Define Anatomy and Physiology
Study of structure, study of function and processes
What is anatomical position?
Upright, forward, and palms up
Compare and contrast atoms, elements, and subatomic particles.
Atoms- smallest unit
Elements- made up of one atom
subatomic- particles that make up an atom
explain relationship between molecules and compounds
Molecules- 2 or more atoms bonded
Compounds- 2 different elements
Describe role of ATP
Primary energy source
Energy is released when ATP is hydrolyzed to ADP

superficial
deep
visceral
parietal
superior
inferior

1. Protons (+)
2. Neutrons (neutral)
3. Electrons (-)
Relationship between monomers and polymers
Monomers- building blocks of macromolecules
Polymers- larger molecules made up of repeating monomers units linked together
Structure of proteins and importance of them
4 layers, for growth, repair, and regulation
List the organ systems/ (11) and identify function
1. Integumentary (protects)
2. Skeletal (structure/protects organs)
3. Muscular (allows movement)
4. Nervous (transmits signals)
5. Endocrine (regulates body)
6. Cardiovascular (transport nutrients)
7. Lymphatic (defend against pathogens)
8. Respiratory (gas exchange)
9. Digestive (breakdown food)
10. Urinary (eliminate waste)
11. Reproductive (reproduce)
Name the three planes.
Transverse
Coronal (frontal)
Sagittal (midsagittal, parasagittal)
4 abundant elements in body
Oxygen
hydrogen
carbon
nitrogen
Define solution, solute, and solvent
Solution- mix of 2 or more substances, one being dissolved
Solute- what is being dissolved
Solvent- dissolves the solute
What are the four lipids important to human functioning
Triglycerides
phospholipids
steroids
waxes
What is homeostasis?
What are the body cavities?
Thoracic
abdominal
Dorsal
ventral
What are ions, free radical, and radioisotope?
ions- gain or loss 1 or more electrons
free radical- unpaired electrons= reactive
radioisotopes- unstable= releases radiation
Define pH, acid, base and buffer
pH- measure of acidity and alkalinity
acid- donates hydrogen pH<7
base accepts hydrogen, donates hydroxide pH>7
buffer- solution that resist change
List thee types of carbohydrates and function
Monosaccharides- glucose (immediate source of energy)
disaccharides- sucrose (energy source)
polysaccharides- starch (energy storage)
What is an example of positive and negative feedback and what does it do?
Positive (amplifies a change)- Child birth
Negative (counteracts a change)- regulate body temp
What are serous membranes and why are they important?
Name the three
thin layer that covers organs
provides lubrication
1. Pericardium (surrounds heart)
2. Pleura (surrounds lungs)
3. Peritoneum (covers abdominal organs)
Explain how electrons occupy shells and their contribution to an atoms stability.
Energy
kinetic, potential, exergonic, endergonic
Potential- stores energy
Exergonic- releases energy
Enderfonic- requires energy
Importance of macromolecule(3) and example
Lipids- store energy (triglycerides)
Carbs- energy source (glucose)
Proteins- transport(hemoglobin), signaling (hormones), and structure (collagen)
