CHAPTER 1
BODY ORIENTATION AND
DIRECTION
Important Figures and Tables
Page 3: Table 1.2
Page 4: Figure 1.3
Page 5: Figure 1.4
Page 7: Figure 1.6
Things to know for the quizzes
1.Know & identify anterior and posterior body
landmarks.
2.Know body orientation and direction. Human
vs. four-legged animal
3.Know how to correctly use anatomical
terminology
4.All terms on Need to Know sheet
5.Review Sheet Exercise questions
Anatomical Position
• Reference point for
anatomical directions
• Head looking straight
ahead
• Palms pointing forward
• Feet Pointing Forward,
Shoulder-Width Apart
CHAPTER 3
THE MICROSCOPE
Important Figures
Page 28: Figure 3.1
Things to know for the quizzes
1.Know & identify parts of the microscope.
2.Know how to properly handle and use a
microscope.
3.Know magnifications for objective and ocular
lenses
4.Know how to calculate TOTAL MAGNIFICATION
(TM) and change in Field Diameter
5.Need to Know Sheet terms
6.Review Sheet Exercises
Calculations
• Total Magnification (TM) =
ocular * objective
– Ocular is always 10
– Objective is 4 (scanning), 10, 40
or 100 (oil immersion)
Field A;
objective = 4x
2mm
• Field DiameterB = (TMA *
DiamA)/TMB
– [(10x*4x)*2mm]/(10x100x)
– DiamA is always measured
– Trying to estimate size of the
object
– With increasing mag, field size
decreases and object appears to
increase
Field B;
objective = 100x
CHAPTER 4
THE CELL:
Anatomy & Division
Important Figures and Tables
Page 42: Table 4.1
Page 43: Figure 4.3
Pages 46 & 47: Figure 4.4
Histology Atlas on CD
Things to know for the quizzes
1.Know & identify cell organelles and know their
basic functions (general eukaryotic or animal
cell).
2.Know the basic anatomy of a cell.
3. Know & Identify stages of mitosis and basic
events in each stage.
