Human Anatomy and Physiology Anatomy - the study of the form or structure and arrangement of body parts and their relationships Physiology - the study of the functions of the body parts or structures and their relationships in maintaining life processes. Levels of Structural Organization The human body consists of levels of structural organization that are associated with one another. There are six levels of structural organization: I. chemical level - It is the simplest level and it includes

Introduction Cardiovascular Dynamics and the Cardiovascular Physiology experiments both have multiple goals. The first experiment aims to understand how blood flow‚ pressure gradient‚ and resistance relate to one another. To understand this‚ resistance and contributing factors‚ such as vessel radius‚ viscosity‚ and vessel length must be studied. The effects of vessel radius and stroke volume on the ventricular pump should also examined. The experiment also calls for an understanding of cardiovascular

A&P – P 1 OF 2 This course is a study of “Human Anatomy and Physiology.” Humans can be classified as: - Animals (we are multicellular‚ motile organisms that lack cell walls) - Vertebrates (we have backbones) - Mammals (we have hair‚ mammary glands‚ 3 bones in each ear) - Primates (we have opposable thumbs‚ 2 clavicles‚ forward facing eyes) - Hominids (we are bipedal and have a large brain size to body size ratio). Anatomy is the study of animal structure. The word comes

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY The pelvis is a large semicircular bone complex that forms the base on which the torso and upper body are positioned. The pelvis‚ which is a rigid and inflexible portion of the skeleton‚ is built to provide a foundation of the movement of other parts of the anatomy‚ particularly the back and the legs. The pelvis also permits the weight of the entire upper body to be evenly distributed

that is pumped by the heart and circulated through the body via a system of arteries and veins. It is an essential component of the body and without it we would not be able to survive. This paper discusses the anatomy and physiology of blood in a brief review. Anatomy and Physiology of Blood The blood is made up of four main components. These are plasma‚ red blood cells‚ white blood cells and platelets. The blood is circulated throughout the body by one of two types of vessels; arteries or

Anatomy and physiology of the brain and spinal cord The brain is a spongy organ made up of nerve and supportive tissues. It is located in the head and is protected by a bony covering called the skull. The base‚ or lower part‚ of the brain is connected to the spinal cord. Together‚ the brain and spinal cord are known as the central nervous system (CNS). The spinal cord contains nerves that send information to and from the brain. The CNS works with the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The PNS

results compare with your prediction? If extracellular K+ is increased then the intracellular K+ will decrease. Fewer intracellular K+ ions would result in the membrane potential being less negative. The results of my prediction were the same. 3. Explain why a change in extracellular Na+ did not alter the membrane potential in the resting neuron. There are less Na+ leak channels than K+ leak channels‚ and more of the K+ channels are open. 4. Discuss the relative permeability of the membrane
