3. Why are anatomy and physiology studied together?: The structure of a part
of the body often reflects its function.
4. Homeostasis: maintaining a stable internal environment within the body
5. Two sub disciplines of anatomy: Cell biology and histology
6. Two sub disciplines of physiology: exercise physiology and immunology
7. . List the six levels of structural organization:
1) Chemical Level (atoms & molecules)
ex. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)
2) Cellular Level ex.
muscle cells
3) Tissue Level ex.
connective tissue
4) Organ Level
ex. heart
5) System Level
ex. Digestive
System
6) Organism
Level ex. human
9. List the 11 organ systems of the body: 1. Integumentary
2. Reproductive
3. Urinary
4. Digestive
5. Endocrine
6. Lymphatic
7. Skeletal

loops controlling homeostasis?: Cardiovascular System and Endocrine System

-external environment i.e. heat
-internal environment i.e. skip breakfast - glucose level drops
12 List three components of a feedback loop: 1) receptor - monitors changes

room temp gets to hot, A/C kicks on

but detectable by a doctorex. fever, hypertension, elevated glucose level

19. Why do anatomy and physiology involve such a large collection of
terms?: allows us to communicate clearly and precisely
20. Describe standard anatomical position.: -facing observer
-standing upright
-legs slightly apart
-arms at side
-palms facing forward
21. Meaning of right and left in anatomy: when observing the body in
anatomical position, the left of the body is on the observer's right & vice versa
