Population Served The initial work grew from a need of Tech Prep students enrolled in the Medical Technology programs who were enrolled in Anatomy and Physiology. As the process evolved, the target audience grew to be identified as any student enrolling in Anatomy and Physiology as part of their Science requirements for graduation.
Added: We prepare all students for lifelong learning and adhere to Title VI, Title IX,
ADA and Section 504; thus we do not discriminate in educational programs and employment practices on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, sex or handicap.
Inquiry- Based Laboratory Experiences Inquiry-based instructional strategies focus on delivering content through methodology in
which students learn by investigating answers to complex, authentic questions and in-depth scenarios and teachers serve as resources rather than the provider of information.
The instructors that developed the units contained in this document have attempted to formulate real-world situations in an attempt to make the academic content have meaning for the students.
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study 12
Inquiry-Based instructional techniques may be an instructional strategy that is unfamiliar to the potential classroom teacher. This document alone cannot make the teacher an Inquiry - based classroom practitioner. There are lots of resources on the internet, just google Inquiry-based instruction, or project-based instruction or even problem-based instruction and you will find literally thousands of resources. Below is a very select list of resources that we used to develop and education our curriculum developers:
• www.bie.org Buck Institute for Education
• www.ohiorg.org Ohio Resource Center
• http://www.edutopia.org/teachingmodules/PBL/index.php The George Lucas Educational Foundation

Suggestions for Teachers Purpose: To have students explore homeostasis as a set of regulatory mechanisms and processes within the human body. Age Level: Appropriate for middle school grades 5 to 8.
Process Objectives Students will be able to:
• Design an experiment to investigate the body’s ability to self-regulate
• Carry out an experimental design
• Collect and graph data
• Analyze data and draw conclusions
• Share data and conclusions with their peers
• Revise initial ideas and hypotheses
Content Objectives Students will be able to:
• Understand that the human body must be able to “maintain stable internal conditions while living in a constantly changing external environment.” (NSES, p. 157)
• Understand that “regulation of an organism’s internal environment involves sensing the internal environment and changing physiological activities to keep conditions within the ranges required to survive.” (NSES,p. 157)
• Understand that homeostasis enables the body’s systems, organs, tissues and cells to recover to its normal “set points” for each parameter.
• Understand that homeostasis involves all body systems.
• Understand that the nervous system coordinates the regulation of internal body conditions.

Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT 1: Introduction, Organization, Integumentary System 48
Background Information Homeostasis is the process by which the internal environment of the body is kept relatively stable despite changes in the external environment. Typically, we understand that our body’s ability to regulate temperature is very important. Our body has a normal “set point” for its temperature, which varies slightly from person to person. We often forget that the body regulates its internal environment in many ways. The body senses changes in the environment and responds by making changes in functions. This is a dynamic process that keeps the internal conditions of the body relatively stable. The body can adapt to many changing conditions, but there are limits to these conditions. The body’s cells will not function well if they are too cold or too hot, our heart rates cannot endlessly increase and we cannot lose excessive water without putting our cells, tissues and organs at risk. As a result, reaching or exceeding these limits can be dangerous, so our body tends to function within certain normal ranges. Using temperature as an example, we know that the hypothalamus in the brain can act as a thermostat and control the body’s functioning to regulate temperature to keep us from overheating or getting too cold. The hypothalamus causes changes in the size of blood vessels in the skin, which then has a direct impact on the amount of heat lost or retained by the body. Most systems of the body maintain homeostasis by means of negative feedback mechanisms, which reverse a response back to a normal state. There are many examples of this type of regulation in the body, which involve various body systems. The following activity will help students gain a basic understanding of homeostasis as a regulatory process that is more than just temperature. Additional detailed information about this can be found in many anatomy and physiology texts, including those listed below.
Background and Description of Activities:
• This sequence of activities is designed to help students understand that homeostasis is an active regulatory process involving multiple body systems.
• Most students will readily identify sweating and shivering as ways that the body responds to external temperature changes.
• Middle grade students will intuitively understand that their bodies’ processes will change with exercise, but they often ignore their bodies’ ability to self-regulate and recover to normal conditions.
• This set of activities uses an integrative approach to look at multiple body systems and their role within the homeostatic process.
• The key concepts to emphasize are that the body’s ability to recover from a change in internal body conditions extends beyond temperature regulation and involves all body systems.
• At the conclusion of the activities, students should be able to describe the way exercise effects respiration rate, heart rate, skin temperature, internal body temperature, etc. and the way in which those parameters recover to normal “set points.”
• The depth of the discussion will vary according to prior knowledge and grade level.
• If desired, further experiments may be carried out to answer questions generated during the activities.
Activity Procedures:
Activity 1: Demonstration of changes in respiration rate after jumping jacks This may be done with a single volunteer, a group of 3-4 volunteers or the entire class to collect more data. It is intended to be a qualitative introduction to changes, but you may choose to formally collect and analyze data.
Pre-Activity Questions (May be done individually or as a class) 1. Predict the baseline (initial) breathing rate for the volunteers.
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT 1: Introduction, Organization, Integumentary System 49
2. What do you expect to happen to the volunteer’s breathing rate during jumping jacks? Why? 3. What do you expect to happen during the 5 minutes after the jumping jacks?
Activity 1 Procedures 1. Ask for a volunteer(s) who is/are willing to do jumping jacks or jog in place (or have entire class involved). 2. Instruct students to quietly observe while the volunteer counts respirations for 15 seconds. This is baseline data. Write the number on board and multiply by 4 to get respirations/minute. 3. Ask class to make predictions about respiration rate after 1 minute of exercise. 4. Do jumping jacks for 1 minute (+/- in order to induce an increase in respirations). 5. Count respirations for 15 seconds immediately after exercise. Calculate to respirations/minute. 6. Ask class to make predictions about respiration rate during the next 5 minutes. 7. Briefly discuss predictions while waiting for 3-5 minutes to elapse. 8. After 3-5 minutes, count respirations. Optional: You may choose to graph the volunteer group or class data. Be sure to collect data before, immediately, and shortly after the exercise.
Activity 2: Brainstorm and Discussion Summarize the observations made during the first activity. Brainstorm and discuss observations about the changes in breathing rates from the beginning of the exercise to the end. List as many ideas about changes in body conditions as possible. Accept all responses from students, but emphasize the idea that respirations did ultimately return to normal. Examples of student responses might include changes in skin temperature, internal body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure. Do not give them these examples, but guide them to articulate these ideas. Concept to address: Recovery to normal should be emphasized at this time.
Extending this Activity: Students can utilize terms on the board to create a concept map about changes in internal body conditions. This may also be used as an assessment tool at the conclusion of the lesson.
Activity 3: Inquiry Exploration Students will use jumping jacks to induce a change in body conditions. The goal is to discover the ways in which the body recovers from changes. Their task is to develop and carry out an experimental design. Instruct students to use the Student Activity Sheet to brainstorm ideas and create an experimental design. Each group must focus upon one parameter to test. Ask students to consider other parameters and functions that change during exercise. Students might explore changes in skin temperature, internal body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure. Instruct students to utilize any of the available materials in order to answer and address at least one of the questions listed below.
Activity 3 Questions: 1. What other body systems might undergo a change in conditions (and recovery)? 2. What other body processes change during and after? 3. What other factors may play a role in the body’s response to exercise?
Activity 3 Procedures:
• Assign students to groups of 3 to 4 (you may want to utilize grouping strategies and assign jobs within these groups).
• Instruct students to use the Student Activity Sheet to brainstorm ideas and create an experimental design. Each group must focus upon one parameter to test.
• Students must submit their plan for approval.
• Students will carry out their design.
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT 1: Introduction, Organization, Integumentary System 50
• Students will record and graph data.
• Students will analyze data and complete the Student Activity Sheet
• Students will present their data and conclusions to their peers.
Activity 3 Safety Considerations
• Students should be told to wear sneakers for the day of the activity.
• Students should be reminded about safely doing the exercises in the classroom.
• Students that are with asthma, illness or physical disability should not be required to participate in the physical activity. They may participate as recorder, timer, etc.
Activity 4: Tying It All Together Students will present their findings to the class. After findings are presented, a summary discussion should follow to review the relevant findings and illustrate the main points. The concept of homeostasis should be fully defined and explained at this time. Students should be able to discuss the body’s ability to stay within normal limits and regulate numerous systems at once. Students should be given time to complete assigned assessments.
Ideas for Assessment Students may be asked to:
• Write full lab reports describing their experiments, results and conclusions.

Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT 1: Introduction, Organization, Integumentary System 59
pH of Body Fluids Lab Battery acid, laundry detergent, hand soap … all of these common liquids, and in fact all solutions have a chemical property called pH. pH is a measurement of whether the solution is an acid, a base or neutral. Chemically, pH is an indication of the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. This is important because hydrogen ions are positively charged particles. The charge on the particle can change the way that it reacts with other particles. The charge can even affect the physical forces acting on the molecule which could then change its shape. An important component of biochemistry like a protein reacts because of its shape; changing the shape, changes the way that the protein reacts. The concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution can be expressed in terms of a pH scale. Lower pH (pH of 0 to 6) corresponds to higher hydrogen ion concentration. This is the characteristic of an acid. A substance that reduces the concentration of hydrogen ions and raises the pH (pH of 8 to 14) is called a base. When acids and bases are mixed, they form water and a salt. Water is considered to be neutral, the midpoint of the pH scale (pH of 7). The pHs of common liquids are listed in the table below.
There are a number of easy ways of measuring the pH of a solution. The most common is using a chemically sensitive small paper strip called litmus paper.
Common Liquid pH
Battery acid 0.5
Lemon juice 2.4
Grapefruit juice 3.0
Orange or apple juice 3.5
Tomato juice 4.2

When a piece of blue litmus paper is dripped into an acid, it turns red. When a piece of red litmus paper is dripped into a base, it turns blue. pHydrion paper (pH) is chemically sensitive to react by a color change over the entire pH scale. Materials: red litmus paper, blue litmus paper, pHydrion (pH) paper, common liquids in beakers Instructions: (1) Using litmus paper and pHydrion paper, record the pH of the 5 common liquids found in the table below. Normal body fluids also have the chemical property of pH. The chemical property of the fluid relates to its function.

Enzyme Catalase Lab
Background Information
Liver and other living tissues contain the enzyme catalase. This enzyme breaks down hydrogen peroxide, which is a harmful by-product of the process of cellular respiration if it builds up in concentration in the cells. If we use potato or other tissue containing this enzyme, we can use this to measure the relative influence of varying several different factors on the activity of enzymes in living tissue.
In order to obtain energy and building blocks from food, the digestive system must break down proteins, fats and carbohydrates. In this process, specific enzymes catalyze hydrolysis reactions in which food polymers are broken up into monomers. In this lab, you will perform reactions involved in digestion of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins and observe the results of these reactions.
AP Objective met:
* Measure the effects of changes in temperature, pH, and enzyme concentration on reaction rates of an enzyme catalyzed reaction in a controlled experiment. * Explain how environmental factors affect the rate of enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
INTRODUCTION: What would happen to your cells if they made a poisonous chemical? You might think that they would die. In fact, your cells are always making poisonous chemicals. They do not die because your cells use enzymes to break down these poisonous chemicals into harmless substances. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of reactions that would otherwise happen more slowly. The enzyme is not altered by the reaction. You have hundreds of different enzymes in each of your cells.
Each of these enzymes is responsible for one particular reaction that occurs in the cell. In this lab, you will study an enzyme that is found in the cells of many living tissues. The name of the enzyme is catalase (KAT-uh-LAYSS); it speeds up a reaction which breaks down hydrogen peroxide, a toxic chemical, into 2 harmless substances--water and oxygen.
The reaction is as follows: 2H2O2 ----> 2H2O + O2
This reaction is important to cells because hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is produced as a byproduct of many normal cellular reactions. If the cells did not break down the hydrogen peroxide, they would be poisoned and die. In this lab, you will study the catalase found in liver cells. You will be using chicken or beef liver. It might seem strange to use dead cells to study the function of enzymes. This is possible because when a cell dies, the enzymes remain intact and active for several weeks, as long as the tissue is kept refrigerated.

