Introduction
The branch of anatomy that studies structural changes of an organism from fertilization to maturity.
What is Developmental Anatomy?
Another name for 'intercellular material'.
What is Matrix?
This structure is made up of the manubrium, body, and xiphoid process.
What is the sternum?
The type of exhalation used when someone is sitting and reading a book.
What is Passive Exhalation?
Quiet breathing, sustained voicing, and speech.
What are the three types of exhalation?
The branch of physiology that looks at functions through experiments carried out in a lab environment.
What is Experimental Physiology?
This tissue's functions are to transmit information from: One neuron to another/a neuron to a muscle/ sensory receptors (like skin) to neural structures.
What is Nervous Tissue?
Another name for ribs 8-10
What are 'False Ribs'?
The diaphragm, external intercostal muscles, and the interchondral portion of the internal intercostal muscles can be grouped together under this category.
What are the primary muscles of inspiration?
This lung capacity decreases with age.
What is Vital Capacity?
A vertical cut, parallel to the midline, that divides a body into a right half and a left half.
What is the Parasagittal Plane?
Bone and Cartilage are 2 types of this structural tissue
What is Special Connective Tissue?
Sends neural information to the diaphragm and tells it to contract.
What is the Phrenic Nerve?
This muscle, found in the back, elevates ribs 2-5 to facilitate inhalation.
What is the Serratus posterior-superior?
These muscles are activated in Sustained Voicing.
What are the inhalatory muscles and the exhalatory muscles?
These protein substances carry out the functions of the nucleus.
What are organelles?
This is a connective tissue that is loose & thin and it forms a bed for the skin and mucous membranes.
What is Areolar Tissue?
These 2 bones are part of the Pectoral Girdle.
What are the Clavicle and Scapula?
Muscles in the neck that help us inhale (4).
What are the Sterncleidomastoid, Scalenes, Trapezius, and Levator scapulae muscles?
The amount of air that remains in the lungs and airways after a passive exhalation.
What is Functional Residual Capacity?
These (5) things determine a living cell.
What is growth, reproduction, irritability, metabolism, and spontaneous movement? (*Acronym 'GRIMS' if it helps anyone :))
A dense white network of fibers, found in certain joints and acts as a cushion and shock absorber and allows for smooth gliding.
What is Fibrous Cartilage?
The three directions in which our thoractic cavity expands during inhalation.
What is laterally, anteriorly, and vertically?
This structure provides attachment for the abdominal muscles.
What is the abdominal aponeurosis?
The four types of lung volume.
What is Tidal Volume, Inspiratory Reserve Volume, Expiratory Reserve Volume, and Residual Volume.
