Laboratory Manual for Anatomy and Physiology. Custom edition for Miami Dade College-Kendall Campus. BSC2085L by Michael G. Wood.
Fundamentals of anatomy & physiology by martini, 98h edition, chapters # 1 and 3
Lab Manual:Exercise # 1
Competency 1: Introductory concepts and terminology in Human Anatomy
• Upon successful completion of this laboratory, the students should be able to apply the basic concepts and terminology of Human Anatomy by:
• – Demonstrating the anatomical position.– Listing the directional terminology for the human body.– Identifying the human anatomical regions.– Recognizing the different body cavities.– Competency 2:– Identifying and describing the different parts of human cells
and their functions.

Introduction.
• Anatomy is considered the oldest medical science.• There are Egyptian drawings from 1600 BCE illustrating basic
knowledge about blood vessels.• The word anatomy has Greek roots as well as physiology. • Anatomy means “ a cutting open”

Anatomy and Physiology
• Anatomy is the study of internal and external structures of the body and the physical relationship among them.
• Physiology is the study of how living organisms perform their functions.
04/19/23 5
Anatomy and Physiology are closely integrated
• Anatomical information provides clues about functions, and physiological mechanisms can be explained only in terms of the underlying anatomy.
04/19/23 6
Medical terminology
• It is the special language that involves the use of word roots, prefixes, suffixes and combine them to create terms related to the body in health and disease.

ANATOMICAL DIRECTIONS• DIRECTIONAL TERMS
• SUPERIOR, INFERIOR• CRANIAL (CEPHALIC), CAUDAL• PROXIMAL, DISTAL• POSTERIOR (DORSAL), ANTERIOR
(VENTRAL)• MEDIAL, LATERAL• RIGTH, LEFT• SUPERFICIAL, DEEP
• IMP- LEFT & RIGTH REFER TO THE LEFT & RIGHT OF THE SUBJECT, NOT OF THE OBSERVER
• Anatomical position• Standing up, looking forward
• Hands at sides with palms facing forward.
• Feet slightly apart
• SUPINE: lying down face up in anatomical position.
• PRONE: lying down face down in anatomical position.

Directional terms
• Anterior: the front; before
• Ventral: the belly (anterior)
• Posterior or dorsal: the back; behind
• Cranial or cephalic: the head
• Superior: above; toward the head
• Caudal: the tail; at a lower level
• Inferior: below; at a lower level
04/19/23 13
Directional terms• Medial: towards the body’s longitudinal
axis; towards the midsagittal plane.
• Lateral: Away from the bodiy’s longitudinal axis; away from the midsagittal plane.
• Proximal: toward an attached plane.
• Distal: Away from an attached base.
• Superficial: At, near, or relative close to the body surface.
• Deep: farther from the body surface.
04/19/23 14
Sectional planes• Transverse or horizontal: it separates
superior and inferior portions of the body (cross section).
• Sagittal: it separates right and left portions.
• Midsagittal: it divides the body in equal right and left.
• Parasagittal: It divides the body in unequal right and left.
• Frontal or coronal: it divides the body in anterior and posterior.

Abdominopelvic quadrants and regions.
• Abdominopelvic quadrants: They are formed by a pair of imaginary perpendicular lines that intersect at the umbilicus (navel).They are 4 regions.
They are preferred by Clinicians.
• Abdominopelvic regions: there are 9 abdominopelvic regions. They are preferred by Anatomists
