Overview of Anatomy and Physiology
• AnatomyAnatomy – the study of the structure of body parts and their relationships to one another– Gross or macroscopic– Microscopic– Developmental
• PhysiologyPhysiology – the study of the function of the body’s structural machinery
Gross Anatomy
• RegionalRegional – all structures in one part of the body (such as the abdomen or leg)
• SystemicSystemic – gross anatomy of the body studied by system
• SurfaceSurface – study of internal structures as they relate to the overlying skin
Microscopic Anatomy
• CytologyCytology – study of the cell
• HistologyHistology – study of tissues
Developmental Anatomy
• Traces structural changes throughout life
• EmbryologyEmbryology – study of developmental changes of the body before birth
Specialized Branches of Anatomy
• Pathological anatomyPathological anatomy – study of structural changes caused by disease
• Radiographic anatomyRadiographic anatomy – study of internal structures visualized by X ray
• Molecular biologyMolecular biology – study of anatomical structures at a sub-cellular level
Physiology
• Considers the operation of specific Considers the operation of specific organ systemsorgan systems– Renal – kidney function– Neurophysiology – workings of the nervous
system– Cardiovascular – operation of the heart and
blood vessels
• Focuses on the functions of the body, Focuses on the functions of the body, often at the cellular or molecular leveloften at the cellular or molecular level
Physiology
• Understanding physiology also requires a knowledge of physics, which explains electrical currents, blood pressure, and the way muscle uses bone for movement
Principle of Complementarity
• Function always reflects structure
• What a structure can do depends on its specific form

Homeostasis
• HomeostasisHomeostasis is the ability to maintain a relatively stable internal environment in an ever-changing outside world
• The internal environment of the body is in a dynamic state of equilibriuma dynamic state of equilibrium
• Chemical, thermal, and neural factors interact to maintain homeostasis
Homeostatic Imbalance
• Disturbance of homeostasis or the Disturbance of homeostasis or the body’s normal equilibriumbody’s normal equilibrium
• Overwhelming of negative feedback mechanisms allowing destructive positive feedback mechanisms to take over
Homeostatic Imbalance
• Can lead to disease.
• Diabetes is a homeostatic imbalance.
Positive and negative feedback
• Biological systems contain many types of regulatory circuits, among which positive and negative feedbacks. Positive and negative don't imply consequences of the feedback have positive or negative final effect. The negative feedback loop tends to slow down a process, while the positive feedback loop tends to accelerate it.
An example of a simple negative feedback loop
What if you get cold?
Positive Feedback Mechanisms
Homeostatic systems utilizing positive feedback exhibit two primary characteristics:
1. Time limitation – Processes in the body that must be completed within a constrained time frame are usually modified by positive feedback.
2. Intensification of stress – During a positive feedback process, the initial imbalance or stress is intensified rather than reduced as it is in negative feedback.
Typical Positive Feedback Process

The birth of the child will bring this process to a close. Other examples of positive feedback regulation occur during milk letdown and blood clotting.
Positive feedback “mini-loops” are built into pathway to speed up production of chemicals needed to form the clot. Entire sequence of clotting is a negative feedback pathway:

Body Cavities• Dorsal cavityDorsal cavity protects the nervous system,
and is divided into two subdivisions
– Cranial cavity is within the skull and encases the brain
– Vertebral cavity runs within the vertebral column and encases the spinal cord
• Ventral cavityVentral cavity houses the internal organs (viscera), and is divided into two subdivisions: - Thoracic and Abdominopelvic cavities
Body CavitiesFigure 1.9b
Body Cavities
• Thoracic cavityThoracic cavity is subdivided into pleural cavities, the mediastinum, and the pericardial cavity
– Pleural cavities – each houses a lung
– Mediastinum – contains the pericardial cavity, and surrounds the remaining thoracic organs
– Pericardial cavity – encloses the heart
Body Cavities• The abdominopelvic cavity is separated The abdominopelvic cavity is separated
from the superior thoracic cavity by the from the superior thoracic cavity by the dome-shaped diaphragmdome-shaped diaphragm
• It is composed of two subdivisions
– Abdominal cavity – contains the stomach, intestines, spleen, liver, and other organs
– Pelvic cavity – lies within the pelvis and contains the bladder, reproductive organs, and rectum

