Document Summary

Introduction to: systemic and functional anatomy, basic cells and tissues. Henry gray wrote the book greys anatomy, took it on him to illustrate the human body in a book (1858) the book came out. Tissues add color to the organ: different tissues have differ function, 4 different tissues make down the human body, only about 200 different types of cells make up the body fairly simple for a human being. Tissues: example a muscle tissue (causes movement) Regional anatomy (traditional) vs, systemic anatomy: regional, usually comes from a cat or frog. This is studying a certain area, and identifying all of the structures. There are 11 systems, we will cover 5. Anatomical language: also called anatomical nomenclature. Anatomical position: creates a compass of the body, it is when you stand straight and palms are facing out (forward, from the human midline, we look symmetrical. The heart is not in the center of the body, only one pancreas.
