...before, but they're just covered with tissue. So in this instance, we're calling them meatuses. And the job of those meatuses is to almost act as though they're speed bumps. So as soon as you sucked the air in through our nostrils, the air will get caught around the meatuses. It slows the air flow down. And when it slowed the air flow down, it will allow time for the nasal cavity to filter and humidify the incoming air. Because the air in our environment is much drier than the inside of our body. So when we breathe air in, if we didn't humidify a little bit, it would potentially dry out our nasal passages. So as soon as we breathe the air in, the nasal cavity will moisten it up, filter it, and then send it down to the deeper parts of the respiratory tract. So again, those meatuses act as sped bumps. They're going to kick up turbulence in the air to sallow us to filter and humidify better. And we know that the air we take in is humidified because if breathed into your hand. And next we have the hard and soft palate, which you should still be familiar with from API. The hard palate if what we call the roof of our mouth. And the palate here is made up of the maxillary bone and the palatine bone. And then hanging off the hard palate, we have the soft palate, which is made up of cartilage. That's why it's called soft because it's much more flexible. Hard palate, maxillary bone and palatine bone. And then soft...

...Let’s talk anatomy Anatomy is the science of body structures and the relationships among them. It is all around us, it is basically us. The human anatomy deals with basically all the parts of humans, dealing with molecules to bones to the way we function, but that can also get misinterpreted for Physiology which is the study of body functions and how the body parts work, which in this case it is something different. Anatomy and Physiology are two concepts that are related to each other, as stated before anatomy is the science of body structures and the relationship among them, while Physiology is the study of body functions and how body parts work together. Now, with all of that being said Anatomy differs from physiology in many ways, the study of anatomy usually focuses on the shape, size, and where they are usually located at. In my perspective anatomy is more like dissection of the body, you can easily cut up the body and with your very own eyes see what the body is, or in more scientific forms using a microscope for a more detailed view. A person can easily see what they are encountering on a body and what system is connected to what. In physiology its rather more vigorous mostly involving different types of properties (chemical, physical or electrical) that make the body function. Beginning from the process of how our heart rate is regulated to more difficult systems involving different visual perceptions. Physiology is usually involved with the work of living...

...Anatomy and Physiology 1-1 Explain the importance of studying anatomy and physiology. Studying anatomy and physiology is important because knowing how normal physiology helps you recognize when something goes wrong with the body. 1-2 Define anatomy and physiology, describe the origins of anatomical and physiological terms, and explain the significance of Terminologia Anatomica (International Anatomical Terminology). Anatomy is the study of internal and external body structures. Physiology is the study of how living organisms perform functions. There are four basic building blocks of anatomical and physiological terms. Word roots, prefixes, suffixes, and combining forms. Terminologia Anatomica serves as a worldwide official standard of anatomical vocabulary. So people all over the world can have the same anatomical terms. 1-3 Explain the relationship between anatomy and physiology, and describe various specialties of each discipline. All specific functions are performed by different structures. Meaning the way a body part is made up (anatomy) gives clues on how that body part will function (physiology). Specialties in gross anatomy is surface anatomy, regional anatomy, systemic anatomy, clinical anatomy, and developmental anatomy. Specialties in physiology is cell physiology, organ physiology, systemic physiology and pathological physiology. 1-4 Identify the major levels of organization in organisms, from the simplest to the most complex...

...Phoenix Seven organizational approaches There are seven organizational approaches to studying the human body. The Body planes and body directions, body cavities, quadrants and regions, anatomy and physiology, microscopic, body systems, and medical specialties. Body plans and directions divide the body into many different sections such as, the front and back, the right and left and the top and bottom. The body direction stands for movement towards and away from the planes. This approach may be used in a MRI in a hospital or treatment facility. MRI’s, are used to help create an image of the body slices. This would also help divide the human body into anterior, posterior, superior, and inferior as well as distal and proximal. The body cavities are surrounded by bones and muscles in order to help support and protect the body’s organs, as well as the structure within the body’s cavities. The abdominal cavity is a part of the reproductive system which is also used for giving child birth. Quadrant and regions helps divide the abdominopelvic area in to either four quadrants or nine regions. All health care specialists’ refer to the quadrants during an internal exam. An internal exam could be done to check many things such as the colon, the pelvic, as well as all internal organs. Anatomy and physiology are used to study the structure of the body as well as how the body functions as a whole. The body can be examined as well as studied according to the functions and the structure of the...

