Define anatomy |
The study of structure of body parts and their relationships to one another. |
|
The two major types of anatomic study |
Microscopic- Examines the body structures that can't be observed by the naked eye. Gross anatomy (Macroscopic)- Examines the structure and relationships of large body parts visible to the naked eye. |
|
The subdivisions of microscopic anatomy |
Cytology-study of single body cells and their internal structures. Histology-study of tissues examining how groups of specialized cells and their products function for a common purpose. |
|
The subdivisions of Gross anatomy (Macroscopic) |
Developmental anatomy Regional anatomy Embryology anatomy Surface anatomy systemic anatomy |

|
Describe anatomical position and explain its significance |
Anatomical position is also known as the universal reference point. As a result, the body is erect,face/eyes forward,upper limbs at side palms forward, lower limbs parallel, feet/toes forward. |
|
Describe the anatomical planes of selection |
1. Sagittal- any vertical plane cutting the body into left and right 2.Median/Midsagittal- a vertical plane that passes through the midline of the body divided into left and right. 3. Frontal/Coronal-divides the body into anterior and posterior portions 4. Transverse/Horizontal-divides body into sueprior and inferior portions. |
|
Compare and contrast bilateral and unilateral |
Bilateral occurs on both sides of the midline. However, unilateral occurs on only one side of the midline. |
|
Compare and contrast ipsilateral and contralateral |
Ipsilateral occurs same side of the body. Contralateral opposite sides of the body |
|
Define the terms that describe the location of a body structure relative to the front or back of body |
Anterior-towards the front of the body Posterior-towards the back of the body |
|
Define the terms that describe the location of a body structure relative to the head |
Superior-towards the head Inferior-towards the feet |
|
Define the terms that describe the location of a body structure relative to the body surface |
Superficial- Closer to the surface(on top) Deep-further from the surface (inside) |
|
Define the terms that describe the location of a body structure relative to the beginning of a limb |
Proximal-closer to th beginning of limb distal-further from the beginning of limb |

What is the functional unit of the nervous tissue? |
neurons |
|
What are the supporting cells of the nervous tissue? |

|
The basal is surface of an epithelium is fixed to an underlying connective tissue. What structurally separates the two different tissue types? |
layers |
|
Epithelia lack blood vessels. What is the term that means lack of blood vessels? |
Avascularity |
|
If a cell is keratinized is the surface layer of cells alive or dead? |
