2. _______________________________________ are related because
knowing the structure and shape of the body and its parts allows
you to understand how the body functions.
3. _____________________ anatomy has large structures and is
easily observable.
4. _____________________ anatomy has very small structures and
can only be viewed with a microscope.

· ___________________
f) Cardiovascular System
· Use blood as the transporting fluid pumped by the heart
· ___________________
· ___________________
· ___________________
· ___________________
g) Lymphatic System
· Compliments the cardiovascular system
· Stores ___________________

8. What are the survival needs?
1)
· Chemicals for energy and cell building
· Includes carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins and
minerals
2)
· Required for chemical reactions
3)
· 60-80% of body weight
· Provides for metabolic reaction
4)
· Stable body temperature
5)
· Atmospheric pressure must be appropriate
9. Homeostasis
· ___________________ of a stable internal environment
· A dynamic state of equilibrium
· Homeostasis must be maintained for a normal body functioning
and to ___________________
10. Communication through neural and hormonal control system
· ___________________
· Responds to changes in the environment
· Sends information to control center
· ___________________
· Determines set points and analyzes information
· Determines appropriate response
· ___________________
· Provides a means for response to the stimulus
11. Homeostatic Control System
12. Homeostatic Controls
· ______________________________________
· Mechanisms are rare in the body
· Increase the original disturbance (stimulus) and push
variables further from original value
· Ex: Blood Clotting at the birth of the baby
· ______________________________________
· Most of homeostatic controls
· Shut off original stimulus to reduce its intensity
· Ex: a home heating system connected to thermostat
13. Language of Anatomy
· Special terminology is used to prevent misunderstanding
· Exact Terms are used for:
· ___________________
· ___________________
· ___________________
· ___________________
14. Orientation and Directional Terms
· ___________________: Toward the head end or upper part of a
structure or the body, above
· ___________________: Away from the head end or toward the
lower part of a structure or the body, below
· ___________________: Toward or at the backside of the body,
behind
· ___________________: Toward or at the front of the body, in
front of
· ___________________: Toward or at the midline of the body on
the inner side
· ___________________: Away from the midline of the body on the
outer side
· ___________________: Toward or at the body surface
· ___________________: Between a more medial and a more lateral
structure.
· ___________________: Close to the origin of the body part or
the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk.
· ___________________: Farther from the origin of a body part or
the point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk.
