Delve into the study of human anatomy and physiology, exploring levels of organization, history, and key terms. Understand how structure complements function, the significance of homeostasis, and the essential functions for life. Learn about ancient Egyptian mummification, the contributions of Hippocrates and Galen, anatomical theaters, and the impact of electricity on anatomy studies. Discover the levels of structural organization, the overview of organ systems, functions necessary for life, and survival needs. Dive into the concept of homeostasis and the language of anatomy with directional and regional terms.

Transcription de la présentation
  1. Ch. 1 Warm-Up • How is anatomy different from physiology? • What are the levels of organization of the human body from smallest  largest? • List the 11 organ systems of the body.

  2. Intro to Anatomy & Physiology UNIT 1

  3. Objectives: • Explore the history of Anatomy & Physiology • Explain how structure complements function • Name the levels of structural organization • List the functions necessary for life • List the survival needs of the body • Define homeostasis and explain its significance • Use correct anatomical terms to describe the body

  4. Anatomy: studies the structure of body parts and their relationship to one another • Physiology: the function of the body parts • Complementarity of Structure & Function • What a structure can do depends on its specific form • “Structure determines function”

  5. Subdivisions of Anatomy • Gross or Macroscopic • parts visible to naked eye • Microscopic • Cytology: study of cells • Histology: study of tissues • Developmental • Embryology: study changes that occur before birth

  6. History of Anatomy & Physiology • Egyptians perfected mummification • Major organs cleaned and placed in clay jars • Body cavity filled with sawdust-like materials • Natron used to dry the body • Wrapped in linen • Then covered in a shroud

  7. Ancient Egyptians • In the process of mummifying people ancient Egyptians were able to identify and document: • Heart & vessels • Liver • Spleen • Kidneys • Uterus • Bladder • Hypothalamus **Even though they didn’t really know what they did or how they worked…**

  8. Ancient Greece • Hippocrates • Hippocratic Corpus • Hippocratic Oath • Aristotle • Father of comparative anatomy (based off of dissections) • 1st recorded school of anatomy • Alexandria • The 1st to allow cutting and examination of dead bodies (criminals only)

  9. Ancient Greece gets weird… • Galen • Performed vivisections on monkeys and pigs to gain physiological understanding • YES, that means cutting open something while it is still alive… • Studied wounds of Gladiators • Called wounds “windows into the body” • Only 5 gladiators died under his care

  10. 16th Century • Anatomical Theatres • People traveled extreme distances to watch professors teach during dissections • Stadium style seating • Increased the number of people who could benefit from each cadaver • Increased grave robbing • The discovery of electricity opened another can of worms… • Galvanism: contraction of muscle due to electric current • Ideas for Shelley’s “Frankenstein”

  11. 17th & 18th Centuries • Many artists trained in anatomy in order to produce life-like artwork • Leonardo da Vinci • Michelangelo • Rembrandt • This included attending lectures, public dissections, and private studies • Only certified anatomists were allowed to perform dissections, but anyone could watch for a certain price

  12. Levels of Structural Organization atomic  molecular  cellular  tissue  organ  organ system  organism

  13. Overview of Organ Systems

  14. Overview of Organ Systems

  15. Overview of Organ Systems

  16. Overview of Organ Systems

  17. Overview of Organ Systems

  18. Overview of Organ Systems

  19. Functions Necessary for Humans to Live • Maintaining boundaries (inside vs. outside) • Movement (internal & external) • Responsiveness: sense changes and respond • Digestion: break down foods for absorption • Metabolism: all chemical reactions in body • Excretion: remove wastes • Reproduction: cell division, whole organism • Growth: increase in size/part

  20. Survival Needs • Nutrients (Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins, Salt, etc.) • Oxygen • Water • Normal Body Temperature (98.6F or 37C) • Atmospheric Pressure & Gravity • “Packing for Mars” by Mary Roach

  21. Homeostasis • Maintain relatively stable internal conditions • Receptor (input)  control center  effector (response) • Negative (-) feedback: reduces effect of stimulus • Eg. body temp, breathing rate, blood sugar levels • Positive (+) feedback: increases response • Eg. labor contractions, blood clotting • Diseases = homeostatic imbalance

  22. The Language of Anatomy

  23. Anatomical Position • Body erect, feet slightly apart, palm face forward, thumbs pointing out

  24. Terms you need to know: • Superior (cranial) • Inferior (caudal) • Ventral (anterior) • Dorsal (posterior) • Medial • Lateral • Proximal • Distal • Superficial (external) • Deep (internal) • Axial • Appendicular • Saggital plane • Frontal (coronal) plane • Transverse (horizontal) plane

  25. Directional Terms

  26. Directional Terms

  27. Directional Terms

  28. Regional Terms • Axial: main part of body = head, neck, & trunk • Appendicular: limbs attached to axis

  29. The body can be divided into flat surfaces called planes • Sagittal plane • divides into right/left • Frontal/coronal plane • divides into anterior/posterior • Transverse/horizontal plane • divides into superior/inferior

  30. Which plane is shown below? kidneys brain thigh

  31. Body Cavities • Dorsal body cavity: • Cranial cavity • Vertebral/spinal cavity • Ventral body cavity • Thoracic • lungs, heart, trachea, esophagus • Abdominopelvic • digestive, reproductive, urinary

  32. Body Cavities • Oral cavity (within mouth) • Nasal cavity (inside nose) • Orbital cavities (hold the eyes) • Middle ear cavities (in skull, transmit & amplify sound)

  33. Abdominopelvic Quadrants

  34. Abdominopelvic Regions
