PART A

The Human Body: An

Orientation

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Human Body – An Orientation

▪ Anatomy – study of the structure

and shape of the body and its

parts

▪ Physiology – study of how the

body and its parts work or

function

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Anatomy – Levels of Study

▪ Gross Anatomy

▪ Large structures

▪ Easily observable

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Figure 14.4

Anatomy – Levels of Study

▪ Microscopic Anatomy

▪ Very small

structures

▪ Can only be

viewed with

a microscope

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Language of Anatomy

▪ Special terminology is used to prevent

misunderstanding

▪ Exact terms are used for:

▪ Position

▪ Direction

▪ Regions

▪ Structures

Superficial: Closer to the

surface of the body

Deep: Further away (more

internal) from the surface of the

body

4-legged Specimen

Caudal: Towards the tail end of a 4-legged

specimen

4-legged specimen

Naming Help

Dorsal Ventral

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Midsagittal – divides the body into right and left, midline cut on the dorsal or ventral surface

Frontal – divides the body into front and back, Ventral/dorsal, midline cut on the lateral surface

Transverse – divides the body into superior anterior, cephalad/caudal

You are told to cut an animal along two planes so that the paired lungs are observable (cut) in both sections.

What two dissection planes would meet this requirement?

Survival Needs…

What do we need to survive?

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Survival Needs

1) Nutrients

▪ Chemicals for energy and cell building

▪ Includes carbohydrates, proteins, lipids,

vitamins, and minerals

2) Oxygen

▪ Required for chemical reactions

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Survival Needs

3) Water

▪ 60–80% of body weight

▪ Provides for metabolic reaction

4) Stable body temperature

5) Atmospheric pressure must be appropriate

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Necessary Life Functions

▪ Maintain Boundaries (Which body system?)

▪ Movement (Which body system?)

▪ Locomotion

▪ Movement of substances

▪ Responsiveness (Which body system?)

▪ Ability to sense changes and react

▪ Digestion

▪ Break-down and delivery of nutrients

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Necessary Life Functions

▪ Metabolism – chemical reactions within the

body

▪ Production of energy

▪ Making body structures

▪ Excretion (Which body systems)

▪ Elimination of waste from metabolic

reactions

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Necessary Life Functions

▪ Reproduction

▪ Production of future generation

▪ Growth

▪ Increasing of cell size and number

Homeostasis

▪ Maintenance of a stable internal environment = a

dynamic state of equilibrium

▪ Homeostasis must be maintained for normal body

functioning and to sustain life

▪ Homeostatic imbalance – a disturbance in

homeostasis resulting in disease

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Overview of Homeostasis

Figure 1.4

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Maintaining Homeostasis

▪ The body communicates through neural and hormonal

control systems

▪ Receptor

▪ Responds to changes in the environment (stimuli)

▪ Sends information to control center

▪ Control center

▪ Determines set point

▪ Analyzes information

▪ Determines appropriate response

▪ Effector

▪ Provides a means for response to the stimulus

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Feedback Mechanisms

▪ Negative feedback

▪ Includes most homeostatic control mechanisms

▪ Shuts off the original stimulus, or reduces its

intensity

▪ Works like a household thermostat

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Feedback Mechanisms

▪ Positive feedback

▪ Increases the original stimulus to push the

variable farther

▪ In the body this only occurs in blood clotting and

birth of a baby