...Fetal Pig Dissection: Anatomy and Physiology of Systems Introduction Pigs are from the mammalian clade. They are farming animals that that require the same systems as humans. Pigs and humans share some of the physiological concepts as humans. With them sharing some of the same physiological as humans it allows scientist and individuals to understand the anatomy and physiology of the systems we share. These systems include lymphatic, digestive, respiratory, and the skin system. The two frequently looked at systems are the digestive and skin system. The fetal pig provides the visual aid for the explanation of the anatomy and physiology of both the digestive and skin system. The organ skin is the largest organ on the human body. There are four tissues that make up this organ: epithelial, connective, muscle, and nervous tissues.The epithelial...

...Seven Organizational Approaches Brittany Hasty HCA/220 June 9th, 2015 Debra Schrager Seven Organizational Approaches The healthy human body can be studied in seven different ways. These ways include the following; body planes and cavities, body cavities, quadrants and regions, anatomy and physiology, microscopic and macroscopic, body systems, and medical specialties. In order for the human body to be considered healthy it must have complete physical, mental, and social well-being. The seven different ways involve approaching the body from different angles by dividing or organizing the body. There are three main planes used to study the body: the coronal, sagittal, and the transverse planes. The coronal plane divides the human body vertically into front and back sections. The front section is the anterior or ventral, and the back section is known as the dorsal or posterior. The sagittal plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into right and left sections. There are two directions used when dividing the body in a sagittal plane- lateral and medial. The lateral direction moves from either side of the body toward the body’s midline. The medial direction moves in the opposite direction, from the body’s midline to either side of the body. The transverse plane is a horizontal plane that divides the body into bottom and top sections. The bottom half is known as the inferior section, while the top half is referred to as the superior section. In order for the human body...

...body direction * Body cavities * Quadrants and regions * Anatomy and physiology * Microscopic to macroscopic * Body system * Medical specialties Body planes and body direction are splitting up in the body and divided into sections from top to bottom, from left to right and from front to back. These three groups are called transverse plane, coronal plane, and midsagittal plane. The approach that is used while studying these organs and there functions of specifics regions that’s in the body such as the brain, joint & tendons, and the lungs. The body cavities are the study body cavities and the study of organs in the cavities. This method is used in the study of certain organs in the body and the way diseases can affect different organs in your body. The quadrants and regions are what divided the low torso into four groups and into nine regions that recognize areas were the inner organs are located. This method is a good key point to uses while doing a physical exam of inner organs. Anatomy and physiology studies the body and the way the body works. Also the study of how the cells function in the body. This is a huge approach to uses when conducting a study of the body, cells, and the study of nervous system. Microscopic and Macroscopic are the studies of the tiny parts in the body and how they can form together and make bigger parts. They use this approach when studying the combination that makes organ. Body system is the review of the body’s organs and the way that work...

...molecules that the cells use for a variety of purposes, both functional and structural. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, blood vessels and blood. It's a relatively simple -- though critically important -- body system, in that it operates much like a pump and series of pipes through which water might move. The purpose of the system is to circulate oxygen to your body cells, but also to circulate nutrients. Your blood then returns the waste products -- including carbon dioxide -- of various metabolic reactions to the lungs and to excretory organs, Dr. Laurlaee Sherwood explains in her book "Human Physiology." Anatomy & Physiology - Body Systems Cardiovascular Digestive Endocrine Muscular Neurological Respiratory Skeletal The Cardiovascular System The branches of science that will help you understand the body parts and functions are anatomy and physiology.
