| Questão | Responda |
| Anatomy | Study of the structure and shape of the body and its parts |
| Physiology | Study of how the body and its parts work or function |
| Structural Organisation that make up the body | Atoms, Molecules, Cells, Tissues, Organs, Organ Systems, Organismal |
| List 4 types of tissues | Epithelial Tissue, Connective tissue, Muscle tissue, Nervous tissue, |
| Epithelial Tissue location | Covers outside of the inside skin, e.g. inside of the stomach/lungs |
| Connective tissue location | Connects, supports, binds or seperates other tissues or organs |
| Muscle Tissue | Causes movement |
| Nervous tissue | Regulates, and controls bodily functions and activities |
| List the 11 organ systems | Digestive, Urinary, Cardiovascular, Lymphatic, Respiratory, Muscular, Skeletal, Endocrine, Integumentary, Reproductive, Nervous |
| Digestive System | Breakdown of foods into very small components which can be absorbed and assimilated into the body |
| Urinary System | Produce, Store and discharge waste |
| Cardiovascular System | Permits blood to circulate and transport nutrients |
| Lymphatic System | Transport lymph from tissues on return to the blood system, filters and cleans the lump of any debris and abnormal cells |
| Respiratory System | Deliver oxygen to the body and remove carbon dioxide |
| Muscular System | Permits movement, maintains posture and circulates blood |
| Skeletal System | Framework of the body, consisting of bones and other connective tissue. Protects body tissues and internal organs |
| Endocrine System | Glands that produce hormones that regulate the body, e.g. growth, sexual function |
| Integumentary System | Protects body from various damage, such as loss of water or abrasion from outside - skin |
| Reproductive System | Production of new individuals, sperm transferred to a female egg |
| Nervous System | Production of nerve cells and fibres which transmits nerve impulse between parts of the body. Controls the body |
| What is Homeostasis | Property of a system in which variables are regulated so that internal conditions remain stable and relatively constant |
| What is Negative Feedback | Causes in blance. Homeostasis shuts off or reduces original stimulus |
| What is Positive Feedback | The output enhances original stimuli such as child birth |
| Planes | Planes |
| Superior | Toward the head end or upper part of a structure "The forehead is superior to the nose" |
| Inferior | Away from the head end or toward the lower part of a structure or the body, below "The navel is inferior to the breastbone" |
| Anterior | Toward or at the front of the body; In front of "The breastbone is anterior to the spine" |
| Posterior | Toward or at the backside of the body; behind "The heart is posterior to the breastbone" |
| Medial | Toward or at the midline of the body; on the inner side of "The heart is medial to the arm" |
| Lateral | Away from the midline of the body; on the outer side of "The arms are lateral to the chest" |
| intermediate | Between a more medial and a more lateral structure "The collarbone is intermediate between the breastbone and the shoulder" |
| Proximal | Close to the origin of the body part or the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk "The elbow is proximal to the wrist (Meaning that the elbow is closer to the shoulder or attachment point of the arm than the wrist)" |
| Distal | Farther from the origin of a body part of the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk "The knee is distal to the thigh" |
| Superficial | Toward or at the body surface "The skin is superficial to the skeleton" |
| Deep | Away from the body surface; more internal "The lungs are deep to the ribcage" |
| Median Plane | Through the midline |
| Frontal Plane | Front/back |
| Transverse plane | Top/bottom |
