Body Structure and OrganizationThe body is organized from its smallest element, the cell, to the collection of systems.
Cells
Tissues
Organs
Systems
Entire Body

Cells The cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room") is the basic
structural, functional, and biological unit of all known living organisms. Cells are the smallest unit of life that
can replicate independently, and are often called the "building blocks of life". The study of cells is called cell biology.
Structural and functional unit of an organism; the smallest structure capable of performing all the functions
necessary for life.
Vary in size, shape, and function.
Need nutrients, water, and oxygen to live and function.

There are two types of cells, eukaryotes, which contain a nucleus, and prokaryotes, which do not.
Prokaryotic cells are usually single-celled organisms, while eukaryotic cells can be either single-celled or part of multicellular
organisms.
The distinction between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is considered to be the most important distinction among groups of organisms.
Plants, animals, fungi, slime moulds, protozoa, and algae are all eukaryotic. These cells are about fifteen times wider than a typical
prokaryote and can be as much as a thousand times greater in volume.
Cells
![Page 6: Body Structure Medical Terminology – Lecture 3 Dr. Alberta Paul 26 February, 2015 liesbethcelebi@yahoo.com](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e115503460f94afc92d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The main distinguishing feature of eukaryotes as compared to prokaryotes is compartmentalization:
the presence of membrane-bound compartments in which specific metabolic activities take place.
Most important among these is a cell nucleus, a membrane-delineated compartment that houses the eukaryotic cell's DNA. This
nucleus gives the eukaryote its name, which means "true nucleus
Other differences in cellular structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes include the presence of mitochondria and chloroplasts, the cell wall, and the structure of chromosomal DNA in eukaryotes.

TissuesGroups of similar cells combined to
perform a common function are called tissues.
Several types of Tissues (see next slide)
•Connective tissue•Epithelial tissue•Muscle tissue•Nervous Tissue

Tissues Nervous tissue consists of neurons, which are the cells that conduct signals, and supporting neuroglial cells such as
microglial cells, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes.
Neuron - Nerve cell that characteristically has three parts:
dendrites, cell body, and axon.
Nerve - Bundle of nerve fibers outside the central nervous system.
Neuroglial Cell - One of several types of cells found in nervous tissue that supports, protects, and nourishes
neurons.

Directional Terms, Planes and Regions Part 2
For examination purposes, patients are either lying face up (supine) or face down (prone).
![Page 40: Body Structure Medical Terminology – Lecture 3 Dr. Alberta Paul 26 February, 2015 liesbethcelebi@yahoo.com](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062518/56649e115503460f94afc92d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Planes of the Body•Frontal divides the body into
anterior and posterior positions.
•Sagittal is the lateral position.
•Medial or midsagittal divides the body into right and left
halves.
•Transverse divides the body into upper and lower sections.
