  1. Medical English Week 3

  2. In Week 3, we will: • Look at terms describing the structural organisation of the body • Identify body cavities and the organs contained within them • Study positional and directional terms • Work on the pronunciation of these terms • Learn more combining forms and their meanings • Improve and add to our understanding of (the formation of) medical terms

  3. Structural organization of the body

  4. Cells • Fundamental unit of all living things • Metabolise food to release energy and build proteins • Are different, specialised to perform individual functions • Combining form = cyt/o Practice: Turn to page 34. Label the parts of a cell.Practice: Turn to page 57. Do exercises A and B.
