A&P: Ch 1.1

the branch of biology concerned with the study of the structure of organisms and their parts.

• anatomy
• cellular organization
• physiology
• anatomical imaging

subdivides the body into discrete organ systems that work together towards a common goal or function (looks at anatomy based on systems)

• systemic anatomy
• anatomy
• regional anatomy
• surface anatomy

the study of anatomy based on regions or divisions of the body and emphasizing the relations between various structures (muscles, nerves, and arteries etc.) in that region.

• regional anatomy
• systemic anatomy
• anatomy
• anatomical imaging

the study of external anatomical features without dissection (usually is determined by a manual manipulation)

• surface anatomy
• regional anatomy
• systemic anatomy
• anatomy

allows medical workforce to inspect the internal parts of the body with exceptional accuracy without the injury and danger of exploratory surgery. They use things such as X-rays, CTs, and MRIs.

• anatomical imaging
• surface anatomy
• regional anatomy
• systemic anatomy

human body’s functions to work together to maintain a stable internal environment .

• physiology
• cellular organization
• cells
• tissues

the basic building blocks of all living things.

• cells
• physiology
• cellular organization
• organelles

groups of cells or fluids that work together to perform a specific job in the body.

• tissues
• cells
• physiology
• organelles

any of a number of organized or specialized structures within a living cell

• organelles
• tissues
• cells
• physiology

a collection of tissues that structurally form a functional unit specialized to perform a particular function, such as lungs, heart, liver, stomach, etc

• organs
• organelles
• tissues
• cells
