Overview of Anatomy and Physiology
• Anatomy: The study of structure
• Subdivisions:
• Gross or macroscopic (e.g., regional, surface,
and systemic anatomy)
• Microscopic (e.g., cytology and histology)
• Developmental (e.g., embryology)

Overview of Anatomy and Physiology
• Essential tools for the study of anatomy:
• Mastery of anatomical terminology
• Observation
• Manipulation
• Palpation
• Auscultation

Overview of Anatomy and Physiology
• Physiology: The study of function at many
levels
• Subdivisions are based on organ systems
(e.g., renal or cardiovascular physiology)

Overview of Anatomy and Physiology
• Essential tools for the study of physiology:
• Ability to focus at many levels (from systemic
to cellular and molecular)
• Basic physical principles (e.g., electrical
currents, pressure, and movement)
• Basic chemical principles

Principle of Complementarity
• Anatomy and physiology are inseparable.
• Function always reflects structure
• What a structure can do depends on its
specific form

Levels of Structural Organization
• Chemical: atoms and molecules (Chapter 2)
• Cellular: cells and their organelles (Chapter 3)
• Tissue: groups of similar cells (Chapter 4)
• Organ: contains two or more types of tissues
• Organ system: organs that work closely
together
• Organismal: all organ systems

(l) Female Reproductive System
(k) Male Reproductive System
Overall function is production of offspring. Testes produce sperm and male sex
hormone, and male ducts and glands aid in delivery of sperm to the female
reproductive tract. Ovaries produce eggs and female sex hormones. The remaining
female structures serve as sites for fertilization and development of the fetus.
Mammary glands of female breasts produce milk to nourish the newborn.

Monitors the environment
•
Responds to stimuli (changes in controlled variables)

stimulus

• Regulation of body temperature (a nervous
mechanism)
• Regulation of blood volume by ADH (an
endocrine mechanism)

Negative Feedback: Regulation of Blood
Volume by ADH
• Receptors sense decreased blood volume
• Control center in hypothalamus stimulates
pituitary gland to release antidiuretic hormone
(ADH)
• ADH causes the kidneys (effectors) to return
more water to the blood
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
Positive Feedback
• The response enhances or exaggerates the
original stimulus
• May exhibit a cascade or amplifying effect
• Usually controls infrequent events e.g.:
• Enhancement of labor contractions by oxytocin
(Chapter 28)
• Platelet plug formation and blood clotting

Homeostatic Imbalance
• Disturbance of homeostasis
• Increases risk of disease
• Contributes to changes associated with aging
• May allow destructive positive feedback
mechanisms to take over (e.g., heart failure)
