Psychophysiology: the study of internal systems of nerves, hormones, metabolism, and immunity that affects health The Biopsychosocial Approach Multiple factors are at play in the development and maintenance of disease Biology (body) Psychology (mind) Sociology (environment) Systems of the body: 1. Circulatory (heart/blood vessels) 2. Respiratory (which includes your lungs) 3. Nervous (nerves/spinal cord) 4. Muscular 5. Skeletal 6. Digestive (+ urinary) 7. Endocrine (hormones) 8. Lymphatic (immune system) 9. Reproductive 10. Integumentary (skin/hair; in-teg-u-men-try) Brain and body systems function and work together Rely on each other (e.g., Circulatory + Respiratory; or Nervous + Muscular) The Nervous System CREDITS: This presentation template was created by Slidesgo, and includes icons by Flaticon, and infographics & images by Freepik The interaction between the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) AUTONOMIC Nervous System (ANS) 2 complementary branches Sympathetic (SNS) Parasympathetic (PNS) Controls core adaptive systems “Fight or Flight” (SNS): Many of these physiological changes serve to direct the flow of blood and oxygen to the skeletal muscles, enabling the organism to mount a quick motor response to a potentially threatening event. “Rest & Digest” (PNS) The Brain Can be divided into 3 parts: Forebrain Midbrain Hindbrain Forebrain Thalamus Hypothalamus Cerebral cortex Midbrain and Hindbrain Midbrain: purple shaded area Hindbrain: Medulla Pons Cerebellum The limbic system Amygdala Hippocampus Neurons Neurotransmitters Neurotransmitters Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system prompts the secretion of two neurotransmitters, epinephrine norepinephrine The Endocrine System CREDITS: This presentation template was created by Slidesgo, and includes icons by Flaticon, and infographics & images by Freepik The Endocrine system The Cardiovascular System CREDITS: This presentation template was created by Slidesgo, and includes icons by Flaticon, and infographics & images by Freepik The Cardiovascular System Comprises the heart, blood vessels, and the blood Blood pressure Text Blood cells Made in bone marrow Red blood cells: carry oxygen White blood cells: part of the immune system, secrete enzymes that engulf bacteria The Respiratory System CREDITS: This presentation template was created by Slidesgo, and includes icons by Flaticon, and infographics & images by Freepik The Respiratory System Respiration is controlled by the medulla in the brainstem The Digestive System CREDITS: This presentation template was created by Slidesgo, and includes icons by Flaticon, and infographics & images by Freepik Digestive System Digestion is a process that converts food into a suitable form for absorption. Digestion Mouth: saliva Stomach: gastric juices Pancreas: enzymes and insulin Liver: bile How Does Food Turn Into Poo? | The GutDr Explains (3D Gut Animation) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B5W4PWWX7U&t=19s The Renal System CREDITS: This presentation template was created by Slidesgo, and includes icons by Flaticon, and infographics & images by Freepik The Renal System Consists of the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra. Kidneys produce urine -> control water balance Urine moves to the bladder The Reproductive System CREDITS: This presentation template was created by Slidesgo, and includes icons by Flaticon, and infographics & images by Freepik The Reproductive System The anterior pituitary lobe produces the gonadotropic hormones, which control development of the ovaries in females and the testes in males. The Reproductive System
