Anatomy Review

You can use both sides of a 3x5 notecard. It must be handwritten!!

Look over your old test. See what questions were asked on each topic. These would be good things to know!!

• Relationship between Anatomy and Physiology

• Levels of structural organization
• Body Systems we covered (major functions and major organs)
• Functions of Human Life
• Requirements for human Life

• Metabolism (catabolism and anabolism)
• Anatomical position, supine and prone
• Regional terms
• Directional terms