MATERIALS: 1molar HCl solution (in dropper bottle) 1molar NaOH solution (in dropper bottle) 6 Test tubes and Test tube holder 10-ml Graduated cylinder 40 ml 3% Hydrogen preoxide solution (found in stores) Straight-edged razor blade Scissors and Forceps (tweezers) Thermometer Stirring rod pH paper Fresh liver, chicken meat, Apple, and Potato
PART A - Observe Normal Catalase Reaction
1. Place 2 ml of the 3% hydrogen peroxide solution into a clean test tube. 2. Using forceps and scissors cut a small piece of liver and add it to the test tube. Push it into the hydrogen peroxide with a stirring rod. Observe the bubbles;
What gas is being released? Throughout this investigation you will estimate the rate of the reaction (how rapidly the solution bubbles) on a scale of 0-5 (0=no reaction, 1 =slow, 5 = very fast). Assume that the reaction in step 2 proceeded at a rate of "4"
Recall that a reaction that absorbs heat is endothermic; a reaction that gives off heat is exothermic. Now, feel the temperature of the test tube with your hand. Has it gotten warmer or colder - Is the reaction endothermic or exothermic?
Is Catalase Reusable?
1. Place 2 ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide solution into a clean test tube and add a small piece of liver. What is happening in your test tube? 2. Pour off the liquid into a second test tube. Assuming the reaction is complete. What is this liquid composed of? What do you think would happen if you added more liver to this liquid? Test this and record the reaction rate. Explain your results (what is the liquid composed of?) 3. Add another 2 ml of hydrogen peroxide to the liver remaining in the first test tube. Is catalase reusable?
Part B - What Tissues Contain Catalase
You will now test for the presence of catalase in tissues other than liver. Place 2 ml of hydrogen peroxide in each of 3 clean test tubes and then add each of the three test substances to the tubes.
To the first tube, add a small piece of potato. To the second tube, add a small piece of chicken. To the last tube, add a small piece of apple.
As you add each test substance, record the reaction rate (0-5) for each tube.
Which tissues contained catalase? Do some contain more catalase than others? How can you tell?
HINT: The arrows point out questions that should be
answered on your data table.
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT 1: Introduction, Organization, Integumentary System 66
PART C - What is the Effect of Temperature on Catalase Activity?
1. Put a piece of liver into the bottom of a clean test tube and cover it with a small amount of distilled water. Place this test tube in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes. What will boiling do to an enzyme?
2. Remove the test tube from the hot water bath, allow it to air cool, then pour out the water. Add 2 ml of hydrogen peroxide. CAUTION: Use a test-tube holder when handling the hot test tubes. Record the reaction rate (0-5) in DATA TABLE
3. Put equal quantities of liver into 2 clean test tubes and 1 ml H2O2 into 2 other test tubes. Put one test tube of liver and one of H2O2 into each of the following water baths: ice bath and warm water bath (not boiling).
4. After 3 minutes, pour each tube of H2O2 into the corresponding tube of liver and observe the reaction. Record the reaction rates (0-5) in DATA TABLE
You recorded the reaction rate for room temperature earlier. What is the "optimum" temperature for catalase? (This is the temperature at which the reaction proceeds fastest.) Why did the reaction proceed slowly at 0o C? Why did the reaction not proceed at 100oC?
PART D - What is the Effect of pH on Catalase Activity
1. Add 2 ml hydrogen peroxide to each of 3 clean test tubes. Treat each tube as follows:
Tube 1--add a drop of HCl (acid) at a time until pH 3. Tube 2--add a drop of NaOH (base) at a time until pH 10. Tube 3--adjust the pH to 7 by adding single drops of either 1molar HCl or 1molar NaOH as needed.
CAUTION: Do not let acids or bases contact your skin or clothing. Swirl each test tube after adding each drop and measure the pH of each solution with pH paper. To do this, remove a drop or two of solution from a test tube using a clean glass stirring rod. Rinse your stirring rod and wipe dry before you dip it into each test tube. Place the drop on pH paper. Record the pH of each solution in DATA TABLE

