Anatomy & Physiology

Overview of Anatomy

Anatomy: the
study of the
structure and
shape of the body
and body parts and
their relationship to
one another
Overview of Physiology

Physiology:
The study of
how the body
and its parts
work or function
Relationship


What is relationship between the terms
anatomy and physiology?
The parts of your body form a well-organized
unit and each of those parts has a job to do
to make the body operate as a whole.
Levels of Structural Organization

Simplest level –
chemical level
–
–
Atoms, tiny building blocks
of matter, combine to form
molecules such as water,
sugar, and proteins
Molecules then associate
to form cells
Organ System Overview

Nervous System
Endocrine System
Cardiovascular System

Lymphatic System
Respiratory System
Digestive System
Urinary System
Reproductive System
Integumentary System

The external covering
of the body or the skin
Skeletal System

Consists of bones,
cartilages, ligaments,
and joints
Muscular System

The skeletal muscles,
those responsible for
the movement of the
body, form the
muscular system
Nervous System


The body’s fast-acting
control system
Consists of the brain,
spinal cord, nerves, and
sensory receptors.
Endocrine System


Controls the body activities,
but much more slowly than
the nervous system
Endocrine glands produce
hormones and release them
into the blood to travel to
distant target organs.
Cardiovascular System

Consists of the heart
and blood vessels
Lymphatic System


Consists of the
lymphatic vessels,
lymph nodes, and other
organs like the spleen
and tonsils
Helps defend the body
against diseasecausing agents
Respiratory System

Keeps the body
constantly supplied with
oxygen and to remove
carbon dioxide
Digestive System

Responsible for
breaking down food
and delivering the
products to the blood
for dispersal to the
body cells.
Urinary System

Removes the
nitrogenous-containing
wastes from the blood
and flushes them from
the body in urine.

Anatomical Position
Movement
Body Cavities
Directional Terms
Regional Terms
Body Planes
Anatomical Position

Body is erect with the
feet parallel and the
arms hanging at the
sides with the palms
facing forward.

Pronation
Rotation
Extension
Flexion
Types of Body Movements


Abduction: moving
a limb away from the
midline
Adduction: moving
a limb towards the
body midline
Types of Body Movements


Supination: moving
the palm from a
posterior position to an
anterior position
(anatomical position)
Pronation: moving the
palm of the hand from
an anterior, position to
a posterior position.
Types of Body Movements


Flexion: decreases the
angle of the joint and
brings two bones closer
together
Extension: movement
increases the angle of the
joint and increases the
distance between two
bones.
Types of Body Movements

Rotation: movement of bone around
longitudinal axis; shaking head “no”
Types of Body Movements

Circumduction:
proximal end of the
limb is stationary,
and its distal end
moves in a circle
Types of Muscles – Related to
Movement

Antagonist: muscles that oppose or reverse
a movement of the prime mover.
Types of Body Movements


Inversion: turning
the sole of the foot
so that it faces
medially
Eversion: turning
the sole of the foot
laterally
Directional Terms



Directional terms are used to describe the
directional relationship of one body structure
to another

Terms: Superior, Inferior, Anterior, Posterior,
Medial, Lateral, Proximal, Distal, Superficial,
Deep
Body Planes
Body Planes

Sagittal Plane:
separates the body
longitudinally into right
and left parts
Body Planes

Frontal Plane:
separates the body on
a longitudinal plane into
anterior and posterior
parts (front and back)
Body Planes

Transverse Plane:
separates the body
horizontally into
superior and inferior
parts
