Anatomy
- Internal and external structure
- Physical relationships among body parts
Microscopic anatomy
Study of:
Gross anatomy
Physiology
Study of:
- human body function
Most physiological processes occur to maintain “Homeostasis”
Homeostatic Regulation
Homeostasis• “Steady State”• Maintain stable internal conditions regardless
of external environment
• Temperature
• Blood pressure
• Ionic concentrations
• Blood sugar levels, etc.
But there is a challenge…
Homeostasis
STRESS
Feedback Mechanisms:
Control system
Response (effect)
= anything that disrupts homeostasis
Stress (stimulus)
Homeostatic Regulation
Negative Feedback:•Variation outside normal limits
triggers automatic corrective response
•Response opposes stimulus (& therefore negates effect)
Feedback Mechanisms
Negative Feedback:
HomeostasisStress Results in loss of homeostasis
Negative feedback response
Results in return to homeostasis

Levels of Organization
• Chemical (or Molecular)
• Cellular
• Tissue
• Organ
• Organ System
• Organism
Life is built on successive levels of increasing complexity:

Overview of Organ Systems
The human body is arranged in 11 organ systems:
• Integumentary•Skeletal•Muscular•Nervous•Endocrine
•Cardiovascular•Lymphatic•Respiratory•Digestive•Urinary•Reproductive

The Metric System
• Standard system of measurement used in science & around the world
• Based on units of 10
• Utilizes a standard metric unit depending upon whether you are measuring
• length – meter (m)
• volume – liter (L)
• mass – gram (g)
The Metric System
The standard units of measurement (m, L, g) can be modified by the addition of a prefix, which will change the value of the measurement
The most commonly used prefixes include:
mega (M) = 1,000,000
kilo (k) – 1000
centi (c) – 1/100
milli (m) – 1/1000
micro (u) – 1/1,000,000
nano (n) – 1/1,000,000,000

The Metric System
To change from smaller units --> larger units, you must DIVIDE by the appropriate factor of 10 (because there or less larger units that fit into the number).
ie: 1 millimeter (1mm) = 1/1000 meters = 0.001 m5 millimeters (5mm) = 5/10 centimeters (cm) =
0.5 cmNote: dividing a number by a factor of 10 is the same thing as moving the decimal point to the LEFT.
The Metric System
To change from larger units --> smaller units, you must MULTIPLY by the appropriate factor of 10 (because there are more smaller units that go into the number).
ie: 5 km = 5,000 m3 kg (kilograms) = 3,000,000 mg (milligrams) = 3x 106 mg
Note: multiplying a number by a factor of 10 is the same as moving the decimal to the RIGHT.
