  22. Seminar: Yellow Icon • On the main Kaplan page, click on "My seminars" and this will take you to the seminar schedules. Once you reach this page, then on the left side of the grid, you will notice "Calendar view" and "Table view"...click on "Table View and this will show all seminars that are scheduled. You will always click on the seminar tab with my name in it. "TAbram"

  23. Netiquette • Be considerate! • Be respectful! • Threaded discussion are used for constructive exchanges. • Please do not send “nasty grams”

  24. Emails • Subject of Message: Your name_Course number and Section • Example: Tracy Abram_HS120-Section 4 • When sending emails, please be mindful of netiquette. • 24 hour response time on weekdays (M-T) • 48 hour response on weekends (Friday-Sunday)

  25. Discussion Board Requirements • One post to Unit Discussion Question (at least 150 words) by Saturday • Two responses to classmates or me (50 words) by Tuesday, end of unit.

  26. Medical Assisting Program • Competencies must be passed with a score of at least 73%.

  27. Structural levels of organization • Organization is an outstanding characteristic of body structure • The body is a unit made up of the following smaller units: • Cells-the smallest structural units; organizations of various chemicals • Tissues-organizations of similar cells • Organs-organizations of different kinds of tissue • Systems- organizations of many different kinds of organs

  28. Anatomical Position • Standing erect with the feet slightly apart and arms at the sides with the palms turned forward • See figure 1-2 on page 4 of the text.

  29. Anatomical Directions • Superior-toward the head, upper, and above • Inferior-toward the feet, lower, below • See page 6 of the text.

  30. Anatomical Directions • Anterior-front, in front of (same as ventral in humans) • Posterior-back, in back of (same as dorsal in humans)

  31. Anatomical directions • Medial-toward the midline of a structure • Lateral-away from the midline or toward the side of a structure • See Figure 1-3 on page 9

  32. Anatomical directions • Proximal-toward or nearest the trunk, or nearest the point of origin of a structure • Distal- away from or farthest from the trunk, or farthest from a structures’ point of origin

  33. Planes or Body Sections • Sagittal plane-lengthwise plane that divides a structure into right of left sections • Midsagittal-sagittal plane that divides the body into two equal halves • Frontal (coronal) plane lengthwise plane that divides a structure into anterior and posterior sections • Transverse plane-horizontal plane that divides a structure into upper and lower sections

  34. Body cavities • Ventral cavity • Thoracic cavity • Mediastinum--midportion of thoracic cavity; heart and trachea located in mediastinum • Pleural cavities—right lung located in right pleural cavity, left lung in left pleural cavity

  35. Body Cavities • Ventral cavity • Abdominopelvic cavity contains stomach, intestines, liver, gall bladder, pancreas, and spleen • Pelvic cavity contains reproductive organs, urinary bladder, and lowest part of intestine • Dorsal cavity • Cranial cavity contains brain • Spinal cavity contains spinal cord • Table 1-1 Body Cavities on page 10.

  36. Body Regions • Axial region—head, neck, and torso or trunk • Appendicular region—upper and lower extremities such as legs and arms • See Figure 1-6 page 13 of the text

  37. Homeostasis • The body’s ability to maintain an internal environment for proper function. • All organs function to maintain homeostasis • If homeostasis is lost at any level, then the whole body is affected. • Body functions are related to age; peak efficiency is during young adulthood, diminishing efficiency occurs after young adulthood • Ultimate loss of homeostasis=DEATH

  38. Question????What would happen to the body or a system NOT in homeostasis?

  39. Organ Systems of the Body • Integumentary System (See Figure 4-2) • Structure—organs include: • Skin, Hair, Nails, Sense receptors, Sweat glands, Oil glands • What are the functions????

  40. Organ Systems • Skeletal System (Figure 4-3) • Structures include: • Bones and Joints • What are the functions????

  41. Organ systems • Muscular System (Figure 4-4) • Structures include: • 3 types of muscle • Voluntary or striated • Involuntary or smooth • Cardiac • What are the functions?????

  42. Organ Systems • Nervous system (Figure 4-5) • Structures include: • Brain, Spinal cord, Nerves, Sense organs • What are the functions?????

  43. Organ systems-Endocrine system • Structures include: • Pituitary gland • Pineal gland • Hypothalamus • Thyroid gland • Parathyroid gland • Thymus gland • Adrenal gland • Pancreas • Ovaries (female) • Testes (male) • See Figure 4-6 • What are the functions?

  44. Homeostasis • Survival of the individual is the body’s most important business • Survival depends on the maintenance or restoration of homeostasis (relative constancy of the internal environment; Figure 1-9); the body uses negative feedback loops and, less often, positive feedback loops to maintain or restore homeostasis

  45. Questions ???? • We have had a marvelous first seminar! • Let’s keep the momentum going! • “See” you in the discussion boards!

  46. Unit 1: What’s Due? • Read assigned sections Chapters 1 and 4 • Participate in Discussion Boards • Participate in Seminar option 1 or complete seminar option 2 • Complete Post-quiz exam
