Unit 1/Chapter 1: Introduction to Human Anatomy and Physiology (p. 1-73)
OBJECTIVES
1. Define the terms anatomy and physiology, and explain their relationship using an example
of a human structure with its corresponding function.
2. List, in order from least to most complex, the levels of structural organization, discuss the
relationship between the levels, and name an example at each level.
Write an introductory sentence that lists the levels from least to most complex.
Starting with the least complex level, complete the following:
name the level
define the term
provide an example
discuss how the next level is achieved.
3. Name and define the ten life processes that distinguish living from non-living things.
4. Specify the five environmental needs required for life.
5. Define the term homeostasis, and name the manner in which homeostatic mechanisms are
regulated. Then provide an example of a homeostatic mechanism in humans, and explain it
fully, by providing a diagram followed by a complete essay explanation.
6. Designate the five major human body cavities and name the organs within each on a human
diagram.
7. Describe the anatomical importance of the diaphragm muscle.
8. Distinguish between visceral and parietal serous membranes, and differentiate between
pericardial, pleural, and peritoneal varieties.
9. List the 11 organ systems of the human organism, name the major organs within each, and
give a general function for each system.
10. Demonstrate what is meant by "anatomical position".
11. Define various directional terms (i.e. superior, inferior, etc.), and compare different body
parts using these terms (i.e. the elbow is proximal to the wrist).

accomplished.
14. Describe the nine regions of the abdominal area and the four quadrants of the abdominal
area and list the major organs found within each.
