Write a brief answer to these questions in
your notebook.
Try to answer the questions even if you are
not sure.
What is the difference between anatomy and
physiology?

Chapter Objectives





Describe the levels of structural organization that
compose the human body.
Briefly explain how body systems relate to each
other.
Define the life processes of the human body.
Define homeostasis and describe its importance in
health and disease.
Describe several planes that may be passed
through the human body and explain how sections
are made.

How Body Systems Work Together
Ex:
The Integumentary system (skin, hair, and
nails) is involved in the production of
vitamin D, which the body needs in order to
use calcium properly. The calcium is used
for the growth and development of bones.
Life Processes
IV. Processes Essential to All Life
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
F.
G.
Metabolism
Responsiveness
Movement
Growth
Differentiation
Reproduction
Homeostasis
Warm Up #2


How are organs, cells, and tissues related?
How is differentiation different from growth?
Homeostasis
V. Homeostasis
A. The condition in which the body’s internal
environment remains within certain physiological
limits
B. May be disturbed by any stimulus that creates
an imbalance in the internal environment
C. Related to health and disease
Feedback Systems
VI. Feedback system
A. A cycle of events in which information about the
status of body conditions is continually
monitored and fed back to a central control
region.
B. Parts of feedback system:
1.
2.
3.
Receptor
Control center
Effector
Feedback Systems
C. Types of feedback
1.
Negative Feedback—reverses a change
a.
b.
2.
Works towards homeostasis
Ex: BP, temperature, glucose levels
Positive Feedback—reinforces a change
a.
b.
Works away from homeostasis
Ex: Child birth and lactation