predisposing factor for injuries
Moments of Force (Torque)
• Effect of a force that tends to cause rotation about an axis
• M = F ·d (Nm)– If F and d are
• Force through axis
Moments of Force (Torque)
• Force components– Rotation– Stabilizing or
destabilizing component
Moments of Force (Torque)
• Net Joint Moment– Sum of the moments
acting about an axis
• Human: represent the muscular activity at a joint– Concentric action– Eccentric action– Isometric
Classifying Forces• Internal Force: acts within the object or system
whose motion is being investigated– action / reaction forces both act on different
parts of the system • tensile-internal pulling forces when the structure is under
tension• compressive- internal pushing (squeezing) forces act on the
ends of an internal structure
– do not accelerate the body• Orientate segments, maintain structural integrity
Classifying ForcesExternal Force: acts on object as a result of
interaction with the environment surrounding itnon-contact - occur even if objects are not
touching each othergravity, magnetic
contact - occur between objects in contact fluid (air & water resistance)reaction forces with another body (ground, implement) vertical (normal) reaction force
acts perpendicular to bodies in contactshear reaction force
acts parallel to surfaces in contact (friction)
Torque and length of lever arms
• In humans, contracting muscle applies an eccentric force (not to be confused with eccentric contraction) to bone upon which it attaches & causes the bone to rotate about an axis at the joint
• Amount of torque is determined by multiplying amount of force (force magnitude) by force arm
Mechanical loads on the Human Body
• The skeletal system is subjected to a variety of different forces so that bone is loaded in various directions. These are loads produced by gravity, weight bearing, muscle, and external forces
• Compression• Tension• Shear • Mechanical Stress
A compressive force presses the ends of the bones togetherand is produced by muscles, weight bearing, gravity, or some external loading down the length of the bone
Tensile force is a pulling forcethat creates tension in the object/body-tends to lengthen and narrow-source is usually muscle
Shear Forces
• A 3rd category of force• While compressive and
tensile forces act along the longitudinal axis of the bone or other body, shear forces act parallel or tangent to the surface
• Tend to cause one portion to slide or displace
This position places a large amount of stress on the ligaments and tendons that prevent the femur from sliding off the tibial plateau
Squat or Knee Bend
Shear Force
Stress and Strain
• Another way of evaluating the behavior of bone or any other material when subjected to loading is to measure the stress, or load per cross-sectional area, or the strain or deformation with respect to the original length of the material.
63
Stress = Load per cross sectional area .-resulting force distribution as a result of an external force
Strain = deformation with respect to the original length
Normal Strain – change in length
Shear Strain – change in angle
Angle Length In length
What Does The Research Show?• % Load Compression On L3 During the Upright Standing, Lying Down, and Sitting.
• Compression Increases More with Spinal Flexion, and Increases Still Further with a Slouched Sitting Position.
Types of stress
• Tensile stress-tissue separation
• Compressive- pressed together
• Shearing-tangential force
TISSUE LOADS
• Compressionis when an external force tends to squeeze the molecules of a material together.
• Tension is when the load acts to stretch or pull apart the material.
• Shear is a right-angle loading acting in opposite directions.
• A trainer creates a shearing load across athletic tape with scissor blades or their fingers when they tear the tape.
• When many forces are acting on a body they can combine to create combined loads called torsion and bending In bending one side of the material is loaded in compression while the other side experiences tensile loading. When a person is in single support in walking (essentially a one-legged chair), the femur experiences bending loading. The medial aspect of the femur is in compression while the lateral aspect is in tension.

