1. Human Anatomy and Physiology I
Chapter 1
Definitions - Terminology
Organization of the Body
Homeostasis
Instructor: Mary Holman
2. Anatomy
The study of the form and structure of an
organism and the relationships of its parts
Physiology
The study of the function of the living
organism and its parts
7. Levels of Organization
• Subatomic Particles – electrons, protons, and neutrons
• Atom – hydrogen atom, lithium atom, etc.
• Molecule – water molecule, glucose molecule, etc.
• Macromolecule – protein molecule, DNA molecule, etc.
• Organelle – mitochondrion, Golgi apparatus, nucleus, etc.
• Cell – muscle cell, nerve cell, etc.
• Tissue – epithelia, connective, muscle and nerve
• Organ – skin, femur, heart, kidney, etc.
• Organ System – skeletal system, digestive system, etc.
• Organism – the human
8. The Eleven Organ Systems
of the Human Body
• Integumentary
• Muscular
• Skeletal
• Nervous
• Endocrine
• Cardiovascular
• Lymphatic
• Respiratory
• Digestive
• Urinary
• Reproductive

24. Homeostasis
The state of equilibrium in which
the internal environment of the
body remains in the normal range
25. Homeostasis
Maintenance of a stable internal environment
• Homeostatic Control Mechanisms – monitor aspects of the
internal environment and correct as needed. Variations are
brought to within acceptable limits. There are three (3) parts:
• Receptor - provides information about the stimuli
• Control Center - tells what a particular value should be
(called the set point)
• Effector - elicits responses that change conditions in the
internal environment
26. Homeostatic Control
Mechanisms
Stimulus
(Change that occurs
in internal environment.)
Response
(Change is corrected.)
Receptors Effectors
(muscles or glands)
Control center
(set point)
(Change is compared
to the set point.)
27. • There are two (2) types:
• Negative feedback mechanisms
• Positive feedback mechanisms
Homeostatic Control
Mechanisms
28. Negative feedback summary:
• Most common type of feedback loop. Reduces the actions of
the effectors
• Corrects toward the set point
• Causes opposite of bodily disruption to occur, i.e. the
‘negative’
• Limits chaos in the body by creating stability
• Prevents sudden, severe changes in the body
• Examples: body temperature, blood pressure & glucose
regulation

32. Units of Length Comparison
Metric to English
•1 meter (m) is slightly longer
than 1 yard
•1 centimeter (cm) is 0.39 inches
about the width of a small finger
•1 millimeter (mm) 1/10 of a cm
about the thickness of a dime
33. 1 cubic centimeter
= 1 milliliter
These Metric Terms are Interchangeable
