What is anatomy

Front

the study of the structure of the human body

Back

The urinary system

Front

Organs: kidney, urinary bladder, and urethra Function: filters the blood to release urine(water and waste)

Back

The male reproductive system

Front

Organ: testes and penis Function: produce sperm and deliver to the female reproductive tract

Back

nervous tissue

Front

Ex. Brain Function- send and receive signals

Back

The cardiovascular system

Front

Organ: heart, veins, and arteries Function: circulates blood to transport materials

Back

The female reproductive system

Front

Organ: uterus, ovaries, and vagina Function: produce ovules, supports the development of the embryo and fetus

Back

Four primary tissue types

Front

epithelial, connective, muscle, nervous

Back

muscle tissue

Front

Ex. Skeletal muscle, heart, hollow organ-smooth muscle Function, movement

Back

Gross Anatomy

Front

Study of structures that can be seen with the naked eye

Back

The endocrine system

Front

Organ: pituitary gland, thyroid gland, pancreas Function: to trigger and signal responses in specific tissue

Back

The lymphatic system

Front

Organ: spleen, lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels Function: filters the blood(spleen), collect and filter fluids in lymph, attacks pathogens

Back

From smallest to largest

Front

Atoms, molecules, cells, tissues, organ, organ system, organism

Back

Histology

Front

study of tissues

Back

The digestive system

Front

Organ: oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine Function: breakdown food and absorb nutrients

Back

epithelial tissue

Front

Ex: skin Function: protection, temp, water loss, UV light, pathogens, transport function Covers exposed body parts, lines hollow organs

Back

The nervous system

Front

Organ: brain, spinal cord, nerves, sense organs Function: collects information about conditions-body, tissue, and senses the environment to trigger response

Back

connective tissue

Front

Ex. Bone Function: holds tissue together, supports body, posture, protects organs, transport

Back

The integumentary system

Front

Part:hair, skin, nails, gland Function: protection, temperature homeostasis

Back

The skeletal system

Front

Organ: bones Function: structure supports and protects, with muscle movement

Back

The muscular system

Front

Organs: muscles Function: movement, produce heat, posture, supports organs, transport(blood and food)

Back

How is anatomy related to physiology

Front

The study of how the structures function(anatomy+chemistry)

Back

Cytology

Front

study of structure and function of cells

Back

The respiratory system

Front

Organs: lungs, trachea, nose Function: gas exchange

Back
