Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Anatomy is the study of the internal and external structure of the body. Anatomy is the study or knowledge of the structure and location of the organs of the organism while physiology is the knowledge of how those organs function in the organism. In addition, anatomy also aims to study the functioning and structuring of organs and other parts of the human body.

Answer to Problem 1DYKB

Correct Answer: (b) surface anatomy.

Explanation of Solution

Explanation/justification for the correct answer:

Option (b) Surface anatomy

Surface anatomy is the study of the structure of an organism externally or superficially. They relate to the internal organ with respect to the external body structure.

The explanation for the incorrect answer:  

Option (a) Regional anatomy

As the name suggests, regional anatomy is studying a specific region of the body that is under-diagnosis. If a patient is under trauma, then the part that is affected because of the trauma will be studied and diagnosed.

Option (b) Pathologic anatomy

When there is a change in a region of the body due to disease the study of the anatomy is called pathologic anatomy. It occurs after the body is affected.

Option (d) Comparative anatomy

The comparison of the anatomy of the different organisms is called comparative. It can be superficial or it can be the internal anatomy of the body of the organisms.

E. Bar Graph Use the same technique to upload the completed image. We will use a different type of graph to derive additional information from the CO2 data (Fig A1.6.2) 1. Calculate the average rate of increase in COz concentration per year for the time intervals 1959-1969, 1969- 1979, etc. and write the results in the spaces provided. The value for 1959-1969 is provided for you as an example. 2. Plot the results as a bar graph. The 1959-1969 is plotted for you. 3.
