Made by the body
Chemical messengers that regulate body functions
Hormones
Nearer to the tail or away from the head
Caudal
Epicardium: Outer layer.
Myocardium: Muscular middle layer.
Endocardium: Inner layer
Heart
Sense of smell(sensory)
Olfactory
Small masses of lymphatic tissue found in the ileum of the small intestine, which help to prevent the growth of pathogenic bacteria in the intestines
Peyer's Patches
A fluid that circulates through the lymphatic system, containing white blood cells, especially lymphocytes
Lymph
Pertaining to the elbow
Cubital
Renal capsule: Tough outer surface
Renal hilum: where major structures (renal artery, renal vein, and ureter)
enter/exit
Eye movements, pupil constriction (Motor)
Oculomotor
Produces insulin and glucagon, regulates blood sugar; known as a heterocrine gland due to endocrine & exocrine functions
Pancreas
Contain hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from
the lungs to the body's tissues and returns carbon dioxide from the tissues back to
the lungs
Erythrocytes (RBC)
Boundaries-Superior (Base): Inguinal ligament.
Medial: Adductor longus muscle.
Lateral: Sartorius muscle
Femoral Triangle
Ectoderm: Develops into the skin and nervous system.
Mesoderm: Develops into muscles, bones, and the circulatory system.
Endoderm: Develops into the lining of the digestive and respiratory systems
Fetal germ layers
Controls tongue movements (Motor)
Hypoglossal
Systole: Contraction phase of the heart.
Diastole: Relaxation phase of the hear
Cardiac cycle
Produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder, helps digest fats
Bile
Liver: Produces bile.
Gallbladder: Stores bile.
Pancreas: Produces digestive enzymes and hormones
Accessory Organs
Frontal Lobe: Involved in decision-making, problem-solving, and
planning.
(2) Parietal Lobes: Processes sensory information such as touch,
temperature, and pain.
(2) Temporal Lobes: Involved in hearing, memory, and speech.
Occipital Lobe: Responsible for vision
Cerebrum
Eye movements (superior oblique muscle) (Motor)
Trochlear
Acts as a relay station for sensory information, directing it to the
appropriate areas of the brain for processing
Thalamus
Pineal gland produces-- to regulate circadian rhythum
Melatonin
Tendinous cords anchor the cusps of the atrioventricular (tricuspid and bicuspid/mitral) valves to the papillary muscles in the ventricles. They prevent the valve cusps from inverting into the atria during ventricular contraction
Chordae Tendinae
3 sections
Nasopharynx: Located behind the nasal cavity; air passageway.
Oropharynx: Located behind the oral cavity; passageway for food and air.
Laryngopharynx: Located behind the larynx; passageway for food and air
Pharynx
Hearing, balance (Sensory)
Vestibulocochlear
Functional units of the kidneys, filter blood to form urine
Nephrons
