Organizational Approaches There are seven different organizational approaches to the human body. It’s imperative to understand how the human body works and complex systems. The seven organizational approaches are body cavities, body planes and direction, anatomy and physiology, quadrants and regions, medical specialty, microscopic-to-macroscopic, and body systems. Besides the importance of just understanding the human body, each can be used when applying knowledge to practical use in the healthcare industry

In this assignment I am going to be outlining all the gross structures of the main body systems and I would also be saying what the system is made out of with a diagram. Main body system • Skeletal System • Muscular System • Nervous system • Respiratory system • Digestive System • Male Reproductive System • Female Reproductive system • Cardiovascular system • Urinary system • Endocrine system 1. Skeletal system The skeletal system is muscle that is connected to the skeletal

as well as exploring the human body and gathering information about the human body. Each ones of these methods is a way that helps produce different ways of organizing information about the body and each of these methods produce different information. Each of these approaches are a way of describing the body. The organizational approaches are body planes and body directions, body cavities, quadrants and regions, anatomy and physiology, microscopic and macroscopic, body systems, and medical specialties

Pathogenicity and Cellular Structure Rebecca Abell Unit 2 Assignment 1 Pathogenicity and Cellular Structure When a human gets sick have you ever thought about how that occurs on a cellular level? Our body is made up with many different types of microorganisms and one of them is called bacteria. There are good bacteria and bad bacteria. When the bad bacterium multiplies with in the human body it causes what is known as bacterial infections. Although a bacterium is a microorganism it also

2011). The three sections of the brain can be subdivided into five main structures. The forebrain is where the two main structures reside; this includes the telencephalon and diencephalon which are located within the central nervous system. The midbrain is where the mesencephalon is located along with the hindbrain; the forebrain has the two final structures which are metencephalon and myelencephalon these main structures reside within the central nervous system of the brain (Pinel, 2011). The

words, describe how the human skeleton supports the human body. The human skeleton is the framework of the human body. It supports the softer tissues, provides points of attachment for most skeletal muscles and protects many vital organs. It also maintains the body’s’ shape. The skeleton is made up of bones that can be categorised according to one of five functions that they perform; • Shape and support; The skeleton provides the shape and support that gives the body its shape. As well as providing

The seven organizational approaches to studying the human body are body planes and body directions, body cavities, quadrants and regions, anatomy and physiology, microscopic to macroscopic, body systems and medical specializes. The body planes and body direction is the division of the body in to sections from front to back, right and left, and top and bottom. These sections are called the midsagittal plane, the coronal plane, and the transverse plane. This approach is used when studying organs and
