Medical Terminology Final Exam Review - Fall 2024 Know your terms!! Know how to correctly use connecting vowels!! Abdominopelvic The andomminopelvic region are the left hypochoridriac , right hypochoridriac regions epigatric, right lumbar, umbilical region, right iniual region, hypogastric and left initial region.Thes region contain the stomach, liver, pancreas, spleen, gallbladder, kidneys, small intestine, and most of the large intestine. Anatomic position Anatomic position is when the body is standing upright and facing forward. Arthrodesis Arthrodesis is a surgery that fuses two bones in a joint together. Word part Artho=joint-desis=bind together Arthrolysis Arthrolysis is loosening adhesions in an ankylosed joint to restore mobility. Word part Artho=joint- lysis=destruction Arthroplasty Arthroplasty is reconstruction surgery of a joint Word part Artho=joint-plasty=surgical procedure to repair parts of the body. Body Cavities The body includes multiple body cavities such as the cranial,vertebral,thoracic,adomina, and the pelvic cavity. Cranial contains the skull The verteabral contains the vertebrate The thorectic contains the heart, lungs and other organs The abdominal cavity contains lower organs The pelvic cavity contains the reproductive organs Body Planes (Frontal Plane) - A vertical plane running from side to side; divides the body or any of its parts into anterior and posterior portions. Sagittal Plane (Lateral Plane) - A vertical plane running from front to back; divides the body or any of its parts into right and left sides. Axial Plane (Transverse Plane) - A horizontal plane; divides the body or any of its parts into upper and lower parts. Median plane - Sagittal plane through the midline of the body; divides the body or any of its parts into right and left halves. Cell A cell is the basic building block of all living things. Cell types A lymphocytes cell is an immune cell thaat is madde of bone marrow and is food in the *lymphocytes blood and in lymph tissue.A Basophils cell is an immune cell that has small particles *basophils that have enzymes that are released during allergic reactions and asthma.A eosinophils *eosinophils is a cell that has small particles that have enzymes that are released during allergic *neutrophils reactions, infections and asthma. A neutrophil is a cell that helps the body fight infections.The cells are all types of white blood cells. Chromosomes Chromosomes is a thread-like structure that contains the DNA inside the nucleus of a plant and animal.

Otorhinolaryngology The study of disease of the ear nnose and thoart. Patella Patella is the knee bone Radiograph The use of radiation (such as x-rays) or other imaging technologies (such as ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging) to diagnose or treat disease. Red bone marrow vs. Red bone marrow contains hematopietic stem cell which is yellow bone marrow Yellow bone marrow is mostly fat cells -rrhaphy Surgical repair -rrhea Flowing or didcharge -rrhexis rupture Spelling in Medical Is important Terminology Spina bifida A condition when spinal cord do form properly Spondylolisthesis When bones in your vertebrae slip foreward. Tibia The lager boone between the knee and ankle Tissue types The muscle tissue help with movement in the body,the nerve tissue is to help sensation *muscle and to help move muscle tissue, Loose nective tissue is to store fat, help move nutrients *nerve and other substances between tissues and organs, and helps repair damaged tissue and *loose connective adipose tissue function is to provide energy storage, insulation from extreme *adipose temperatures and cushioning around soft organs.
