Welcome to Anatomy & Physiology II
Mr. Charles Martinez III, M.S.
The Human Body: An Orientation The Muscular System
(muscular dystrophy/steroids) The Nervous System (epilepsy and narcolepsy) Special Senses (color blindness and accupuncture) Blood and Cardiovascular System
(aneurysms/stroke complications) Respiratory System Digestive System The Endocrine System (Ebola virus)
What will I learn?
The Human Body: An Orientation Goals:
To verbally and visually describe the anatomical position. To locate the three body planes and use correct anatomical terminology for directions associated with body planes. To quickly overview and name major bones in preparation for the skeletal system. To define terms associated with body movement, specifically: flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, eversion/inversion.
The Human Body—An Orientation
Anatomy Study of the structure and shape of the body and
its partsPhysiology
Study of how the body and its parts work or function
The Language of Anatomy Special terminology is used to prevent
misunderstanding Exact terms are used for

Body Planes and Sections
A sagittal section divides the body (or organ) into left and right parts
A median, or midsagittal, section divides the body (or organ) into equal left and right parts
A frontal section divides the body (or organ) into anterior and posterior parts
A transverse, or cross, section divides the body (or organ) into superior and inferior parts

the directional terms associated with each plane.

Terms for Body Movement
Flexion
Extension
Terms for Body Movement
Flexion-Decreases the angle of the joint-Brings two bones closer together-Typical of hinge joints like knee and elbow
Extension-Opposite of flexion-Increases the angle between two bones
Terms for Body Movement
Tools for Measuring Body Movement
Goniometer
Terms for Body Movement
Adduction
Abduction
Terms for Body Movement
Adduction-Movement of a limb towards the midline
Abduction-Movement of a limb away from the
midline Circumduction

Inversion
Eversion
Terms for Body Movement Inversion
-Medial movement of plantar aspect of foot
Eversion-Lateral movement of plantar aspect of foot
