PowerPoint® Lecture Slide Presentation by Patty Bostwick-Taylor, Florence-Darlington Technical College The Human Body: An Orientation 1 PART A Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Learning Objectives An Overview of Anatomy and Physiology  Define anatomy and physiology.  Explain how anatomy and physiology are related. Levels of Structural Organization  Name the levels of structural organization that make up the human body and explain how they are related.  Name the organ systems of the body and briefly state the major functions of each system.  Classify by organ system all organs discussed.  Identify the organs shown on a diagram or a dissectible torso. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Learning Objectives Maintaining Life  List functions that humans must perform to maintain life.  List the survival needs of the human body. Homeostasis  Define homeostasis and explain its importance.  Define negative feedback and describe its role in maintaining homeostasis and normal body function. The Language of Anatomy  Describe the anatomical position verbally or demonstrate it.  Use proper anatomical terminology to describe body directions, surfaces, and body planes.  Locate the major body cavities and list the chief organs in each cavity. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Anatomy and Physiology Defined  Two branches of science that deal with body’s parts and function  Anatomy  The science of body structures and relationships  First studies by dissection (cutting apart)  Physiology  The science of body functions Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Structure and Function  Structure and function of the body are closely related  Structure of a part of the body allows performance of certain functions  Examples:  Bones of the skull provide protection for the brain  Thin air sacs of the lungs permit movement of oxygen  More examples???
