Basic concepts and terms of anatomy Like any science, anatomy certain terms that facilitate the description of a certain topic without resorting to repetitive explanations of some situation or location in the body are used. These terms define a situation or bodily town unambiguous and must be known in advance to understand what is described when treating a subject. Then we will relate and define the most important concepts and basic terms. Homeostasis When you think about the fact that the human body consists of billions of cells in almost constant activity and surprisingly very few of them deviate from the proper functioning can get an idea of how magnificent is the machinery of the body. Working together in this huge set of cells is always be a certain balance that keeps relatively stable internal conditions of the organism but changing external conditions. To define that term stabilization capacity of homeostasis is used. Although the word literally means "unalterable" homeostasis is not actually a representation of a strictly static and rather refers to a dynamic state of equilibrium or balance where bodily conditions can vary but always in a narrow "permissible" range situation. …show more content…
Maintain homeostasis of the body is more complex than it may seem at first glance, almost all organs play a role in the constancy of internal environment conditions. For example, keep a constant level of vital nutrients in blood and blood pressure should be monitored and constantly adjusted so that the blood to reach all tissues. At the same time the blood should not allow debris to accumulate in the tissues; this also should be involved in the regulation accurate body temperature. Basic control mechanism of homeostasis To maintain each of the numerous factors or variables that must be stabilized in the body there are basically three interdependent components in regulating
