I. Course Overview A. Semester 2 Policy
handout. B. System approach -
Form (anatomy) and function (physiology).
1. Greek and Latin inclusion.
a) Anatomy - generally referring to organisms
i. Macroanatomy - macro = large (see with naked eye)
ii. Histology = study of tissues
iii. cytology = study of cells
3) Physiology - The study of function
4) Others: Biochemistry, psychology, pathology (study of disease) Genetics (beginnings i.e., Genesis).
3. The body systems: skeletal, muscular, nervous, digestive, respiratory, circulatory (including immune), urinary, reproductive (or urogenital), endocrine, integumentary.
a. We will look
at most if not all of these "systems" but may combine a few and call it one "system".
2. Tissues.- Four typesa. Epithelial -
covers and protects surfaces
b. Connective - joins various parts and provides support.
c. Muscular - allows movement
d. Nervous - responds to stimuli and cordinates bodily activity.
3. Organs and organ systems
d. proximal/distalreference to the point of attachment
e. parietal/visceral parietal = pertains to the
outer layer or wallvisceral
= covering of an organ
2. Planes of Sections
a. sagittal = any verticle plane making left and right portions
2) abdominal = the viscera (guts) = digestive organs, kidneys and spleen
a) pelvic cavity = bladder, reproductive organs
A. Word roots: In the word "speaker", speak- is the word root. In the word "cytology", cyt- is the word root.
B. Combining vowel: We combine speed and meter but we call it speedometer. The vowel, "o" combines the two roots. This was done to help pronunciation.
D. The suffix: a syllable or syllables added at the end of the word root or combining form to change the meaning of the root, give it grammatical function, or to form a new word.
E. The prefix: a syllable or syllables placed before the word to alter its meaning or create a new word. side, out-side, in-side

A. Functions (in addition to basic process of life)
1. Special functions discussed later ( nerve cells, muscle, etc.)
2. Transportation
through cell membranes.a. Physical
Processes - Movement from high concentration to low
v molecules between
blood and extracellular areas in tissues
v molcules between the cells and extracellular areas
b) rate of diffusionv drops
dramatically as the distance increases (10 m in 15 ms, size of basketball in 256 days for oxygen)
2) Osmosis =
diffusion of a solvent through a selectively permeable membrane. One that does not let all solute in the solvent through it.
a) The driving
force is the difference in solvent concentrations.This difference creates osmotic pressure.
isotonic solution = same osmotic pressure as cell
hypotonic solution = less than the cell
hypertonic solution = more than the cell
3) Filtration = movement through a membrane due to mechanical pressure gradient. (occurrs in the kidney)
a) requires the use of energy
b) membrane is more one-directional otherwise diffusion would occur. c) sodium and potassium ions
3. Metabolic functions = All the chemical reactions inside the body.
a. Background - basics of chemistry
1) atom = the smallest
unit of an element able to exist alone
2) phases of matter = solid, liquid, and gas
3) chemical compounds = made up of molecules, have various proportions of atoms.
4) organic compounds = carbon-containing compounds
c) proteins = long chains of amino acids
d) nucleic acids = DNA (double strand) and RNA (singlestrand)
4) mixture = The physical combination of substances where the substances do not lose their identity.
5) catalyst = speeds the rate of a reaction without being part of it
6) enzyme = an organic catalyst
7) solute, solvent, solution
b. Energy Exchange
(absorption or release) 1) synthesis = two
or more substances combine to make a new substance
b) Biological decomposition = catabolism
3) homeostasis = the tendency of the body to maintain constant conditions . a) feedback systems
step 2: catabolism, breakdown of the molecules to release energy glucose + oxygen with enzymes break down to CO2, water, and energy
cellular respiration in the
mitochondria
step 3: ATP (adenosine triphosphate) transfers energy as ATP then released when broken down energy is in bonds
1)) Cell structures:
asters, spindle= fibers on which chromosomes move, centrioles, chromatin = genetic material which stains easily
1. Epithelial = covering tissue which usuallly secretes, creates movement, and can repair itself very quickly.
2. Connective = cells, fibers and proteinsa. Loose b. Adipose (fat) c. Cartilaged. Fibrouse. Liquid (blood, lymph) f.
Bone
