AnatomyAnatomy
• “tome” means to cut in Greek
• Describes the structures of the body:
– what they are made of– what they are made of
– where they are located
– associated structures
7
PhysiologyPhysiology
• Is the study of:
– functions of anatomical structures, both
individual and cooperativeindividual and cooperative
8
KEY CONCEPTKEY CONCEPT
• All physiological functions are performed by specific anatomical structures
• Principle of complementarity says that structureand function are complementary
– Function always reflects structure
– What a structure can do depends on its specific form
9
IntroductionIntroduction
• Key to learning anatomy is understanding function
– For example:
Left side of heart is larger than right.Left side of heart is larger than right.
– Why is that?
Structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) are
intimately related
10
Gross AnatomyGross Anatomy
• Structures large enough that one can see with the unaided eye
– Surface Anatomy - study of superficial markingsmarkings
– Regional Anatomy - The study of specific areas of the body (e.g. head, trunk)
– Systemic Anatomy - Study of the 11* specific organ systems

• We will start from the smallest and finish with the
largest

13
Levels of OrganizationLevels of Organization
•• Chemical Level:Chemical Level: - atoms (e.g. carbon) combine to form molecules (e.g. glucose)
•• Cellular level:Cellular level:
– Smallest living units in organisms
– Cells contain organelles, each with a function
•• Tissue level Tissue level - different groups of cells that perform a function
•• Organ Level Organ Level - Different types of tissues that perform a common function
•• Organ system Organ system – consists of different organs that work closely together

15
HomeostasisHomeostasis
• Homeostasis: ability to maintain a relatively stable internal environment in an ever-changing outside world
• All body systems working together to maintain a stable internal environment, respond to external and internal changes to function within a normal range internal changes to function within a normal range (body temperature, fluid balance)
• The internal environment of the body is in a dynamic state of equilibrium
• Failure to function within a normal range results in disease
16
Homeostatic Control MechanismsHomeostatic Control Mechanisms
• Variables produce a change in the body
• The three interdependent components of control mechanisms:
– Receptor – monitors the environments and responds to changes (stimuli).
– Control center – determines the set point at which the variable is maintained.
– Effector – provides the means to respond to stimuli.

RegulationRegulation
• Most regulatory systems in the body use extrinsic regulation:
– responses controlled by nervousnervous and endocrineendocrine systems, e.g. brain regulates body temp.temp.
• Usually occurs by negative feedback which can be modeled as a thermostat:
19
Negative FeedbackNegative Feedback
• Most common way that homeostasis is
maintained in the body
• In negative feedback systems the response • In negative feedback systems the response
of the effector negates or opposes the
stimulus (shuts off the original stimulus)
• Example: Regulation of room temperature

• Cholecalciferol can also be absorbed by the digestive tract.
• Calcitriol is essential for the intestinal absorption of calcium andphosphorus.
• Inadequate calcitriol leads to impaired bone maintenance andgrowth.

The arrector pili muscle originates in the connective tissue sheath ofthe hair follicle and inserts into the papillary layer of the dermis.

Sweat GlandsSweat Glands
The skin contains two types of sweat glands:The skin contains two types of sweat glands:
(1) Apocrine sweat glands and
(2) Merocrine sweat glands (Figure 5-12).

(2) Merocrine sweat glands (Figure 5-12).
These names refer to the mechanism of
secretion, introduced in Chapter 4.
157Mechanisms of Glandular Secretion:
(a) (a) MerocrineMerocrine secretion:secretion: secretory vesicles are discharged at the apical surface of the gland cell by exocytosis.
(b)(b) ApocrineApocrine secretionsecretion:: involves the loss ofapical cytoplasm.
157
(c)(c) HolocrineHolocrine secretionsecretion:: occurs as superficialgland cells burst. Continued secretion involvesthe replacement of these cells through themitotic division of underlying stem cells.
apical cytoplasm.
The gland cell then undergoes growth andrepair before it releases additional secretions.

discourages the growth of microorganisms in two ways
through the action of dermicidindermicidin that has powerful
antibiotic properties.
