Essentials of Human Anatomy & Physiology Seventh Edition Elaine N. Marieb Chapter 1 The Human Body: An Orientation Slides 1. 1 – 1. 8 Lecture Slides in Power. Point by Jerry L. Cook Copyright © 2003 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
Anatomy – Levels of Study • Gross Anatomy • Large structures • Easily observable
Anatomy – Levels of Study • Microscopic Anatomy • Very small structures • Can only be viewed with a microscope
Levels of Structural Organization
Organ System Overview • Integumentary • Forms the external body covering • Protects deeper tissue from injury and drying out • Synthesizes vitamin D • Location of cutaneous nerve receptors
Organ System Overview • Skeletal • Protects and supports body organs • Provides muscle attachment for movement • Site of blood cell formation • Stores minerals
Organ System Overview • Muscular • Allows locomotion • Maintains posture • Produces heat
Organ System Overview • Nervous • Fast-acting control system • Responds to internal and external change • Activates muscles and glands
Organ System Overview • Endocrine • Secretes regulatory hormones • Growth • Reproduction • Metabolism
Organ System Overview • Cardiovascular • Transports materials in body via blood pumped by heart • Oxygen • Carbon dioxide • Nutrients • Wastes
Organ System Overview • Lymphatic • Returns fluids to blood vessels • Disposes of debris • Involved in immunitydestroys bacteria and tumor cells
Organ System Overview • Respiratory • Keeps blood supplied with oxygen • Removes carbon dioxide
Organ System Overview • Digestive • Breaks down food • Allows for nutrient absorption into blood • Eliminates indigestible material
Organ System Overview • Urinary • Eliminates nitrogenous wastes • Maintains acid – base balance • Regulation of materials • Water • Electrolytes
Organ System Overview • Reproductive • Production of offspring
Necessary Life Functions • Maintain Boundaries- keeps the body’s internal environment distinct from the external environment- the skin and membranes • Movement • Locomotion • Movement of substances • Responsiveness • Ability to sense changes and react • Digestion • Break-down and delivery of nutrients
Necessary Life Functions • Metabolism – all chemical reactions within the body • Production of energy • Making body structures • Excretion • Elimination of waste from metabolic reactions
Necessary Life Functions • Reproduction • Production of future generation • Provides new cells for growth and repair • Growth • Increasing of cell size and number
Survival Needs • Nutrients • Chemicals for energy and cell building • Includes carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, and minerals • Oxygen • Required for chemical reactions
Survival Needs • Water • 60– 80% of body weight • Provides for metabolic reaction • Stable body temperature • Atmospheric pressure must be appropriate
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
Maintaining Homeostasis • The body communicates through neural and hormonal control systems • Receptor • Responds to changes in the environment (stimuli) • Sends information to control center
Maintaining Homeostasis • Control center • Determines set point • Analyzes information • Determines appropriate response • Effector • Provides a means for response to the stimulus
Feedback Mechanisms • Negative feedback • Includes most homeostatic control mechanisms • Shuts off the original stimulus, or reduces its intensity • Works like a household thermostat
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
The Language of Anatomy • Special terminology is used to prevent misunderstanding • Exact terms are used for: • Position • Direction • Regions • Structures
