Anatomy & Physiology Course Discussion Outline Chapter 1 – Introduction to Human Anatomy & Physiology Chapter 1 Preview: This chapter first defines and contrasts anatomy and physiology and the levels of organizational complexity within the human body. Three essential concepts – the levels of biological organization, the maintenance of life (homeostasis) and the language of anatomy will form the foundation for the study of the human body. Outline: I. Introduction to Anatomy & Physiology a. Definitions of Anatomy & Physiology b. Branches of Anatomy i. Gross (Regional / Systemic / Surface) ii. Microscopic (Cytology / Histology) iii. Developmental iv. Pathological c. Branches of Physiology i. Systemic ii. Pathological d. History of Anatomy & Physiology i. Hippocrates ii. Galen iii. Vesalius iv. Anatomy Murders Anatomy Act of 1832 v. Modern Anatomy & Physiology II. Levels of Structural Organization and Maintenance of Life a. Organizational Hierarchy i. Chemical (Atoms / Molecules / Macromolecules) / Organelles / Cells / Tissues / Organs / Organ Systems / Organism ii. Overview of Human Body Systems b. Maintenance of Life i. Living Requirements ii. Homeostasis 1. Introduction / Dynamic State of Equilibrium 2. Homeostatic Control (Mechanism) a. Negative Feedback Mechanism b. Positive Feedback Mechanism III. Organization of the Human Body a. Body Cavities and Sub-cavities i. Dorsal (Cranial / Vertebral) ii. Ventral (Thoracic / Abdominal / Pelvic) iii. Other (Oral / Nasal / Orbital / Ear / Synovial) b. Thoracic and Abdominal Membranes i. Parietal vs. Visceral Layers c. Anatomical Membranes (Pleura / Pericardial / Peritoneal) IV. The Language of Anatomy a. Anatomical Position and Directional Terminology i. Superior / Inferior ii. Anterior (Ventral) / Posterior (Dorsal) iii. Medial / Lateral / Intermediate / Ipsilateral / Contralateral / Bilateral iv. Proximal / Distal v. Superficial / Deep b. Planes and Sections of the Human Body i. Sagittal (Midsagittal / Parasagittal) ii. Transverse iii. Coronal iv. Oblique c. Body Regions and Terms i. Abdominopelvic Quadrants (4) ii. Abdominopelvic Regions (9) iii.
