- 3. Developmental Anatomy: conception -> physical maturity. Includes both gross & microscopicanatomy. - Embryology (embryo for the 1st two months. At month 3, becomes a fetus) - Comparative Anatomy: compares organization differences between types of animals. Reflect evolutionary history. Uses gross, microscopic & developmental anatomy. - Radiographic anatomy: what can be seen in X-rays, ultrasound or other procedures6. - Cross-Sectional anatomy: subspecialty of gross anatomy. Used in new technology eg) CT scansB. - Physiology- the study of function, which is intimately related to anatomy & can only be explained in terms of the underlying anatomy.
Intercellular Attachment
- Cell Adhesion Molecules (CAMs)Transmembrane proteins involved in intercellular attachment - Communicating junctions (gap junctions) - 2 cells held together with channels that have passageways to allow substances through. - Common among epithelial cells to help coordinate beating cilia - coordinate cardiac muscle heart beat & smooth muscle contraction C. Adhering junctions (Tight junctions):Lipid parts of two membranes held tightly together by Interlocking proteins of adjacent membranes 1. Function: seal off any space between cells to prevent movement of water or other molecules past. Makes a separation & a barrier between regions. 2. Where you find adhereing junctions:- Attach 2 cells at the lateral sides - Anchor epithelial cells to underlying basement membrane - Abundant in skin cells - you don't lose cells individually, rather, a sheet of cells
Dermis & Hypodermis/Subcutaneous layer
- Dermis 1. Papillary layer: Upper 20% areolar CT - Dermal papillae= increases surface area between epidermis & dermis. - Papillary plexus: branching network of capillaries which supply epidermal cells 2. Reticular layer: - Dense irregular CT - This layer contains bundles of collagen and elastin for resiliency and strength. - This layer diminishes as you age- causing wrinkles. C. Hypodermis/Subcutaneous layer: - Mainly consists of adipose. - For histology: very light staining layer - Thermoregulation, protection, padding - Distribution of subcutaneous fat changes over a life time and is different between sexes.
Body cavities
- Dorsal cavity: cranial, vertebral. posterior or back cavity Viscera for dorsal cavity: Cranial: brain, vertebral: spinal cord Vertebral: connected to cranial cavity. no structure runs through both cavities to separate them. - Thoracic cavity (upper): R/L pleura lungs Viscera: lungs Mediastinum (heart) or pericardial cavity viscera: heart - Abdominopelvic (peritoneal cavity): Abdominal cavity Pelvic: hip bone to waist. Viscera: bladder, reproductive organs, digestive tract
glands- specialized epithelial cells.
- Endocrine glands secrete their substances directly into their blood stream. 2. Exocrine glands secrete their substances into a duct, space or outside the body. How do glands secrete substances? a) Merocrine: secretion is produced & exported via exocytosis, no part of the cell dies or is lost. b) Holocrine: entire cells die and are discharged with its secretions. c) Apocrine: the apical (top) part of the cytoplasm is lost with the secretion 3. Goblet cell: specialized columnar cell. A unicellular gland which secretes mucin (mucus). 4. Shapes: alveolar, tubular (tubuloalveolar)Simple, compound ducts
Features
- Epidermis (stratified squamous, keratinized) Upper part of skin. - Dermis (areolar and dense irregular CT) Contains accessory structures such as nerves, blood supply, hair, glands - Hypodermis/ subcutaneous (adipose) *technically hypodermis is NOT part of skin.\ - Epidermial ridge (friction ridge)- hands, soles, = fingerprints & footprints - Dermal papillae: increase surface area of dermis contact with epidermis= diffusion of gasses & nutrients
Membranes
- Mucous membranes (mucosa): mucus coats these membranes. Found in areas of your body exposed to the outside not covered by skin. Protective role. 2. Serous membranes (serosa) Parietal layer- lines the wall of the cavity Visceral layer - directly on the organ Serous fluid- found between the parietal and visceral layers. a) lubrication/ educes friction between two membrane layers 3. Cutaneous membrane (skin or integument) 4. Synovial membrane- in synovial joints (eg knee, elbow, shoulder). Lubrication by producing synovial fluid.
