Types of Anatomy
this is the study of macroscopic structures of an organism
What is gross anatomy?
This is the study of tissues.
What is histology?
This is the boundary of the cell that holds cell together, controls what goes in and out of the cell
What is the plasma membrane?
This level of organization makes up all the parts of a cell's organelles.
What is molecular (or molecules)?
This type of feedback is a good thing and keeps the body at specific set points for ideal function.
What is negative feedback?
This is the study of how the anatomy of different organisms are similar
What is comparative anatomy?
This type of tissue includes the skin, lining of organs and glands.
What is epithelial tissue?
This is the liquid within the cell which contains dissolved ions, proteins and other chemicals the cell needs
What is the cytosol or cytoplasm?
This level of organization includes cells of similar function all working together.
What are tissues?
This type of feedback will lead to death if it is not interrupted by external actions. Its only useful form is in pregnancy.
What is surface anatomy?
This is the tissue found in the muscular system.
What is muscle (or muscular) tissue?
These are sometimes called the "kitchens" of the cells because they make proteins.
What are ribosomes?
This level of organization includes all the organs needed for a specific purpose in the body.
what is an organ system?
This is the part of a feedback mechanism that causes a change in the body's normal function.
What is the stress?
This is the study of a specific area of the body.
What is regional anatomy?
This is the tissue found in the brain, spinal cord, nerves and eye.
What is nervous tissue?
These are a set of tubes in the cell that produce lipids and carbohydrates and carries them throughout the cell
What is smooth endoplasmic reticulum or smooth E.R?
This level of organization is made of more than one tissue type that performs a common function.
What is an organ?
This is the part of a feedback mechanism that monitors and reports changes in the body's normal set points.
What are receptors?
This is the study of the parts of different organ systems.
What is systemic anatomy?
This tissue includes those found in bone, cartilage and blood.
What is connective tissue?
These are packaging centers to package chemicals into vesicles for secretion
What are Golgi bodies or Golgi apparatus?
This level of organization is made of the full collection of all organ systems required for a complete living being.
What is an organism?
These are the body system or systems that respond to keep ideal set points of the body in place.
What are effectors?