What's Covering You? and Why? Weathersby, Dorothy, Sherwood School, 8010 S. Lafayette Ave., Chicago, IL 60620. 874-7702 Objective The student will be able to describe the four functions of the skin. Apparatus/Materials Needed 1. Microprojector (optional) 5. Model of the skin 9. Toothpicks2. Microscopes (if available) 6. Transparency of the skin 10. Plastic gloves 3. Overhead projector 7. Crayons 11. Paper cups 4. Skin slide 8. Contruction paper 12. Water 13. Pepper Introduction The skin is an organ consisting of tissues structurally joined together to perform specific activities (functions). The four main functions are: (1) Protection: The skin covers the body and provides a physical barrier that protects underlying tissues from physical abrasion, bacterial invasion, dehydration and ultraviolet radiation. (2) Maintenance of body temperature: The production of perspiration by sweat glands help to lower body temperature back to normal. (3) Excretion: Not only does perspiration assume a role in helping to maintain normal body temperature, it also assists in excreting small amounts of water, salts and several organic compounds. (4) Perception of stimuli: (sensitivity) The skin contains numerous nerve endings and receptors that detect stimuli related to temperature, touch, pressure and pain. Procedure: Before you introduce lesson to your students, make sure the students have one of each of the following: paper cup, toothpick, and a plastic glove. Pour one half cup of water in each cup and sprinkle pepper in the water. Write the title "What's Covering You? and Why?" on the blackboard. Ask the students if they can figure out what is going to be discussed. Hopefully, "the skin" will be their response. Use the following phenomenological approaches to teach the four functions of the skin. 1. Protection: Have the students put on one glove and stick their fingers into the water with pepper. Have the students pretend the glove is representing their skin. Now have the students take their fingers out of the water after a few seconds. Ask what happened? Have the students leave on their glove while you discuss what happened. 2. Maintenance of body temperature: By the time you finish discussing function one, the students hand with the glove should be warm and somewhat sweaty. Have the students take off the glove and wave that hand in the air. Now ask what do they feel? Discuss. 3. Excretion: Function two and three are somewhat alike. Include in your discussion that excretion is more than letting out a waste. Have the students express their opinion of excretion and the taste of perspiration. 4. Perception of stimuli (sensitivity): Have the students take the toothpick and gently rub it on their arm. Ask what they feel? Now, have the students pinch themselves (gently) and turn to the person next to them and touch them. Ask what do they feel? Discuss response. After you discuss the four functions, show pictures of the skin using the overhead projector, microprojector and model. Point out the sweat gland. Inform the students that they have two sections within the skin; the outer (epidermis) and inner (dermis) section. Within the sections are other layers. As independent practice have the students take a sheet of paper and fold it to make four squares. Then have students use crayons to draw a picture representing each function. After completing the activity, pass out colored sheets of the skin showing the outer and inner sections of the skin.

Suntans and Sunburns: A Case Study in the Integumentary System
On the first day after arriving in Australia for Christmas vacation, a student from Ohio plays out
in the sun for six hours. Later that night he notices that the skin on his trunk, legs and arms
become red, swollen and extremely painful. These areas cover about 30% of the trunk (front
and back) and 40% of the arms and legs. By morning all of the afflicted areas have developed
numerous blisters.
1. What organ has been damaged?
2. What general types of tissue have been afflicted?
3. What type of burn has the student received? Explain your reasoning.
4. What type of radiation has caused the burn?
5. List ALL the layers of the skin that have been damaged.
6. Describe the tissue repair process that causes the blistering.
7. Why would this type of burn be painful?
A burn is considered critical and should receive prompt medical attention if: � 25% of the body is covered by 2nd degree burns, or � 10% of the body is covered by 3rd degree burns
8. Use the Rule of Nines to calculate what percentage of the total body surface has been burned. Show your calculations.
9. Is the burn critical? Should the student seek medical attention? What type of treatment is to be expected?
10. List all of the body functions that may be disrupted by such a burn.
Recovery - After a few days the skin peels and the burned areas begin to heal. The student
notices that the healing areas are more susceptible to injuries due to chafing or trauma.
11. What has happened to the skin that would cause this increased susceptibility?
During the next week after the student returns to the States, his friend tells him that a sunburn
prepares his skin for a deep tan. His friend encourages him to quickly begin tanning sessions at
a local tanning salon before the effects of the burn wear off.
12. What would you advise him to do? Why?
13. Is a deep tan a sign of skin that is healthy or severely stressed? Explain your answer.