DataData
•Results of the experiment
•May be quantitative (numbers) or qualitative
Theory defined
• An explanation based on many observations during repeated experiments that is valid only if it is consistent with observations, makes predictions that can be tested, and is the simplest explanation.
• A logical, time tested explanation for events that occur in nature.
Beginnings
• Aristotle (384 BCE-322 BCE or BC)• ancient Greek philosopher
Aristotle
• Aristotle, more than any other thinker, determined the orientation and the content of Western intellectual history. He was the author of a philosophical and scientific system that through the centuries became the support and vehicle for both medieval Christian and Islamic scholastic thought: until the end of the 17th century, Western culture was Aristotelian. And, even after the intellectual revolutions of centuries to follow, Aristotelian concepts and ideas remained embedded in Western thinking.
Claudius Galen – The Early Years
• Born in Greece (Turkey) 131AD
• Trained in Alexandria– 152 – 157
• Worked at Asclepion– 157 - 162
• Went to Rome to make his Fortune– 162
• Gladiator School– 162 - 166
• Showman– Page 43
Why is Galen Important
• Galen was not famous for having new groundbreaking ideas. Rather, he was famous for improving upon and communicating existing Greek ideas– Four Humours– Anatomy– Physiology– Design– Writings
An Artist and a Scientist
• Because Leonardo the artist sought for the ideal face, he skillfully sliced open the skull to reveal the brain cavity and see what lay beneath. Combining art and science he analyzed the proportions of the head.
An Artistic and Scientific Search for the True Picture of Man and his
Universe
• "Leonardo da Vinci was like a man who awoke too early in the darkness, while the others were all still asleep"
-Sigmund Freud
Andreas Vesalius
By:
January 2009
Early Life
• Born December 31st 1514 in Brussels, Belgium.
• Vesalius showed an early interest in anatomy, and came from a family that had studied medicines for generations before him.
Galen vs. Vesalius
• During his dissections, Vesalius was able to show without question that there were vital errors in Galen’s studies of the human body.
• Vesalius concluded that this was due to the fact that in the ancient days of Galen, human dissections were not permitted.
• This lead Galen to do all of his studies on animals and from these studies make theories as to how the human body functioned. Even after this discovery, Vesalius credited Galen with most of discoveries of the human body.
Vesalius’ Magnum Opus
• In order to attract more attention to the science that he had devoted his life, Vesalius gave 5 years of his life working on the “De Humani Corporis Fabrica”.
• This was an amazingly in depth description of his studies on the human body.
• It included detailed sketches, descriptions, as well as instructions on how to perform a dissection of the human body.
• This book was labeled the first textbook on anatomy, and is considered one of the most important books in medical history.
Who Was William Harvey?
• Born 1578 (England)
• Died 1657
• Specialism: Circulation of blood
Before Harvey
• People believed in Galen’s theory that blood was produced in the liver. Galen believed that blood was burnt up by the body. Other writers had questioned this theory but they had struggled to prove it wrong.
After Harvey
• Harvey proved that blood flows around the body. He stated that blood was carried away from the heart by arteries and returns to the heart through veins.
• Harvey proved that the heart is a pump that recirculates the blood and that blood wasn’t ‘burnt up’.
Harvey’s Methods
• Harvey was very scientific in his methods. These included:
• Dissecting cold blooded animals (e.g. reptiles) to observe the movement of muscle around the heart.
• Dissected humans to gain a knowledge of the heart.
• Used iron rods to prove that blood was pumped through veins in one direction.
• He accurately calculated the amount of blood in the body.
Robert Hooke
The English Father of Microscopy
Inventor• Modern Air Pump• Flying Machines• Conical Pendulum• Helioscope• Reflecting Telescope• Wheel Barometer• Spring Control• Universal Joint• Compound Microscope
Cells
• Coined the term “cell” in a biological context.
• Believed that “cells” only existed in plants since he had only observed them in plant material.
• Why do you think Hooke only saw “cells” in plants? What structure was he seeing?
History of the Microscope
• In the late 1600’s, Anton Van Leeuwenhoek became the first person to make and use a real microscope.
History of the Microscope
• Anton Van Leeuwenhoek achieved even greater success than his peers by making superior lenses. He polished & ground up 550 lenses to make a lens tube with a magnification of 270x – others were lucky to achieve 50x with their microscopes!
History of the Microscope
• Anton Van Leeuwenhoek was the first to see bacteria, yeast, and life found in a drop of pond water. He found extraordinary things using his microscope throughout his lifetime.
• Here’s a look at a virtual drop of pond water:
