bones that surround them of the organs they contain

Maintain physical integrity and internal organization as well as keep internal environment within tolerable limits; allows us to segregate and optimize organs

boundaries

metabolism is - ___________: ________(breaking down), __________ building up energy productions using nutrients and oxygen

cellular chemical reactions; catabolism - breaking down anabolism - building up

Reproduction can occur in what 2 ways

cellular or organismal

Tissue type - bind and support, hold organs together, protective layer, interconnect the parts

connective

study of a cell and its internal structures (ex: hair cell)

cytology

Approach to anatomy - changes in structure from time of conception through maturity

developmental

4 approaches to gross anatomy

developmental regional surface systemic

to become specialized

differentiation

Basis of every disease is a result of ________

dysfunction at the cellular level

Tissue type - surfaces and cavities

epithelial

4 tissue types

epithelial connective nervous muscular

experimentation to medicine - dog bladder study

Anatomy is the study of ______ and ______ structures; as well ________ relationship among body parts; it is an applied science

external and internal structures; physical relationship

A cell's shape and size can reflect _____

function

category of anatomy - address structure and relationships of large body parts; visible

gross anatomy

study of tissues - examines groups of specialized cells and their products function for a common purpose (ex: spiral organ of corti)

histology

Growth can occur in what 2 ways

increase in size or number

What limits microscopic anatomy

instrumentation and magnification

ability to sense/respond to changes in an environment

irritability (responsiveness)

What is the major problem with early information in the field

lack of anatomical data

parietal

branches of anatomy - anatomic changes due to disease

patholgoic

3 specialized branches of anatomy that focus on diagnosis of medical conditions/research

pathologic radiographic surgical
