When studying the human body, there are seven organizational approaches. Each approach studies the body in a different yet unique way and is used in the health care field. The approaches consist of; body planes and directions, body cavities, quadrants and regions, anatomy and physiology, microscopic and macroscopic, body systems and medical specialties.
There are three body planes which use different directions: coronal, sagittal, and transverse planes. Coronal plane slices the body from head to toe giving a front and back view. There are two directions that are related with it; anterior posterior, moving from the outside of the body through the anterior part then the posterior section, and posterior anterior, which is its reverse.

For instance, in the left lower quadrant is the lower part of the kidney, part of the colon, and the left ovary for women. This type of diagram would help with position the organs. In the health field, physicians refer to this during an internal exam.
According to "Degreedirectory.org" (1999), anatomy studies the structure of organs and cells. Since cells are a microscopic size the best way to study, using this approach is with a microscope, which is, a tool used to examine cells. Physiology is the study of the function of organ and cells. Organs are of a macroscopic size that means it can be seen with the naked eye. These approaches can be used in many ways in health care. An orthopedic would study muscles and tendons or an immunologist would study blood cells using a microscope.
The human body is made up of several different types of systems. This means that each system is made up of a few organs, which synchronize with one another and work as a unit. Organs are unable to perform without the help of the other organs in their unit. All of the organs support one another to perform their functions.
The gastrointestinal system breaks down the foods we eat into protein, vitamins, fats and carbohydrates, which is used for energy, growth and repair. The organs in the respiratory system are the nose, trachea and lungs. These organs help bring air into the body and eliminate the

The respiratory system is made up of organs and tissues that help you breathe. The main parts of this system are the lungs, the trachea, the diaphragm, alveoli and nasal cavity. The respiratory system starts with the mouth and the nose, where air is brought in, then passes through the larynx and the trachea into the chest cavity. http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/ health-topics/topics/hlw/system The main organs of the respiratory system are lungs, which carry out this exchange of gases as we breathe. The
The body has different organs that work together and they make up a system such as the
The three systems in our body that work together are cardiovascular, respiratory and digestive systems which supply energy to the cells of the body. I will be describing their role of energy in the body system; also I am going to explain the physiology of the three named body systems in relation to energy metabolism.
have a variety of systems due to the complexity of the species' organism. The human body
Anatomy and Physiology is the study of the human body. Anatomy is the study of the internal and external structure of body parts. Physiology is the study of the function of those body parts.
The digestive system are organs converting food into energy and basic nutrients to feed the entire body.
The Respiratory system is an integrated system of organs involved in the intake and exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between an organism and the environment. Your Respiratory system is made up of the organs in your body that help you breathe. The Respiratory system is the system of the body that deals with breathing. The trachea is a wind pipe. The trachea is a pipe shaped by rings of cartillage. A Bronchi are two tubes that carry air into the lungs. The Respiratory system consistes of many different organs. The organs are the lungs, trachea, bronchi, alveoli, diaphragm, nose, mouth, and pharynx. In the Respiratory system the right lung is larger and has more lobes that the left lung becuase the heart is normally located on the left side, and takes up space where the lung would had been. The functions of the Respiratory system is to supply the blood with oxygen in order for the blood to deliver oxygen to all parts of the body. The Respiratory system is also used for the of exchange gases. The importance of the Respiratory system is that it allows for the exchange of gases; meaning carbon dioxide and oxygen. These gas exchanges occur in the alveoli's and the capillaries. This gas exchange of gases is the Respiratory system's means of getting oxygen to the blood. The goal of breathing is to
None of the body systems can work without muscles and your muscles can't work without your other body systems so that means that all of your body systems need each other to work and make your body function correctly.
V2 and V3 both contain discontinuous hemifield maps, which are divided along the horizontal meridian. This discontinuity creates two quarterfield maps in V2 and V3, each of which has one long edge representing the horizontal meridian and a second representing the vertical meridian. The dorsal V1/V2 boundary represents the lower vertical meridian; the angle maps continues toward the horizontal meridian that defines the dorsal V2/V3 boundary, where it then reverses back to the lower vertical meridian. There is a corresponding reversal at the horizontal representation separating V2/V3 on the ventral surface. The concentric arrangement of V1-V3 splits the V2 and V3 maps at the horizontal midline into dorsal and ventral subdivisions – referred to as V2d, V2v and similarly for V3 which are V3d and V3v. The reversals in the direction of change of the angle maps distinguish V1-V3; the eccentricity maps are aligned with
- Systemic anatomy- Body structure is studied system by system. When studying the cardiovascular system, you would examine the heart and the blood vessels of the entire body.

One can interpret these lines as indicating the direction that a compass needle will point if placed at that position.
The digestive and excretory systems help the body with the wonderful task of food. The digestive system is composed of the stomach, mouth, liver, pancreas, and the large and small intestine. It digests food and provides the
