Human Anatomy

looking at different regions of the body

looking at different systems of the body

looking at the surface of the body

not visible to the naked eye

combine to form molecules (smallest)

molecule formed from smaller molecules

comprised of macromolecules

comprised of organelles

comprised of cells

comprised of several tissue types connective tissue and parenchyma tissue

does the work for the organ

holds things together

comprised of different organs

comprised of different organ systems

skin,hair,nails,skin glands

• protection
• prevents spread of infection
• maintains body temperature
• prevents water loss
• sense organs

bones, joints and periarticular

• attachment for muscles so we can have movement
• protection
• structure
• provides calcium and phosphorus that the body needs
• bone marrow makes blood cells

muscles, tendons

Involuntary Contraction - smooth muscles, movind food, blood, oxygen

Voluntary Contraction - follows orders from the brain, help keep us warm by tightening, give you structure

Smooth muscles that move food, blood, oxygen...

• follows orders from the brain
• helps to keep us warm by tightening
• gives structure

brain, spinal cord, nerves, sensory organs

• control body
• send messages
• activates effectors

endocrine glands, hormones

messenger system between different body parts, how one system relates to another

heart (cardio) and vascular (blood vessels and blood)

• purifies the system
• carries the oxygen and nutrients to the body

• lungs
• airways

• brings oxygen in
• carbon dioxide out

lymph fluid

protects against disease and pathogens

Path food takes from the mouth to the anus

• breaks down food to give the blood nutrients
• disposes of waste

kidneys and the urinary bladder

• rids the body of liquid waste
• helps regulate the bodys fluid level
• helps regulate the chemical content of the blood

• production of sperm and eggs
• transfer of sperm
• development of fetus

limited to a specific part

affects several organs system

sudden onset, generally short lived

slower longer lasting
