ADVANCED BIOLOGYCHAPTER 1 NOTES
ANATOMY• Study of the structure & shape of body
parts and their relationship to one another
QuickTime™ and a decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
PHYSIOLOGY• Study of the function of the body or
body parts - how they work
QuickTime™ and a decompressor

• Anatomy & Physiology are closely related to each other. A slight change in anatomy can have a significant effect on physiology
• Examples: sickle cell anemia, rotated pelvis, elongated palate in bulldogs
LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION• Chemical - first level of organization
(non-living)
• Examples: atoms & molecules
QuickTime™ and a decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION• Cellular - structural & functional unit of
all living things
• Examples: skin, bone, red blood cells

LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION• Tissue - composed of cells with a
common origin, appearance & function• Examples: muscle, nervous,
connective

LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION• Organ - a group of tissues organized
into a specific structure with a specific function
• Examples: heart, brain, liver, lungs

LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION• Organ system - groups of organs
working together to perform specialized functions
• Examples: cardiovascular, integumentary, reproductive

LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION• Organism - last and most complex level,
composed of individuals capable of carrying out life functions
• Examples: person, dog, bacteria, ameoba, plant

LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION
• EVERY LEVEL RELIES ON THE SMOOTH WORKINGS OF THE LEVEL PRECEDING IT, A MALFUNCTION AT ANY LEVEL HAS SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES TO THE LEVELS BUILT UPON IT
• EXAMPLES: cancerous cells can spread, electrolyte imbalances can stop the heart

• Integumentary•Forms the external
body covering
•Protects deeper tissue from injury
•Synthesizes vitamin D
•Location of cutaneous nerve receptors

body organs
•Provides muscle attachment for movement
•Site of blood cell formation
•Stores mineralsFigure 1.2b

•Nervous
•Fast-acting control system
•Responds to internal and external change
•Activates muscles and glands

•Endocrine•Secretes regulatory
hormones
•Growth
•Reproduction
•Metabolism

Organ System OverviewOrgan System Overview
•Cardiovascular•Transports materials
in body via blood pumped by heart
•Oxygen
•Carbon dioxide
•Nutrients
•WastesFigure 1.2f
Organ System OverviewOrgan System Overview
• Lymphatic•Returns fluids to blood
vessels
•Disposes of debris
•Involved in immunity

Organ System OverviewOrgan System Overview
•Respiratory•Keeps blood
supplied with oxygen
•Removes carbon dioxide

Organ System OverviewOrgan System Overview
•Digestive
•Breaks down food
•Allows for nutrient absorption into blood
•Eliminates indigestible material

Organ System OverviewOrgan System Overview
•Urinary•Eliminates nitrogenous
wastes
•Maintains acid – base balance
•Regulation of materials
•Water
•ElectrolytesFigure 1.2j

Necessary Life FunctionsNecessary Life Functions
•Maintain Boundaries•Movement•Locomotion•Movement of substances
•Responsiveness•Ability to sense changes and react
•Digestion•Break-down and delivery of nutrients
Necessary Life FunctionsNecessary Life Functions
•Metabolism – chemical reactions within the body•Production of energy
•Making body structures
•Excretion•Elimination of waste from metabolic reactions
Necessary Life FunctionsNecessary Life Functions
•Reproduction•Production of future generation
•Growth•Increasing of cell size and number
Survival NeedsSurvival Needs
•Nutrients•Chemicals for energy and cell building
•Includes carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, vitamins, and minerals
•Oxygen•Required for chemical reactions
Survival NeedsSurvival Needs
•Water•60–80% of body weight
•Provides for metabolic reaction
•Stable body temperature
•Atmospheric pressure must be appropriate
HomeostasisHomeostasis
•Maintenance of a stable internal environment = a dynamic state of equilibrium
•Homeostasis must be maintained for normal body functioning and to sustain life
•Homeostatic imbalance – a disturbance in homeostasis resulting in disease
