Description

Connected along their length by an interosseous membrane, two bones, the tibia and fibula, form the skeleton of the leg. Phalanges. 14 phalanges form the toes; each toe has three phalanges, except the great toe, which has two. Organs: A self-contained group of tissues that serves at least one bodily function to maintain normal bodily functioning and the homeostasis, or balance, of the body. Calcaneus and Talus. Body weight is carried mostly by the two largest tarsals, the calcaneus, or heel bone, and the talus (ankle), which lies between the tibia and the calcaneus. External acoustic meatus. The external acoustic meatus is a canal that leads to the eardrum and middle ear; it is the route by which sound enters the ear.

Cytoplasm makes up the bulk of a living cell. The major components of the cytoplasm are things like calcium, for example, the organelles which are described immediately bellow and the cytosol which makes up the bulk of a living cell. Organelles are found in the cytoplasm of the cell.

Active transport: The movement of molecules across membranes that requires the use of cellular energy to perform this transport

Mitosis: Cell division where the nucleus of the cell replicates itself into two identical copies of itselfThe cranium encloses and protects the fragile brain tissue and is composed of eight large flat bones.

Sternal angle. The sternal angle results where the manubrium and the body meet at a slight angle to each other, so that a transverse ridge is formed at the level of the second ribs. Positive chemotaxis. In addition, WBCs can locate areas of tissue damage and infection in the body by responding to certain chemicals that diffuse from the damaged cells; this capability is called positive chemotaxis. Spinous process. Single projection arising from the posterior aspect of the vertebral arch (actually the fused laminate). False ribs. False ribs, the next five pairs, either attach indirectly to the sternum or are not attached to the sternum at all. Perforating canals. The communication pathway from the outside of the bone to its interior (and the central canals) is completed by perforating ( Volkmann’s) canals, which run into the compact bone at right angles to the shaft.All content is based around the person-centred nursing framework and a fictional family is used throughout to demonstrate how the biology applies to real people, helping students to apply the A&P knowledge directly to real-life nursing situations. Deltoid tuberosity. In the midpoint of the shaft is a roughened area called the deltoid tuberosity, where the large, fleshy deltoid muscle of the shoulder attaches. Canaliculi. Tiny canals, canaliculi, radiate outward from the central canals to all lacunae; the canaliculi form a transportation system that connects all the bone cells to the nutrient supply through the hard bone matrix. Diseases and treatments– what is the meaning of ventricular hypertrophy, a syncope or a systolic murmur? How are they related? What are the possible outcomes of an acute kidney injury? How do the antihypertensive medications that you administered today work? Physiology is only part of the answer, the other being anatomy.

Inferior nasal conchae. The interior nasal conchae are thin, curved bones projecting medially from the lateral walls of the nasal cavity. Lost RBCs. Lost cells are replaced more or less continuously by the division of hemocytoblasts in the red bone marrow. Trochlear notch. On its proximal end are the coronoid process and the posterior olecranon process, which are separated by the trochlear notch; together, these two processes grip the trochlea of the humerus in a pliers-like joint.Mandible. The mandible, or lower jaw, is the largest and strongest bone of the face; it joins the temporal bones on each side of the face, forming the only freely movable joints in the skull; the horizontal part of the mandible ( the body) forms the chin; two upright bars of bone ( the rami) extend from the body to connect the mandible to the temporal bone. Secondary curvatures. The curvatures in the cervical and lumbar regions are referred to as secondary curvatures because they develop some time after birth. Skeletal muscle, which is also referred to striated muscle, is muscle that enables voluntary bodily movement. This tissue is composed of long muscle fibers and it is a part of all voluntary muscular movements including those used for range of motion exercises and those that serve as sphincters which control urination and defecation through the ends of the urinary and digestive systems, respectively.
