Document Summary
Cellular level: smallest living unit of the body. Tissue level: group of cells and the materials surrounding them that work together on one task. > 4 tissue types: epithelium, muscle, connective, nerve. Organ level: grouping 2 or more tissue types into a recognizable structure with a specific function. Organ system: collection or related organs with a common function. >sometimes an organ is part of more than one system. Standard position: standing upright, facing observer, eyes forward, feet flat on floor, arms at sides, palms forward frontal/coronal plane divides body into anterior and posterior transverse plane divides body into superior and inferior portions inferior= away from head. Sagittal plane divides body or organ into left/right sides. Proximal= near to attachment of limb to trunk. Distal = farther from attachment of limb to trunk lateral = farther from midline. Atoms, molecules, and ions ions are formed by ionization. > an atom that gave up or gained an electron.
