BI 121le - ch1 - ST

This document provides an overview of the key topics covered in an introductory human anatomy and physiology course. It begins by defining anatomy and physiology and their subdisciplines. It then discusses the anatomical position and planes used to describe body locations. Next, it reviews the different levels of biological organization from subcellular particles to organ systems. Finally, it identifies the characteristics required to maintain life and describes the basic concepts of homeostasis and feedback control mechanisms.
