anatomy | Greek: to cut up the structure |
physiology | Greek: physis=nature, logis=logic. A branch of biology that deals with teh processes and activities of living beings and relates form to function |
Basal Nomina Anatomica (BNA) | universal anatomical nomenclature (1895, Basel, Switzerland) 1) all terms in Latin (but countries can translate) 2) Each structure has one term 3) Terms should be descriptive |

5 types of tissue | 1) Epithelial 2) Connective 3) Muscular 4) Nervous 5) Vascular |
epithelial tissue | cells arranged in mosaics forming sheets that cover surfaces of the body and line tubes or passages leading to the interior of the body and line the cavities of the body |
types of epithelium | 1) endothelial 2) mesothelium 3) epithelium proper |
endothelial | flat, single layers of cells. smooth surfaces. lines blood and lymph vessels. |
mesothelium | lines the pleural cavities, peritoneal cavity, and the pericardial cavity |
epithelium proper | epidermis and internal membranes which are continuous with the skin (mucous membranes lining the digestive, respiratory, urinary, and generative tracts) |
connective tissue | relatively few cells and proportionately large amount of intercellular substance (matrix) classified on the basis of the characteristics of the nonliving intercellular substances which compose the matrix, not on the living cell characteristics |
loose connective tissue | areolar adipose |
areolar tissue | just beneath the skin (bed for skin and mucous membrane) loose. cells in irregular network of fibers |
adipose tissue | like areolar but with fat cells |
dense connective tissue | closely packed fibers. often collagenous or elastic fibers. classified on basis of intercellular substances: white/unyielding or yellow/yielding tendons, ligaments, fascia, reticular |
tendons | tough, nonelastic cords composed of closely packed parallel fibers connect muscles to bone, cartilage, or one another |
apeneurosis | white, flattened, tendonous coverings of muscles |
ligaments | closely packed parallel elastic fibers bone to bone, cartilage to bone, cartilage to cartilage |
fascia | responsible for the arrangement of muscles into functional units subcutaneous fascia is found over the entire body just under the skin |
reticular tissue | primative. provides supporting framework for essential organs like the liver delicate matrix of cells with processes extending to adjoining cells |
hyaline cartilage | blusih-white, transparent when fresh. covers articular surfaces of joints and forms framework for lower respiratory tract no blood supply. becomes yellow and brittle w/ age |
elastic cartilage | yellow and opaque b/c of elastic fibers flexible. (ear, epiglottis, larynx) |
fibrocartilage | dense network of collagenous fibers and cartilage cells forms the intervertibral discs of spinal column |
bone | withstands compression like concrete. very tensile. organic salts compose 2/3 (85% calcium phosphate, 15% calcium carbonate, calcium flouride, and magnesium flouride) 206 bones in adult human body |
axial skeleton | head and trunk |

myocardium | only found in the heart properties of smooth and striated muscle |
nerve tissue | composed of irritable cells that are able to modify their biochemical composition 3 parts: 1) cell body 2) dendrites 3) axons |
dendrites | carry info to the cell body from other cells. short w/ multiple branches |
