Chapter 1: Introduction to Anatomy and
Physiology
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
For the first lecture test, I should be able to…
• A. Define anatomy and physiology.
•
1.
Explain how they are related.
•
2.
Describe major specialties of each.
• B. Define homeostasis and explain its importance for
survival.
•
1.Compare/contrast intrinsic and extrinsic regulation
and provide an example of each.
•
2.Compare/contrast negative and positive feedback and
provide an example of each.
•
3.Discuss the relationship between homeostasis and
disease.

• Anatomy
• Describes the structures of the
body
• What they are made of
• Where they are located
• Associated structures
• Physiology
• Is the study of:
• Functions of anatomical structures
• Individual and cooperative functions
• Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Genetics

Relationships between Anatomy and Physiology
• Anatomy
• Gross anatomy, or macroscopic
anatomy, examines large, visible
structures
• Surface anatomy: exterior features
• Regional anatomy: body areas
• Systemic anatomy: organ systems
• Developmental anatomy: from
conception to death
• Clinical anatomy: medical specialties
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
Relationships between Anatomy and Physiology
• Microscopic anatomy examines cells and molecules
• Cytology: study of cells and their structures
• cyt- = cell
• Histology: study of tissues and their structures

1-4 Relationships between Anatomy and
Physiology
• Physiology
• Cell physiology: processes within and
between cells
• Organ physiology: functions of specific
organs
• Systemic physiology: functions of an
organ system
• Pathological physiology: effects of
diseases

1-5 Levels of Organization
• The Chemical (or Molecular) Level
• Atoms are the smallest chemical units
• Molecules are a group of atoms working together
• The Cellular Level
• Cells are a group of atoms, molecules, and organelles working
together
• The Tissue Level
• A tissue is a group of similar cells working together
• The Organ Level
• An organ is a group of different tissues working together
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
1-5 Levels of Organization
• The Organ System Level
• An organ system is a group of organs working together
• Humans have 11 organ systems
• The Organism Level
• A human is an organism

KEY CONCEPT
• The body is divided into 11 organ systems
• All organ systems work together
• Many organs work in more than 1 organ
system
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
1-6 Homeostasis
• Homeostasis
• All body systems working together to maintain a
stable internal environment
• Systems respond to external and internal changes
to function within a normal range (body
temperature, fluid balance)
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
1-6 Homeostasis
• Mechanisms of Regulation
• Autoregulation (intrinsic)
• Automatic response in a cell, tissue, or organ to some
environmental change
• Extrinsic regulation
• Responses controlled by nervous and endocrine
systems
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
1-6 Homeostasis
• Receptor
• Receives the
stimulus
• Control center
• Processes the
signal and sends
instructions
• Effector
• Carries out
instructions

In response to input from a receptor (a thermometer), a thermostat
(the control center) triggers an effector response (either an air conditioner or a heater) that restores normal temperature. In this case,
when room temperature rises above the set point, the thermostat
turns on the air conditioner, and the temperature returns to normal.

With this regulatory system, room

1-7 Negative and Positive Feedback
• The Role of Negative Feedback
• The response of the effector negates the stimulus
• Body is brought back into homeostasis
• Normal range is achieved

Events in the regulation of body temperature, which are
comparable to those shown in Figure 12. A control center
in the brain (the hypothalamus) functions as a thermostat
with a set point of 37°C. If body temperature exceeds
37.2°C, heat loss is increased through enhanced blood flow
to the skin and increased sweating.

The thermoregulatory center keeps

between 36.7 and 37.2°C.
1-7 Negative and Positive Feedback
• The Role of Positive Feedback
• The response of the effector increases change of the
stimulus
• Body is moved away from homeostasis
• Normal range is lost
• Used to speed up processes

Chemicals
Damage to cells in the
blood vessel wall releases
chemicals that begin the
process of blood clotting.
© 2012 Pearson Education, Inc.
The chemicals start chain
reactions in which cells,
cell fragments, and
soluble proteins in the
blood begin to form a clot.
As clotting continues,
each step releases
chemicals that further
accelerate the process.
Blood clot
This escalating process
is a positive feedback
loop that ends with the
formation of a blood clot,
which patches the vessel
wall and stops the bleeding.
1-7 Negative and Positive Feedback
• Systems Integration
• Systems work together to maintain homeostasis
• Homeostasis is a state of equilibrium
• Opposing forces are in balance
• Dynamic equilibrium — continual adaptation
• Physiological systems work to restore balance
• Failure results in disease or death
