INTRODUCTION to ANATOMY & MAJOR ORGAN SYSTEMS REGIONS of the BODY
- Head: The most upper part of the body. Accommodates CNS, orbit, nasal cavity, oral cavity and related organs.
- Neck: The part between head and body.
- Trunk (body): Has 3 sub-regions: thoracic cage , abdomen and pelvis.
- Upper limb: Arm, forearm, wrist and hand
- Lower limb: Thigh, leg, ankle and foot REGIONAL TERMS
SKELETAL SYSTEM
- Major Components
- Bones
- Cartilages
- Tendons
- Ligaments
- Joints - Major Functions
- Provide protection for internal organs (skull, ribs)
- Provide support for body
- Mechanical advantage for muscular actions (levers)
- Storage of vital minerals - calcium (99%)
- Site of blood cell formation (red bone marrow) **MUSCULAR SYSTEM
- Muscular System**
- Major Components, muscles of different type/function
- Striated muscle (voluntary)
- Smooth muscle (involuntary)
- Cardiac muscle (heart) - Major Functions
- Striated muscle
- Primarily to contract on command
- Allows voluntary motions such as walking, grasping, and moving in general, facial expressions
- Smooth muscle
- Contracts to allow involuntary motion
- Along arteries, digestive tract
- Cardiac muscle
- Contracts in rhythmic fashion involuntarily
- Propels blood through lungs and body
NERVOUS SYSTEM
- Major Components
- Brain and spinal cord (CNS)
- Nerves and sensory organs (PNS) - Major Functions
- Detect changes in internal and external environment
- Respond to changes to keep body homeostatic
- Organize activities of muscles and glands
- Thoughts, ideas, behavior, emotions, memory… ENDOCRINE SYSTEM - Major Components
- Pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal, pineal glands
- Ovaries, testicles, pancreas - Major Functions
- Maintains body homeostasis, growth, development
- Produce hormones in response to a variety of stimuli (increased sugar level, sexual attraction, length of day)
- Hormones then act on target organ to cause change CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM
- Heart
- Blood vessels (arteries, veins, capillaries)
- Blood (serum, proteins, red & white cells)
- Major Functions
- Primarily a transport system moving blood
- Oxygen, carbon dioxide, ions (salts, Na,K,Ca,Cl)
- Nutrients and waste
- Hormones and proteins
- White blood cells and antibodies
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
- Major Components
- Oral cavity
- Esophagus
- Stomach
- Small and large intestine
- Rectum
- Other: teeth, salivary glands, liver, pancreas - Major Functions
- Breakdown foods into minute particles to be absorbed by the blood and delivered to body
- Remove unused foodstuff from the body as feces **URINARY SYSTEM
- Major Components**
- Kidneys
- Ureters
- Bladder
- Urethra - Major Functions
- Remove nitrogen-based waste molecules (urea, uric acid, ammonia) from the blood and body
- Maintain water balance and ion/acid balance of blood
REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
- Major Components
- Male: testicles, scrotum, penis, and production and transport system for sperm
- Female: ovaries, uterine tubes, uterus, vagina - Major Functions
- Produce gametes (sperm and egg)
- Allow means for conception to occur
- Provide environment for fetal development **IMMUNE SYSTEM
- Major Components**
- Tonsils
- Lymphatic system
- Thymus
- Spleen
- Appendix
- Bone marrow
- White blood cells
- Other special immune cells - Major Functions
- Identify foreign particles and eliminate S
BONES
- Bones are living structures having a blood and nerve supply
- All bones are covered with a layer called periosteum except their joint Surfaces
- Bones in the living body have some elasticity (provided by the organic substances) and great rigidity (provided by the unique internal anatomy constituted by inorganic substances, mainly CaPo4)
- Periosteum - Fibrous layer - Cambium layer (osteogenic) (growth in width) **- Endosteum
- Articular cartilage
- Outer bony substance**
- Cortical (compact) bone
- (Haversian + Volkmann’s canals)
- Osteon
- Cancellous (trabecular, spongy)bone
- Medullary cavity - Bone marrow
- Red bone marrow
- sternum, ilium, vertebrae
- Yellow bone marrow
- Nutrient foramens (nutrient arteries) DIFFERENT TYPES of BONES . • Long bones (have a shaft and two extremities)
- Short bones (more or less cuboidal in shape)
- Flat bones
- Irregular bones
- Pneumatic bones (contains air cells or sinuses)
- Sesamoid bones (round or oval nodules of bones that develop in certain tendons)
- Accessory bones (develops as a result of additional ossification center or lack of fuse)
SURFACE FEATURES on the BONES
- Surfaces of the bones are not smooth, bones display elevations, depressions and holes
- The surface features on the bones are given names to distinguish and define them. - Linear elevations
- line, crest - Round elevations
- tubercule (small eminence), protuberance (swelling) - Sharp elevations
- spine, process - Rounded articular areas
- head, condyle - Openings
- foramen, fissure, aperture - Facets
- area with a smooth surface where a bone articulates with another bone - Depressions
- fossae (small depression), groove (sulcus, long narrow depressions) - Canal
- a foramen having length - Orifice
- opening - Meatus
- a canal entering a structure
ARTHROLOGY study of joints ARTHROLOGY
- Arthrology is the study of joints. Joints hold bones together and allow muscles action
- Joints are formed by the articulation between the articular surfaces of two or more bones
- Joints btw. 2 bones; simple joints
- Joints btw. more than 2 bones; composite joints
- Joints with a disc or meniscus; complex joints
- Articular system consists of joints and their associated bones and ligaments
- Joints are classified into 2 groups;
- Synarthrosis (solid joints)
- Diarthrosis (freely movable joints)
GOMPHOSIS (DENTOALVEOLAR JOINT) & SYNDESMOSIS
SYNOVIAL JOINTS
ESSENTIAL FEATURES
- Articular (joint) cavity (space btw. The articular surfaces)
- Articular cartilage (hyaline cartilage covering the articular surfaces)
- Articular capsule (capsule surrounding the joint formed of two layers)
- Fibrous membrane (protects and give firmness to the joint stability)
- Synovial membrane (lines the inner surface of the fibrous membrane but does not cover the articular cartilage. Secretes a fluid known as synovial fluid. This fluid helps to minimize the friction btw articular surfaces)
MYOLOGY
study of muscles MUSCLES
- Motion
- Position (posture)
- Body heat (%85) MUSCLES
- Skeletal muscles (striated muscles) (voluntary)
- 42% of the total body weight
- Contracts & be tired fast
- Myosin (%55), actin, troponin (binds Ca), tropomyosin
- Myoglobin (protein that binds O2)
- Innervated by the somatic nerves
- Straight muscles (involuntary)
- 10% of the total body weight
- Contracts slowly
- On the walls of the organs & vessels
- Calmodulin (binds Ca)
- Lack of myoglobin
- Innervated by the autonomic nerves
- Heart muscle
- Contracts rhythmic & autonomic
- Intercalated discs btw. adjacent cells
- Innervated by the autonomic nerves
- Conduction is provided by myocytes
