Exploring HumanStructure and Function

Unit 9

Structure Fits Function in theHuman Body

• Look at a structure...it gives you clues as toits function.

Anatomy & Physiology

• The study of the structure of anorganism and its parts is called anatomy.

• Physiology is the study of a structure’ sfunction.

There are 4 types of tissues.- Epithelial- Connective- Nervous- Muscle

Epithelial Tissue

• Sheets of closely pocked cells.• Cover entire surface of body.• Form the lining of your internal organs.

• Function to protect the tissues andorgans they cover.

Bone Structure

• Bone cells are surrounded by a materialcalled bone matrix.

• Flexible fibers are made of protein.- Allows bone to flex a little.

• Hard minerals are phosphate andcalcium.- Allows bone to withstand force.

• Contains marrow, a special tissue thatstores fat or makes new blood cells.

Art I cu kt ions

Skeletal bisorders

• Arthritis• Osteoporosis

The Muscular System

Muscle Anatomy

• Muscles are made up of several musclecells, called muscle fibers, running in thesame direction.

• Muscles are attached to the skeleton bytendons.

Muscle Physiology

• Muscles can only pull - not push.• Have to work in opposing pairs.• When one muscle contracts, the other

must relax.

The Nervous System

Nervous System Anatomy• Neurons make up the nerves which make up

your nervous system.- Cell body- bendrite- Axon

Electrical signals travel through these carrying theimpulse.

• Neurons are connected to each other by aspace called the synapse.- The signal is carried across the synapse by the

release of chemicals that travel across the gap.

Impu’se Path

• Stimulus—Sensory receptor—*sensoryneuron—interneurons---motorneuron—effector---reflexA stimulus is something that causes areaction.

• Sensory receptors are special cells thatreceive info from the environment.

• Sensory neurons receive the message fromthe receptor and send it to the brain andspinal cord.

Nerve Pathway Continued

• Tnterneurons found in the spinal cordand brain connect sensory neurons tomotor neurons.

• Motor neurons transmit the signal fromthe brain and spinal cord to muscle cellsor glands in the body.

• The muscle cell or gland stimulated isthe effector.

• What the stimulation message isdetermines the reflex.
