Summary Introduction
To review:
The description of the following organs’ locations, using regional and directional terms:
Esophagus
Brain
Urinary bladder (in a female)
Introduction:
The human is made of many organ systems thatare coordinated such that the human body is in homeostasis. The organs in the organ systems are placed at a particular position that does not change. There are some regional and directional terms, which are used to describe the organs.

Students have asked these similar questions
Identify the following organs on a torso model: • abdominal aorta • adrenal glands (superior surface of kidneys) • kidneys • ureters • urinary bladder
When injecting the head, the term that suggests the relationship to the internal body organs would be:
a. proximal
b. distal
c. visceral
d. periheral
This conceptual exercise is meant to get you thinking not only about organ system function, but also about organ system DYSFUNCTION. For this extra credit assignment, please submit a brief essay (1-2 pages in length) discussing a disease state. Start by describing the way the organ system functions in a normal physiological state. Describe each organ in the system and its function. Next introduce the mechanism of dysfunction in the disease state. Be sure to discuss which organs are malfunctioning and how that affects the other organs in the system. Ie, which other organs have to pick up the slack and how do they accomplish this? Next discuss the impact this has on other organ systems. Ie, how are other organ systems which rely on the malfunctioning system affected and how do they compensate? Finally, discuss current treatment options and weigh their costs and benefits. If there are any, mention preventative measures a healthy individual could take to avoid the disease, if possible.
