Chapter 1 Human Body Orientation and Homeostasis Dr. Christian Emmanuel P. Enriquez Instructor – University of San Carlos School of Health Care Professions, Department of Nursing Anatomy Describes the structures of the body including  What they are made of  Where they are located  Associated structures Definition Physiology of Terms  Is the study of the function of biological systems including, of course, anatomical structures  It includes both individual and cooperative functions Anatomy & Physiology forms the foundation for understanding the body’s parts and functions in concert. The study of structure and function relationships in biology Human Physiology Physiology comes from Ancient Greek: physis, "nature, origin"; and - logia, "study of". Anatomy & Physiology together is the study of structure-function relationships in biological systems Human Physiology is the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of humans, their organs, and the cells of which they are composed. Physiology includes Biochemistry, Biophysics, Cell Biology & Chemistry, Endocrinology, Genetics, Genomics, Immunology, Kinesiology, Neurobiology, Pathology, etc. Relationships between Anatomy & Physiology Cell physiology: Organ physiology: processes within functions of specific and between cells organs Systemic Pathological physiology: physiology: effects functions of an of diseases organ system Relationshi ps between Anatomy & Physiology Relationshi Microscopic anatomy Gross anatomy or macroscopic anatomy ps between Examines cells and Examines large visible molecules structures Anatomy & Surface anatomy: Physiology Cytology: study of exterior features cells and their Regional anatomy: structures body areas cyt = cell Systemic anatomy: organ systems Developmental Histology: study anatomy: from tissues and their conception to death structures Clinical anatomy: hist = tissue medical specialties Levels of Organization groups of organs and tissues that work together to perform important jobs for the body. Body System Body Regions Body Cavities Essential Functions of Body Cavities 1. Protect organs from accidental shocks 2. Permit changes in size and shape of internal organs Ventral body cavity (coelom)  Divided by the diaphragm to Thoracic cavity and Abdominopelvic cavity Homeost atic Regulati on Homeostasis – Keeping our organ systems in balance
