  • Anatomy - deals with the structure of organisms
  • Anatomy - "the art of separating the parts of an animal/plant in order ascertain their position, relations, structure, function"
  • Physiology - study of the normal functions and phenomena of living things
  • Physiology - can be investegated at several different levels, from the cellular level through the functioning od discrete organs to the functioning of the whole animal
  • Morphology - study of form and function of how it become an integrated part of an organism, and how that becomes a factor in evolution of new forms
  • Organ system - complex of organs that functions together as a unit
  • Integumentary system - refers to the skin and its derivatives such as scales, hair, feathers, claws, and nails (exoskeleton)
  • Skeletal system - pertains to the inner skeleton (endoskeleton) that provide support, protection, and leverage for movement
  • Muscular system - skeletal muscles that provide movement
  • Digestive system - alimentary canal in the broad sense, including mouth and accessory structures (teeth, tongue, accessory digestive glands)
  • Respiratory system - breathing organs, gills or lungs, and associated structures
  • Hypothalamus - responsible for body temp, hunger, moods, and release of hormones from other glands; also controls shirts and sleep
  • Pituitary - "master gland"; produces a wide variety of different hormones that influence other endocrine glands
  • Testes - produce testosterone and sperm
  • Ovaries - produce estrogen, progeterone, and eggs
  • Exrcetory + Reproductive system = Urogenital system
  • Tympanum - hearing organ as well as the organ of balance and equilibrium
  • Eyes - pair of structures located in the orbit of the skull
  • Organs of the frog

    • Organs of vision - eyes
    • Hearing organ - tympanum
    • Organs of sense - sensory papillae
  • Vagus nerve - innervates stomach, lungs, heart, larynx, esophagus, and muscles of the shoulder
  • Glossopharyngeal nerves - innervates muscle and mucus membrane of the pharynx and tounge
  • Auditory nerves - innervates inner ear
  • Facial nerves - innervates ears, muscle of the lower jaw and throat, skin of the throat, nasal cavities, and the roof of the mouth
  • Abducens nerves - innervates retractor bulbi and external rectus muscle of the eyes
  • Trigeminal nerves - innervates the lips, muscles of the mandible and tongue, and skin of the head

  • Peripheral nervous system
    • Somatic nervous system
    • Autonomic nervous system
  • Somatic nervous system - innervates structure associated with the body wall such as muscle, sense organs and glands
  • Autonomic nervous system - divided into parasympathetic and sympthetic nervous system
  • Spinal cord - carries nerve impulses from all over the body to the brain
  • Spinal cord - controls many of the body's involuntary actions
  • Hindbrain - consists of the cerebellum and medulla oblongata
  • Medula oblongata - exits the foramen magnun and enters the spinal cord. The vertebral column protects the spinal cord
  • Midbrain - distinguished by a pair of optic lobes
  • Forebrain - made up of olfactory lobes, paired cerebral hemispheres, and an unpaired diencenphalon
  • Cranium or brain box - a bony structure that protects the brain
