Chapter 22-26 Body Organization and Structure
Body Organization • Tissue – a group of similar cells working together • Organ – 2 or more tissues working together • Organ System – … • Homeostasis – the maintenance of a stable internal environment
Tissue Types 1) Epithelial Tissue – covers and protects underlying tissues - Skin and lining of organs 2) Nervous Tissue – sends electrical signals - Nerves and sensory organs 3) Muscle Tissue – made of cells that can contract and relax to produce movement - muscles and some organs 4) Connective Tissue – joins, supports, protects, insulates, nourishes and cushions organs. It keeps organs from falling apart.
Humans Have 12 Major Organ Systems • Endocrine System • Respiratory System • Excretory System • Immune System • Reproductive System • - Male • - Female • Integumentary System • Muscular System • Skeletal System • Cardiovascular System • Nervous System • Lymphatic System • Digestive System
Integumentary System • Skin, hair, and nails • Protects underlying tissues Skin - Water-proof – keeps water in or out and foreign particles out • Has nerve endings for senses • Regulates body temperature with sweat glands (evaporation causes cooling). Sweat also removes some wastes
Skin Color • Genetically determined • Melanin – skin pigment • Absorbs harmful radiation reducing DNA damage
Skin layers • Epidermis – epithelial tissue • Mostly dead cells filled with the protein keratin • outer portion of skin • Dermis – mostly connective tissue • lies below the epidermis with a lot of the protein collagen • Within the Skin • Blood Vessels 4) hair follicles • Nerves and Receptors 5) oil glands • Muscle fibers attached to hairs 6) sweat glands
Hair and Nails • Hair - Can protect skin from UV radiation • Melanin gives it its color • In most mammals it can assist in body temperature regulation by standing the hair up and creating a blanket effect • Nails – protect toes and fingertips • Grow from a nail bed
Abnormalities • Wounds – heal via clotting, immune system and new regeneration or scar tissue • Cancer – damaged genetic material results in abnormal growth of cells and tissues. Basal Cell Carcinoma Keratosis (mole) Squamous cell Carcinoma Melanoma [
keloid Neurofibromatosis Skin tag
Muscular System • Move bones – by contracting and relaxing • Maintain posture – continuously active • Squeeze and pump – assist the circulatory system
3 types of muscles • Smooth – digestive system – moves food and waste through the system via peristalsis. Uses predominantly involuntary muscles. • found within the "walls” of hollow organs; such as blood vessels, bladders, uteri. gastrointestinal tracts • Cardiac – found only in the heart – self excitatory • Skeletal – attached to the bones for movement
How would you characterize this muscle? The nuclei are centrally located, there are no striations, and the musclefibers do not branch. Another good clue that this is smooth muscle is that when smooth muscle contracts, the nuclei take on a corkscrew appearance.
How would you characterize this muscle? The nuclei are centrally located, striations are present, and there is branching of the muscle fibers. Several intercalated discs are indicated by the white arrow heads.
How would you characterize this muscle? The nuclei are peripheral, striations are present, and there is no branching of the muscle fibers. Even when you cannot visualize striations, the peripherally placed nuclei allow you to differentiate skeletal muscle from both cardiac and smooth muscle.
Muscle Definitions • Voluntary – under conscious control • Involuntary – work irregardless of thought • Tendons – strands of connective tissue located at the ends of muscle. Attach the muscle to the bone • Flexor – bend a part of the body • Extensor – straighten a part of the body • Muscle tone – a baseline contraction that a muscle maintains even during relaxation * Many muscles work in pairs (contraction & relaxation)
Exercise • Resistance (weights, bands, gravity, etc.) – increase the size and strength of a muscle • Isometric – contraction without movement • Isotonic – contraction creates movement of a unchanging weight (barbell) • Isokinetic – contraction creates movement of a changing weight (nautilus machine) • Aerobic (running, swimming, cycling, etc) – improves the stamina of a muscle particularly the heart. • Defined as a sustained raising of the heart rate
Growth • Muscles grow in length in response to a stretch. • Muscles grow in bulk in response to a need.
Injury • Muscle strain • Ruptured tendon • Overstretching or overuse • Overuse can be a singular event or a repetitive activity • Inflammation
Treatment • Ice or heat? • Immobilization or mobilization? R – rest I – Ice C – Compression E - Elevation
What’s wrong with these Pictures?
Steroids • Anabolic Steroids – powerful chemicals that resemble the male hormone testosterone. Damages: heart, liver, kidneys, testes in men, labido, hirsuitism in women, emotional instability. • It also happens to be cheating
Skeletal System • Bones, cartilage and ligaments • The bones in your skeleton are alive
The Knee Joint
What’s in a bone? • Compact bone • Spongy bone – not really “spongy” – actually provides most of the strength of the bone via trabeculation • Compact bone – the hard, solid outer surface • Marrow – inside the bone – stores fat and makes new red blood cells
Cartilage lines the surface of a joint and is the flexible material found in the ears and tip of the nose • Joint • Sliding-vertebra • Ball and socket-shoulder, hip • Hinge- elbow, knee, jaw • Ligaments – connect bones to bones • Growth plates – cartilage surfaces which allow bones to grow in length. These close by age 15 in girls and 18 in boys
Levers and lifting • How do levers work? • How do you increase the effectiveness of a lever • What is the safest way to lift?
