- Inspection
- Looking at the bodies appearance
-
Palpation
Feeling a structure with the hands, such as popping a swollen lymph node or taking a pulse
-
Auscultation
Listening to the natural sounds made by the body
-
Percussion
The examiner tap from the body feels for abnormal resistance and listens for signs of abnormalities
-
Dissection
Cutting And separation of tissues to revealthe relationship
-
Cadaver
Dissecting a dead human body
-
Comparative anatomy
Study of more than one species in order to examine structural similarities
-
Physiology
The study of function
-
Anatomy
the study of structure
-
Evolution
Change in the genetic composition of a population of organisms
-
Organism
A single complete individual, the baby
-
Organ system
a group of organs with a unique Collective function. example the circulation respiratory or digestive
-
Organ
A structure composed of two or more tissue types at work together to carry out a particular function examples skin pancreas
-
tissue
- Mass of similar cells and cell products that forms a discrete region of an organ and performs a specific function
- 4 classes - epithelial, connective, nervous, and muscular tissue
-
Cell
- Are the smallest units of an organism that carry out all of the basic functions of life.
- Most cells have one nucleus an organelle that contains its Dna
-
Organelle
Microscopic doctors in a cell that carry out its individual functions example mitochondria, centrioles, and lysosomes
-
Molecules
Composed of two atoms
-
-
-
Metabolism
- Is the sum of all this internal chemical change
- Consists of two classes of reaction anabolism and catabolism
-
Anabolism
Molecules are synthesized together
-
Catabolism
- Molecules are broken down into simpler ones
- examples protein digestion
-
Excretion
The separation of waste from tissues and their elimination from the body
-
Responsiveness
The ability of organisms to sensr and react to stimuli
-
Homeostasis
- Keeping internal conditions able
- Dynamic equilibrium
-
Development
- Any change in former function over the lifetime of the organism involves two major processes differentiation changing cells into cells are committed to a particular task
- Growth an increase in size
-
Reproduction
Passing the genes over
-
Evolution
Population changing as a whole their genetics change
-
Negative feedback
- A process which the body senses a change and activates mechanisms or reverses it.
- Example thermo stat
- Vasoconstriction when cold (shivering)
- Vasodilation when hot (sweating)
-
Homiel static control of blood pressure
- 3 components
- Receptor- this is a change in the body
- Integrating center- control center
- Effector- cell organ carries out the action
-
Positive feedback
Producing rapid change example stimulating contractions
