7:1 Basic Structure of the Human Body
The normal function of the human body is compared to an organized machine
The machine malfunctions, disease occurs
Anatomy: study of form and structure
Physiology: study of processes
Pathophysiology: study of how disease occurs and body’s responseSlide3
ProtoplasmBasic substance of lifeMade of ordinary elements
(carbon
, oxygen,
hydrogen, sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorus)
Scientists can combine these elements,
but not create
lifeSlide4
CellsMade of protoplasm which forms the basic structure and function of all living things
The CELL: Microscopic structures
Carry on all functions of
life (food and oxygen, produce heat and energy, eliminate waste)
Body contains trillions of cells
Vary in shape and size
Perform different functionsSlide5
Basic Parts of CellsCell
membrane-outer protective cover and
semipermiable
Cytoplasm-semifluid in the cell but outside the nucleus
Organelles-cell structures that help it function and located in cytoplasm
Nucleus-brain of the cell
Nucleolus-located inside the nucleus and important for cell reproduction
Chromatin-located in the nucleus and made of DNA and protein; forms chromosomes during cell reproductionSlide6
Basic Parts of Cells
Mitochondria-powerhouses of the cell; breakdown carbs, protein, fat to make ATP (energy source of cell)
Golgi
apparatus-produces, stores, and packages secretions for discharge from cell
Endoplasmic
reticulum-allows for transport of materials in and out of cell
Vacuoles-stores food or waste
Lysosomes-contain digestive enzymes for old cells, bacteria, and foreign materialsSlide7
TissuesCells of same type joined together60%–99%
water and referred to as tissue fluid
Not enough tissue fluid=dehydration
Too much tissue fluid=edema
4 main groups
of tissues
Epithelial
Connective
Nerve
Muscle Slide8
Types of TissuesEpithelial tissue covers the surface of the body and main tissue in skin; also forms lining of cavities and tracts; body glands
Connective tissue
is the supporting fabric of organs and other body parts. There are 2 types: soft and hard.
Soft connective tissue-
adipose
for fat storage and
fibrous
for holding body structures together
Hard connective tissue-
cartilage as shock absorber and bone
for rigid structure of bodySlide9
Types of tissuesNerve tissue-neurons to control and coordinate body activities by transmitting messages though body
Muscle tissue
-produces power and movement by contraction of muscle fibers. There are 3 main kinds of muscle tissue.
Skeletal which attaches to bones and provides movement
Cardiac which causes heart to beat
Visceral/smooth which is walls of respiratory, digestive, urinary tract, and blood vesselsSlide10
Organs and Systems
Organs: two or more tissues joined together for a specific purpose
Systems: organs and other body parts joined together for a particular
function. There are 11basic systems.
Integumentary
Skeletal
Muscular
Circulatory
Lymphatic
Nervous
Respiratory
Digestive
Urinary
Endocrine
reproductiveSlide11
SummaryProtoplasm is basic substance of life
Protoplasm forms structural units called cells
Cells combine to form tissue
Tissues combine to form organs
Organs and other parts combine to
form systems
Systems work together to create miracle of human bodySlide12
7:2 Body Planes/Directions/Cavities
These terms are used when the human body is in anatomical position-standing with feet together, arms down, and palms up.
Body
planes: imaginary lines drawn
through body at various levels to separate body into
sections; there are 3 main planes
Directional terms are created by
planes; there are 12 directional termsSlide13
3 main planes with 12 directional terms
Transverse plane
is horizontal plan that divides the body into top and bottom halves. Top half is superior and bottom half is inferior. There are two other terms associated with this plane.
cranial which means towards the head
caudal which means towards the tail
Midsagittal
aka median plane divides the body into left and right halves. Parts close to midline are medial and parts further away from midline are lateral.Slide14
Planes and directions
Frontal
aka coronal plane divides the body into front and back halves. The front of the body is ventral or anterior and the back of the body is dorsal or posterior.
The location of the extremities in relation to the body truck can be called proximal and distal.
Proximal is close to the body
Distal is far from the bodySlide15
CavitiesSpaces within the body that contain
vital
organs
There are 2 main cavities
Dorsal or posterior cavity
Ventral or anterior cavities
And there are 3
small
cavities
Orbital cavity
Nasal cavity
Buccal cavitySlide16
The main cavitiesThe dorsal cavity is one long, continuous cavity on the back of the body. It can be broken down into 2 smaller cavities.
Cranial cavity which holds the brain
Spinal cavity which holds the spinal cord
The ventral cavity is a long cavity on the front of the body. It is divided into 2 distinct cavities by the diaphragm muscle.
Thoracic cavity is the upper cavity located in the chest and contains the esophagus, trachea, bronchi, lungs, heart, and large blood vessels.Slide17
The main cavities
Abdominal cavity aka abdominopelvic cavity is the lower cavity below the diaphragm muscle. It in itself is divided even into 2 smaller cavities-the upper and lower cavity.
The upper abdominal cavity contains the stomach and large part of digestion system.
The lower abdominal cavity aka the pelvic cavity has the urinary bladder, reproductive organs, and last part of large intestine.
The kidneys and the adrenal glands are located outside the abdominal cavity and considered outside the peritoneum. This area is called the retroperitoneal space. Slide18
Abdominal RegionsAbdominal cavity is separated into
quadrants or regions
because it is so large
Quadrants divides the abdominal cavity into 4 sections:
RUQ-right upper quadrant
LUQ-left upper quadrant
RLQ-right lower quadrant
LLQ
–left lower quadrantSlide19
Abdominal regionsA more precise way of describing the abdominal cavity is with 9 regions, looking like a tic-tac-toe board.
The center regions are the epigastric (above the stomach), the umbilical, and the hypogastric (below the stomach).
On either side (left or right) of the center regions are the hypochondriac (below ribs), lumbar (near lumbar area of spine), and iliac or inguinal (near the groin).Slide20
Abdominal Regions
Regions
Epigastric-center above stomach
Umbilical-center at navel
Hypogastric-center below stomach
Hypochondriac-sides below ribs
Lumbar-sides and same as spinal column
Iliac or
inguinal-bottom near the groin
