Feedback Mechanism in Human Body – Feedback Loops The body uses a feedback mechanism, which is a physiological regulatory system to monitor and maintain the body’s physiological activities. These pathways most commonly return the body to a normal internal state (homeostasis). Feedback loops act via nerve pathways or chemicals such as hormones to cause a stimulatory or inhibitory effect on the internal state of the body. Feedback loops are important because based on the outcome; it decides whether it should continue performing a specific function or

organs of human body
Human Body Organs It is considered that have 78 organs are in the human body and these organs work in coordination. Five major organs are vital for survival; these include the heart, brain, kidneys, liver, and lungs. Know here the structural organization of the human body. Human Body Parts Name Lists of human body part names- 1. Oral Cavity 2. Mouth 3. Teeth 4. Tongue 5. Nasal Cavity 6. Palate – divided into two parts a. Hard palate b. Soft palate 6. Salivary gland – three pairs of major salivary glands a. Sublingual
Body Planes And Sections
Anatomical Body Planes and Sections – Mapping the Body A plane is a 2D slice through 3D space means visualizing 3D objects from 2D, which can be thought of as a glass sheet. In anatomical planes, there are different lines used to divide the human body. The primary application of anatomical planes is used in medical imaging techniques such as CT scans, MRI scans, Sonography, PET scans. Know here what human body cavities are in the human body. The anatomical planes can be used to identify, describe
quadrants of abdomen
Quadrants of Abdomen The abdomen is divided into four Quadrants by drawing two lines- a horizontal line and a vertical line are passed through the Umbilicus (navel). Four Quadrants of Abdomen are- 1. Right Upper and Left Upper Quadrants 2. Right Lower and Left Lower Quadrants Abdominopelvic regions and quadrants help clinicians determine, which organs and tissues, and sites are involved in a disease based on which regions experience pain. Check out here what is the anatomical position of the human body and directional terms? Pelvic Cavity The pelvic cavity is a funnel-shaped space
regions of abdomen
Regions of Abdomen Lines An abdominopelvic cavity or abdominal region may be divided into nine regions to describe the location of organs, easily by drawing four imaginary lines by two vertical lines and two horizontal lines. 1. Two Vertical Lines Left and Right Midclavicular lines These are drawn downward from the centers of the collar bones (midpoint of the clavicle) just medial to the nipples. 2. Two Horizontal Lines a. Subcostal line This line is drawn at the lower edge of the rib cage. b. Transtubercular line This
abdominal quadrants regions and organs
Four Quadrants and Nine Abdominal Regions The abdominopelvic cavity can be subdivided into nine regions and four quadrants. The purpose of the division of the abdomen in nine regions and four quadrants is to describe regional anatomy in the abdomen, location of organ, site of abdominopelvic pain, tumor, or other abnormality which organ and tissues and site are involved in a disease or diseased based pain. Know how many body cavities are there? Quadrants of Abdominal and Organs The abdominal area houses many different organs it is divided into
Regions and Quadrants of Abdomen
Regions and Quadrants of Abdomen The abdominopelvic cavity is a body cavity consisting oftheabdominal cavity and the pelvic cavity. The abdominal cavity contains digestive organs, kidneys, and the pelvic cavity contains reproductive organs and organs of excretion. The abdominopelvic cavity is subdivided into nine regions or areas and four quadrants. Check out what are organs in 9 abdominal regions? The purpose of the nine region abdominal divisions is to describe regional anatomy in the abdomen, categorize abdominal organs by their location and function, or used them for anatomical
Human Body Cavities
Cavities of the Body and Their Subdivisions Body cavities are confined (limited) space within the body that contains internal organs or viscera. A body cavity is a fluid-filled space inside the body that houses organs, holds the organs, and protects internal organs. The cavities refer to any space or compartment or “hollow space”. The cavity of the body is differentiated or separated by membranes and other structures bones, muscles, or ligaments. Know here the anatomical position of the body and directional terms. Human Body Cavities The two main body cavities
Anatomical Position and Directional Terms
Anatomical Terminology- Proximal, Distal, Dorsal, Ventral What is an Anatomical position? The body is standing erect (upright position) facing forward (directly facing the observer), legs are parallel with feet flat on the floor, upper arms placed at the body’s sides with palms, and facing forward. Check out here anatomical planes and sections of the body. Anatomical position is the positioning of the body, standing upright position and facing forward with each arm hanging on either side of the body, and palms facing forward, and head and eyes directed straight ahead,