Cardiovascular system teaching aides • Why do we need blood? Why do we need oxygen? • Discuss women’s increased need for iron d/t menses • WBC demo – 2 volunteers – 1 is a pathogen and 1 is a macrophage. I am the WBC and I bump into cells of my own and recognize them but when I bump into a pathogen I make antibodies (Piece of blue tape) which attaches to pathogen and all its clones. Macrophage (24 hour buffet) only eats things that are marked with antibodies. • Use same demo to explain why can’t get chicken pox twice. Also explain how modifying a virus allows us to create a vaccine. And how an antibiotic works. • Platelets – discuss hemophilia • Heart - have demo heart available. Squeezing it makes no noise. Noise is created when the vavles slap shut. Like slapping hands together. • Fill balloon with water and put in hand to simulate heart pumping blood
CardiovascularSystem • AKA Circulatory System • Heart pumps blood through all the blood vessels supplying nutrients and removing wastes • Heart, arteries, veins, capillaries
Blood • An adult human body contains approximately 5 liters of blood • Plasma – the liquid part of the blood (water, minerals, nutrients, sugars, proteins, etc.) • Solids – RBCs, WBCs, Platelets
Red Blood Cells • Red blood cells (RBCs) – transport oxygen and carbon dioxide • Hemoglobin – the protein in blood that carries the oxygen • Hemoglobin contains iron (FE++) • RBCs are made in the bone marrow • RBCs lose all their organelles including their nucleus before entering the bloodstream thus they cannot divide and they can live only about 4 months
White Blood Cells • Fight pathogens (foreign invaders in the body) • WBCs release antibodies – mark pathogens for elimination • Macrophage – engulfs foreign objects via endocytosis • Made in bone marrow
Platelets • Fragments of cells • Live 5-10 days • Form plugs when there is a cut and release chemicals that react with proteins in the blood to form a net of clotting fibers (Scab)
Heart • Muscular organ • Located in the center of your chest behind the lungs • Size of your fist • Pumps blood through the body • Human heart has 4 chambers (left and right atria [upper level chambers] and left and right ventricles [lower level chambers]) • Valves – close after the expulsion of blood to prevent back flow • Lub-dub is the valves closing
Blood flow in the heart • Deoxygenated blood is brought to the right atrium via the Vena Cava. • This is then pumped into the right ventricle • From the right ventricle the deoxygenated blood is pumped into the blood vessels of the lungs where oxygen perfuses into the blood • The now oxygenated blood reenters the heart going into the left atrium. • It is then pumped into the left ventricle. • Finally it is pumped out of the left ventricle into the body via the aorta
Circulation • From the body into the Vena Cava • From the Vena Cava in the heart’s right atrium • Right ventricle • Pulmonary artery • To the lung • From the lung into the pulmonary vein • Into the left atrium • Left ventricle • Pumped into the aorta and out to the body • http://www.mydr.com.au/default.asp?Article=3178 http://library.med.utah.edu/kw/pharm/hyper_heart1.html
Blood Vessels • 3 types • Arteries – carry blood away from the heart. Arteries have thick muscular walls • Capillaries – the smallest blood vessels. Usually only one cell thick. Allow nutrients, oxygen and other substances to diffuse through • Veins – the veins transport the blood from the capillaries back to the heart. Veins have valves. The contraction of skeletal muscles helps to move the blood through the veins
What is Blood Pressure? • Definition – the force exerted by blood on the walls of a blood vessel. • 120/80 systolic/diastolic • Systolic is the pressure when the ventricles contract • Diastolic is the pressure when the ventricles relax. • What’s the problem with high or low blood pressure? Hypertension is a dangerous condition that may lead to heart attack, stroke or kidney failure
Exercise and Blood Flow • Exercise means increased need for energy hence increased need for oxygen thus the heart must beat faster (and you must breathe faster) • Also blood is shunted away from internal organs towards the large muscles. How does exercise help the heart?
Blood Type • Type A – has A antigens, and B antibodies • Type B – has B antigens, A antibodies • Type AB – has A and B antigens, have no antibodies to A or B • Type O – has no antigens, have both A and B antibodies Who is the universal donor? Who is the universal recipient?
Cardiovascular Diseases • Effect heart, blood vessels and/or the blood. • Atherosclerosis - #1 cause of death in the USA -blood vessels become narrower due to fatty (cholesterol) buildup until they are blocked. -If the blood vessels that supply oxygen to the heart mussel are blocked the effected area of heart muscle will die (AKA Heart Attack) • Hypertension (high blood pressure) – blood vessels become weak and heart is overworked • Stroke – when a blood vessel in the brain fails, bursts or becomes clogged (dissection, aneurysm, and embolism) • DVT- deep vein thrombosis
