; lateral: pelvic bones PLANES are imaginary flat surfaces that are used to divide the body or organs into definite areas. Parasagittal plane divides the body or an organ into left and right side. Midsagittal plane divides the body or an organ into two equal sized portions (left and right) through the midline. Frontal plane divides the body or an organ into front (anterior) and back (posterior) portions. Transverse (horizontal) plane divides the body or an organ into upper (superior) or lower (inferior) portions. 4 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.).

The nervous system and endocrine system are the most important contributors to maintaining homeostasis. The two types of Feedback mechanisms are negative feedback and positive feedback. Components of a feedback system. Fill in the gaps using the words provided: A stimulus is any disruption to a controlled Effector condition. Shut off A receptor is a sensor that monitors the environment and responds by sending information to a control centre. Stimulus The control centre/integrator determines the set point to be maintained, analyses input and Muscle sends response to…. Sensor the effector which can be a muscle or gland brings about the response. Gland Feedback is received by the control centre/integrator and once equilibrium is restored the effectors are shut off. Receptor Control centre/integrator Write an example for each of these: Negative Feedback: thermoregulation, blood sugar regulation Positive Feedback: blood clotting, onset of uterine contractions and childbirth 6 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. THE CELL Cells are composed of three main parts: Cell membrane forms the cell’s outer boundary and separates the cell’s internal environment from the outside environment. It covers and protects the cell. It is a selectively permeable barrier, allowing the passage of some things and not others. It links to other cells and plays a role in cellular communication. Cytoplasm contains all the cellular contents between the plasma membrane and the nucleus. Consists of: The cytosol is the fluid portion (mostly water). This is intra-cellular fluid. This is the site of many chemical reactions. Reactions provide the building blocks for cell maintenance, structure, function, and growth. Organelles are subcellular structures embedded in the cytosol, having characteristic shapes & specific functions. The nucleus is a large organelle that contains DNA in molecules called chromosomes. Each chromosome consists of a single molecule of DNA and associated packaging proteins. A chromosome contains thousands of hereditary units called genes. 7 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced.

(2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. CELLULAR RESPIRATION Fill in the blanks using the words provided. Metabolism refers to all biochemical reaction in the body including catabolic reactions (which break larger molecules into smaller ones) and anabolic reactions (which build larger molecules). ATP provides the cell with small amounts of energy. The energy in ATP can be released by breaking high-energy bonds to release phosphate. This forms ADP. ADP can be recycled to form ATP again by the addition of a phosphate. Glycolysis (the breakdown of a glucose molecule) occurs in the cytoplasm and produces 2 molecules of ATP and pyruvic acid. Pyruvic acid moves into the mitochondrion and another ATP are released in the citric acid cycle which also generates carbon dioxide and heat. Most of the cell’s ATP is gained from the electron transport train where upwards of 28 molecules of ATP is produced, along with water and heat. If there is insufficient oxygen available, the citric acid cycle and electron transport chain will not operate. Instead, anaerobic respiration occurs. This produces significantly less ATP and will also produce lactic acid which travels to the liver for storage. Lactic acid can be recycled to pyruvic acid when there is oxygen available.