Gross Anatomy (macroscopic)
- Surface Anatomy: superficial anatomical markings (chapter 12 of your book) - Regional Anatomy- superficial & internal structures in specific area of body eg) neck. Higher anatomical courses generally take the regional approach - Systemic Anatomy: consider organ systems. 11 organ systems.
Characteristics of a membrane:
- The cell's membranes are semipermeable or selectively permeable. This acts as a barrier to only allow through what the cell (or organelle) requires. Channel proteins a) Channel proteins: allows substances to pass into or out of cell. b) Gated channel proteins: a "gated" channel means that it is closed most of the time, but opens when stimulated.
Plasma membrane
- The membrane is mainly a phospholipid bilayer with cholesterol & proteins embedded. Allparts of the membrane are in motion & fluid. - Major 3 components of plasma membrane are: a) Phospholipids: hydrophobic tail and a hydrophilic head portion. This macromolecule creates a bilayer and forms the bulk of the membrane. Some of these lipids may have a small sugar group (oligosaccharide) attached to them. These are called glycolipids. b) Proteins. - If they go through the entire membrane they are called integral or transmembrane proteins. If an integral protein functioned to transport substances in/out of the cell, it can be called a channel protein. - If a protein is attached to just one side of a membrane, it's a peripheral protein. - Some proteins have a small sugar group (oligosaccharide) attached to them. These are called glycoproteins. . The sugar groups are used to communicate with other cells. Eg) it lets other cells know what kind of cell one is.Some proteins may have a lipid attached to them. These are called lipoproteins c) cholesterol functions to maintain fluidity of the membrane
Electron microscope
- Used to resolve items that are too small to view with light microscope eg) viruses or DNA. 2. Electrons beamed at a sample. Wavelengths of electrons are smaller than visible light for better resolution. A detector picks up diffraction pattern of electrons & a computer generates the image. 3. There are two types of electron microscopes: a). Scanning Electron Microscope: Scans the surface of structures with very great detail & resolution. 3-D image b) . Transmission Electron Microscope: Specimen are sliced thin- gives image of internal ultrastructure. 2-D image
Endocytosis (within)
- phagocytosis- engulfing large substances from outside "cell eating". Eg) white blood cell taking in a bacterium. ii. pinocytosis- cell taking in small "sips" of fluid outside the cell. "cell drinking" iii. receptor-mediated endocytosis (most specific kind of endocytosis). A protein receptor on the surface of the cell will fit only a specific kind of molecule. Upon binding, the cell's membrane will begin to sink inwards, forming a vesicle to take in the substance. f). exocytosis: cell releases substances to the outside by allowing its vesicles to fuse with plasma membrane. 5. Extensions of Plasma membrane: Microvilli - Fingerlike extensions of the membrane to increase surface area. Found in areas where there is a lot of secretion & absorption eg) small intestine Cytoplasm 1. Cytosol: - contains different ions than extracellular fluid. - contains high concentration of dissolved or suspended proteins that regulate metabolism of cell - contains small amounts of carbohydrates, lipids and amino acids

Germ= reproductiona) New cells created here- active mitosis 15-30 days to go from bottom to top. As cells move towards the top layer of skin, they become keratinized and die. b) Melanocytes: produce melanin (several forms yellow, red , brown, black) i) long processes that pass melanin to upper regions of skin. ii) Function of melanin: - block UVB radiation: UV can damage DNA AND can break down folic acid (B vitamin). Folic acid is important for normal nervous system development for embryo. - Disease of damaged DNA= cancer - If folic acid is not present in pregnant woman, the embryo may not develop at all or have neurological problems iii) Exposure to radiation stimulates melanocytes to produce more melanin= tanning. What happens on a molecular/cellular level when your tan fades? iii) Evolution of skin color People who evolved near the equator where sun more intense = darker skinned people to protect from UV radiation's damage to DNA and folic acid People who evolved near the poles where the sun less intense = lighter skinned people. Less melanin allows for more UV radiation to hit skin cells where Vitamin D is created. A lack of vitamin D can lead to weak bones (Ca+2 absorption less efficient). Disorder albinism. Little or no production of melanin; no pigment in hair, skin, eye,
