- 2 main cavities making up the body and where are they located
- dorsal and ventral cavity. dorsal is located in posterior section and ventral is located in the anterior
- what organs would you find in each subdivision of the thoracic cavity
-
mediastina- heart trachea esophagus
pericardial- heart
pleural- each side of mediastina housing the lungs - what seperates the thoracic from the abdominopelvic cavity?
- diaphram
- name organs that are found in each subdivision of the ab-pelvic cavity
- internal orgains- stomach small intestine liver gull bladder pancreas kidneys
- 2 smaller cavities within the dorsal cavity and what do they house
-
cranial cavity- brain
spinal cavity- spine - the ---- cavity contains the majority of our internal organs
- ab-pelvic
- what are the three planes and how do they divide our body?
-
sagital- vertical plane diving to left and right sections
transverse- horizontal plane dividing in superior and inferior sections
frontal- vertical plane dividing body into anterior and posterior sections - a --- plane would seperate our kidneys
- sagital
- a ---- plane would seperate our thoracic and pelvic cavities
- transverse
- a --- plane would seperate our abdominal and spinal cavities
- frontal
- whats the order or our structural hierarchy and their definitions?
-
cell- small
tissue- similar cells for specific funtion (four types)
organ- lungs heart kidneys liver etc. group of tissues working together for common purpose
organ system- (11 systems of body) respitory, circulatory, endocrine etc. - what is the role of the epithelial tissue?
-
covers or lines surfaces
ex- lining of stomach and epidermis of skin - what is the role of the connective tissue
-
supports transports or stores materials
ex- bone, blood - what is the role of the muscle tissue
-
contracts and brings about movement
ex- the heart and skeletal muscles - what is the role of the nerve tissue
-
transmits impulses that regulate body functions
ex- spinal cord, brain - anatomy of a structure
- discovers structures of body parts and relatioships to one another
- physiology of a structure
- function of body, how they work and carry out activities
- dorsal cavity
- brain and spinal cord. cranial and spinal cavities included.
- ventral cavity
- everything from shoulders to hips thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic cavities included.
- thoracic cavity
- heart and lung house
- mediastina cavity
- heart trachea and esophagus. inbetween the pleural cavities
- pericardial cavity
- contains heart (right below mediastinum)
- pleural cavity
- on each side of the mediastina housing the lungs
- the diaphram seperates which two cavities
- thoracic and abdominal cavities
- a synonym for ventral is..
- anterior
- an antonym for medial is..
- lateral
- tissue found on the surface of an organ must be an
- epithelial tissue
- a tissue that causes contractions of the stomach to mix food wiht gastic juice must be a type of ..
- muscle tissue
- the tissue that enables you to think and answer all of these questions is
- nerve tissue
- a tissue that supports body parts of transports materials within the body is a type of
- connective tissue
- thyroid
-
endocrine system
gland that manufactures thyroid hormone and regulates rate of functions. located in neck - hypothalamus
-
endocrine systerm
region of brain contolling bodily functions. located in middle of brain. - t cells
-
lymphatic system
type of white blood cell that fights disease. lymps together - spleen
-
lymphatic system
in blood streem. destructs old red blood cells located in abdomen. fights infection - kidneys
-
urinary system
pair of organs that get rid of bodies waste - bladder
-
urinary system
urinary bladder- collects urine excreted by kidneys
gull bladder- contains bile for digestion - system with most internal organs
- digestive
- hormones
- chemical messengers
- prostrate gland
-
reproductive
stores fluid for 1/3 of semen - scrotum
-
reproductive
bag of skin and muscle containing testicals. regulates temperature of testes. - fallopian tube
-
reproductive
tubes linkiing ovaries to uterus - uterus
-
reproductive
connected to vagina and tubes. childbirth - smooth muscle
-
muscular
contracts and regulates blood pressure. guide to transport like blood, urine and bile - skeletal muscle
-
muscular
creates movement by applying force to joints by contraction. attached to bones usually - bone marrow
-
skeletal
tissue in large bones. new blood cells are produced here - connnective tissue
-
skeletal
strong fiber in tendons and legaments - small intestine
-
digestive
nutrients from food absorbed. chemical digestion takes place - esophagus
-
digestive
food passes from mouth to stomach - epidermis
-
integumentary
outer layer of skin. protects - sebaceous glands
-
integumentary
glands in skin that protect hair and skin. it produces oil - larynx
-
respitory
voice box - alveoli
-
reseritory
air sacs. lungs - sensory neurons
-
nervous
nerve cells. controls behaivior and pain - motor neurons
-
nervous
controlls uscle contraction in the spine - arteries
-
cardio
blood vessles that carry blood away from the heart. deliever oxigenated blood - veins
-
cardio
carries blood towards heart. deoxigenated - testes/overies play role in what 2 systems
- reproductive and endocrine
- pancreas plays role in what two systems
- endocrine and digestive
- urethra plays role in what two systerms
- urinary and reporductive
- kidneys play a role in what two systems
- cardiovascular and urinary.
