Anatomy and Histology of the Small and Large Intestine MACROSCOPIC FEATURES Small Intestine The small intestine is a specialized tubular structure within the abdominal cavity in continuity with the stomach proximally and the colon distally. The small bowel increases 20 times in length with aging‚ from 200 cm in the newborn to almost 6 m in the adult‚ and its length is approximated by three times the length of the infant‚ or height of the child or adult.[1] The duodenum‚ the most proximal

Anatomy Outline Notes Exam 1 Developmental Anatomy – is the way anatomy changes over time in a single species -somites are segmental blocks found in embryos that form muscles & vertebrae etc. Comparative Anatomy – is the comparison of anatomies between different species. -all known vertebrates have common feature (skull & vertebrae): this leads to evolutionary theory. Hierarchy of Structural Organization -Body -> System -> Organ -> Tissue -> Cells -> Chemical/Molecular

WEEK 1: AN INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1. Define the terms anatomy and physiology‚ and explain their relationship using an example of a human structure with its corresponding function. Anatomy is the study of the human body while physiology‚ is the study of how the body functions. For example‚ the cardiovascular system includes the heart‚ veins‚ and blood. The heart produces a controlled electrical shock that causes the heart to contort. This creates a pumping action that pushes

Epilepsy is a group of related disorders characterized by a tendency for recurring seizures. There are different types of epilepsy and seizures. Epilepsy drugs are prescribed to control seizures‚ and rarely surgery is necessary if medications are ineffective. Epilepsy is a disorder of the brain’s electrical system. Abnormal electrical impulses cause brief changes in movement‚ behavior‚ sensation‚ or awareness. There are around 180‚000 new cases of epilepsy each year. About 30% occur in children
