A is for Aorta!

Aorta is the largest artery in
the body, the aorta arises
from the left ventricle of the
heart, goes up (ascends) a
little ways, bends over
(arches), then goes down
(descends) through the
chest and through the
abdomen to where ends by
dividing into two arteries
called the common iliac
arteries that go to the legs.
B is for Blood!

Blood is a specialized
bodily fluid that delivers
necessary substances
to the body's cells, such
as nutrients and
oxygen,and transports
waste products away
from those same cells.
C is for cell!

The cell is the
structural and functional
unit of all known living
organisms.
D is for diaphragm!

A diaphragm is a sheet of
muscle extending across
the bottom of the rib
cage. The diaphragm
separates the thoracic
cavity from the abdominal
cavity and performs an
important function in
respiration.
E is for Esophagus!

Food is passed through
the esophagus by using
the process of peristalsis.
Specifically, it connects
the pharynx, which is the
body cavity that is
common to the digestive
factory and respiratory
system with the stomach,
where the second stage
of digestion is initiated.
F is for the frontal region!

The frontal region
embraces that part of
the face above the
eyes and nose in front
and anterior to the
temples at the sides.
G is for Gallbladder!

The gallbladder is a
hollow organ that sits in
a concavity of the liver
known as the
gallbladder fossa.
H is for hair follicle!

A hair follicle is part of
the skin that grows hair
by packing old cells
together.
I is for Ileum!

The ileum is the
uppermost and largest
bone of the pelvis, and
appears in most
vertebrates including
mammals and birds,
but not bony fish.
J is for Jugular!

The jugular veins are
veins that bring
deoxygenated blood
from the head back to
the heart via the
superior vena cava.
K is for Kidney!

The kidneys are paired
organs of the urinary
system that have many
homeostatic functions,
including regulation of
electrolytes, acid-base
balance, and blood
pressure; excretion of
wastes such as urea and
ammonium; reabsorption of
glucose and amino acids;
and production of hormones
including vitamin D and
erythropoietin.
L is for Lymph Node!

A Lymph Node is an
organ consisting of
many types of cells,
and is a part of the
lymphatic system.
M is for Masseter!

The masseter is a thick,
somewhat quadrilateral
muscle, consisting of
two portions, superficial
and deep.
N is for Nasal cavity!

The nasal cavity is a
large air-filled space
above and behind the
nose in the middle of
the face.
O is for occipital artery!

The occipital artery
arises opposite the
facial artery, its path is
below the posterior
belly of dynastic to the
occipital region.
P is for Parietal Lobe!

The parietal lobe
integrates sensory
information from
different modalities,
particularly determining
spatial sense and
navigation.
Q is for Quadriceps!

A Quad is a large
muscle group that
includes the four
prevailing muscles on
the front of the thigh.
R is for Receptor!

a receptor is a protein
molecule, embedded in
either the plasma
membrane or
cytoplasm of a cell, to
which a mobile
signaling molecule may
attach.
S is for Sacrum!

The sacrum is a large,
triangular bone at the
base of the spine and
at the upper and back
part of the pelvic cavity,
where it is inserted like
a wedge between the
two hip bones.
T is for Thymus!

The thymus is an
organ located in the
upper anterior portion
of the chest cavity just
behind the sternum.
U is for Ulna!

The ulna is a long
bone, prismatic in form,
placed at the medial
side of the forearm,
parallel with the radius.
V is for Ventrical!

In the heart, a
ventricle is a heart
chamber which collects
blood from an atrium
(another heart chamber
that is smaller than a
ventricle) and pumps it
out of the heart.
W is for Water!

75 % of the body is
made of water. It needs
it to survive.
X is for X- Chromosome!

The X chromosome is
one of the two sexdetermining
chromosomes in many
animal species,
including mammals (the
other is the Y
chromosome).
Y is for Y- Chromosome!

The Y chromosome is
the sex-determining
chromosome in most
mammals, including
humans.
Z is for Zygomatic Bone!

The zygomatic bone
(cheekbone, malar
bone) is a paired bone
of the human skull.
