Human Body Orientation

CHAPTER 1

Anatomy & Physiology Structure serves function Examples:

Bone Lung

Multi-tasking systems

Levels of Organization Chemical

Elements Molecules Macromolecules Cells Tissues

Levels of Organization Organs Organ systems

Organism

Positive & Negative Feedback Three elements

Sensor Control center Effectors

Negative feedback loop Stimulus Sensor Control center Example: Temperature Regulation

Positive feedback Not really a loop Feed-forward Example

Blood Clotting. Labor and Delivery

Homeostatic Imbalance Aging

Body control systems become less efficient

Diseases of aging? What systems are affected?

– Basic Biochemistry

CHAPTER 2

Terminology Matter

Mass Weight C,H,O,N make up 96% of body mass.

Building blocks of elements Atoms

protons neutrons electrons