Sebaceous gland. 1.) __________ Epidermis. 4) ________ Hair follicle. 2.) ___________ Sweat gland. 3.) ___________ Dermis. 5) ________ Subcutaneous/ hypodermis Nerve fibre. Arrector pili muscle. Nerve. 13 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. Describe six functions of the skin. 1. Skin protects the underlying tissues from damage due to microbes, abrasion, chemicals, water loss or water entry & UV light. 2. Sensory Receptors detect touch, pressure, vibration, tickle, heat, cold, and pain. 3. Excretion Excretes approximately 400 mL of water/day, a small amounts salt, CO2, ammonia & urea. 4. Synthesis of Vitamin D. Cholesterol is converted to Vitamin D in the skin when it is exposed to UV light. 5. Stores blood. The skin has an extensive network of blood vessels which can constrict during shock. Blood is re-directed to supply vital organs. 6. Assists in temperature regulation. The skin contains receptors to detect temperatures changes. The skin excretes sweat which then evaporates, cooling the body. Dermal blood vessels dilate in hot weather increasing heat loss from the skin, constrict in cold weather preventing heat loss. New cells are produced in the lower layer of the epidermis. As new cells are pushed towards the surface, they lose contact with blood vessels in the dermis. What does this lack of nourishment and oxygen have on them? Cell death Fill in the gaps. The epidermis consists mostly of cells containing a tough fibrous protein called keratin that protects the skin and underlying tissues from abrasions, heat, microbes, and chemicals. It consists of cells that have died to protect the underlying dermis. Dead skin cells are shed from the surface (50,000 dead cells every minute). Other cells, melanocytes, produce melanin which absorbs UV radiation to protect the skin. The single most important risk factor for skin cancer is over-exposure to UV radiation. The deeper dermis is composed of connective tissue containing collagen fibers (for strength) and elastic fibers (to return its’ original position after stretching). Deep to the dermis is the sub-cutaneous layer/ hypodermis composed of areolar and adipose tissues. Its function is to attach the skin to underlying tissue and store fat. 14 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. MEMBRANES Fill in the gaps. Mucous membranes line body cavities that open to the exterior. Serous membranes line body cavities that do not open to the exterior. The thoracic and abdominal cavities are lined by thin, slippery, double-layered membranes called serous membranes. These membranes adhere to the outer surface of the organs or ‘viscera, and then double-back to line the body cavity wall. Visceral layer covers the organs within the cavities e.g., heart, lungs, and digestive organs. Parietal layer lines the cavity walls. Serous fluid between the two layers of the serous membrane reduces friction and allows the viscera to slide somewhat during movements. MICROBIOLOGY Write a short sentence to define or explain each of the following key terms. Microbiology: Study of organisms too small to be seen without a microscope. Disease: an infection which harms the host causing damage to cells and tissues Microorganism: Microscopic organism includes bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, and prions Pathogen: a microorganism or infectious agent that causes disease Colonisation: presence, growth, and multiplication of an organism without observable clinical symptoms (disease) or immune reaction in a patient – so they don’t have the disease, but they have the microorganism. 15 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. Contagious: an infectious disease that spreads from person to person. Is a person who is colonised with an organism contagious? Yes. Carrier: people or animals with no symptoms of illness but with pathogens in their body who can transfer to others Infection: invasion of a pathogenic microorganism into the tissues of a host where they multiply causing an immune response with or without symptoms Symptomatic: a pathogen multiplies within a host and causes injury to cells or tissues so host has clinical signs and symptoms Asymptomatic: a pathogen multiplies within a host but does not cause injury to cells or tissues so has no signs or symptoms. Virulence: the potency of a pathogen to infect a host and cause death in the host CHAIN OF INFECTION The presence of a pathogen does not always result in disease. Different elements form a chain linking together to enhance this process. This is called the Chain of Infection. An infection will develop if the chain remains intact. (Crisp, Taylor, Douglas and Rebeiro, 2013) Breaking this chain protects patients and prevents 16 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. Work through answering these questions on each of the elements from the chain of infection. Define ‘Reservoir’: Habitat in which an agent can live, grow and multiply. Identify six reservoirs of microorganisms and state which is the most likely to cause disease in humans. 1. Humans 2. Zoonoses (animals) 3. Soil 4. Water 5. Air 6. Food What are the six factors which provide the best environment for survival of a pathogen in the reservoir? 1. Warm or moist environment 2. Isotonic surroundings (to avoid cell shrinkage/bursting) 3. Oxygen (depending on bacteria) 4. Temperature close to 37 deg C 5. pH close to 7 6. Availability of nutrients What is a Fomite? Object or materials likely to carry an infection. Define ‘Portal of Exit’: Path by which a pathogen leaves a host. Identify six portals of exit from a human. 1. Blood 2. Respiratory tract 3. Broken skin 4. Anus 5. Mucous membranes 6. GI tract Define ‘Mode of transmission’: The way in which an infectious agent may be transmitted from its’ reservoir to a susceptible host. 17 All images from Patton K.T., & Thibodeau G.A. (2016). Anatomy & Physiology (9 ed.). Elsevier., unless otherwise referenced. Explain how each of the following modes spreads disease. Direct contact: skin-to-skin contact, kissing, and sexual intercourse. Direct contact also refers to contact with soil or vegetation harbouring infectious organisms. Within direct contact we also consider Vertical Transmission – from mother to baby through blood) Indirect: transfer of an infectious agent from a reservoir to a host by suspended air particles, inanimate objects (vehicles), or animate intermediaries (vectors). Droplet: spray with relatively large, short-range aerosols produced by sneezing, coughing, or even talking (direct contact if
