(2) major cavities separated by the diaphragm 1) thoracic cavity 2) abdominalpelvic cavity
Which word root, prefix, or suffix refers to "pain"? Which word root, prefix, or suffix refers to "pain"? lyso- -osis -algia patho-
-algia
Which of the following is a direct example of the study of physiology?
.Measuring heart rate and noting blood pressure.
Which scenario(s) exemplifies the relationship between form and function? Which scenario(s) exemplifies the relationship between form and function? Weakened heart valves are unable to prevent blood from flowing backward in the heart. Abnormally shaped hemoglobin leads to a reduced ability to carry oxygen. The "thinning" of bone, which occurs as one ages, may lead to an increased risk of bone fracture. All of the above.
All
(3) Sectional planes
Coronal (Frontal) - parallel to long axis; divides anterior/ventral & posterior/dorsal Sagittal (mid- & para-) - parallel to long axis; divides left & right Transverse (horizontal/cross section) - perpendicular to long axis; divides superior & inferior
Abdominalpelvic Cavity
Everything deep to abdominal and pelvic walls 2 sections Abdominal cavity Contains many digestive glands and organs Pelvic cavity Contains urinary bladder, reproductive organs, and last portion of the digestive tract Pelvic Cavity
In what country was anatomy established as a discipline studied by medical professionals?
Italy
Thoracic Cavity
Mediastinum Contains connective tissue AND the pericardial cavity containing the heart
Integration Scenario 1. The process of labor is an example of a positive feedback loop, because The process of labor is an example of a positive feedback loop, because The process is painful and potentially harmful The body amplifies the change in conditions The delivery of a baby after labor is very beneficial, or "positive," for the body The result creates more or a higher level of something (in this case more cervix stretching) 2. Based on the description of the organs' relative locations, which organ would the surgeons see first if looking into the incision? Based on the description of the organs' relative locations, which organ would the surgeons see first if looking into the incision? Cervix Bladder Uterus Rectum 3. What other organ are the surgeons likely to find in the hypogastric region? What other organ are the surgeons likely to find in the hypogastric region? Heart Stomach Liver Small intestine
The body amplifies the change in conditions bladder sm intestine
How are the skeletal system and muscular system related or similar in function? How are the skeletal system and muscular system related or similar in function? The skeletal system provides mineral storage while the muscular system functions in the absorption of minerals. They both function in support within the human body. They both function in blood formation. They both produce heat.
They both function in support within the human body.
In the example of blood clotting that occurs after a severe cut: In the example of blood clotting that occurs after a severe cut: negative feedback is the primary mechanism. the effector, activated by the control center, opposes the original stimulus. the clotting process decelerates as the damage to cells in the blood vessel wall releases chemicals. a positive feedback loop occurs.
a positive feedback loop occurs.
If a surgeon makes an incision just inferior to the diaphragm, what body cavity will be opened?
abdominopelvic cavity
Anatomically, the forearm is known as which of the following? Anatomically, the forearm is known as which of the following? brachium antecubitis antebrachium pollex
antebrachium
In the anatomical position, describe an anterior view and a posterior view
anterior is front; posterior is back of body
Regarding cells and the cell theory: Regarding cells and the cell theory: bone cells are the structural building blocks of all plants and animals. neurons are the most abundant cells in the body. only reproductive cells are produced by the divisions of preexisting cells. cells are the smallest structural units that perform all vital functions.
cells are the smallest structural units that perform all vital functions.
Contrast the descriptions used by clinicians and anatomists when referring to the positions of injuries or internal organs of the abdomen and pelvis.
clinicians use 4 quadrants for aches & pains anatomists use 9 abdominopelvic regions which are more precise for location & orientation of internal organs
What is one of the major functions of the lymphoid system? What is one of the major functions of the lymphoid system? directing immediate responses to stimuli internal transport of nutrients, waste, and gases defense against infection and disease mineral storage
defense against infection and disease

The extracellular matrix of connective tissues consists of which of the following? ground substance and nuclei nuclei and fibers fibers and ground substance glandular secretions and ground substance (there are no nuclei in matrix)
fibers and ground substance

What is the purpose of directional and sectional terms?
to use anatomical positions for specific points of reference & also important when looking at images and slides