Brain vs. Spinal Cord: A Directed Case Study in CNS Injury Adapted from the Case Study by:
Patrick Field, Department of Biological Sciences, Kean University Tom Cappaert, Department of Physical Education and Sport, Central Michigan University
Dr. Green and Dr. Carter were nearing the end of the first year of their medical residency in the Emergency Department of County General Hospital. It had been a long year and a long week. They had been on duty for the last 12 hours and things were not slowing down.
“What are you plans for the weekend, Ken?” Dr. Green asked.
“Sleep, what else?” Dr. Carter replied.
“I hope things slow down a bit,” Dr. Green said to himself.
Suddenly, a call came over the radio. Paramedics were bringing in a young man with injuries sustained in a diving accident. A minute later, the doors to the department burst open and the paramedics wheeled in a young man.
“What gives?” Dr. Green asked.
The senior paramedic, Jim Morrison, reported that the patient was swimming at the local quarry and did a forward flip into the water, striking some submerged rocks.
“Which part of his body struck the rocks?” asked Dr. Carter.
“He was in a hyperflexed-tucked-position when he hit the rocks, lacerating the right side of his head and neck and upper back. The patient indicated he had severe pain upon impact and loss of sensation and movement in his arms and legs. He may have lost consciousness, but he’s not sure. He also complains of a severe headache, dizziness, and nausea. When we arrived at the scene we immobilized, stabilized, and transported him immediately,” Jim explained.
Looking at the patient, Jim continued. “His name is Mike Smith, and he’s 22 years of age. His vital signs include blood pressure of 100/70, heart rate of 75 beats per minute, respiration rate of 17, and he is conscious and alert.”
As the patient was being prepped for examination, Dr. Carter and Dr. Green discussed how they should approach their evaluation. Dr. Carter started by saying, “After seeing the head wound and hearing his complaints, I want to confirm my suspicion that this patient has a brain injury.”
Dr. Green disagreed: “I think that the other signs and symptoms indicate a spinal cord injury, and that’s what we should investigate.”
The following table summarizes the findings of the evaluation, which included a physical exam, x-rays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and neurological tests.
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 136
Table 1. Summary of Diagnostic Testing for Mike Smith
General Examination
• Other vital signs within normal limits
• Cognitive testing normal (knows name, date, and place; can count backward from 100 by
5s)

X-Ray and MRI Examination
• No skull fractures present
• Fracture in C7 vertebra
• Significant swelling present in spinal canal in C7-T2 region
Questions
1. Based on the findings presented, which doctor made the correct initial prediction?
2. Based on previous knowledge of brain function, what results from the testing were consistent with a brain injury?
3. Based on previous knowledge of spinal cord function, what results from the testing were consistent with a spinal cord injury?
4. Based on previous knowledge of CNS function, what results could be consistent with both types of injury?
5. Assuming the incorrect diagnosis true, predict how the findings would be different.

TEACHER’S GUIDE
The following information explains each aspect of the clinical case and points to
information that can be covered, time permitting. Each teacher, however, can
choose the extent to which the information is relevant to his or her class or
appropriate for the level of students.
BOTTOM-LINE: This is a classic case of a hemisected of the spinal cord.
INTRODUCTION: Head injuries and traumatic brain injury (TBI)
With brain injury, the first clinical indicator is lack of consciousness (brainstem or
brain swelling), and then cognition (direct attention to the cerebral cortex). Next,
pay attention to cranial nerve signs. If these are intact, attention should be directed
to the spinal cord.
A closed head injury, of the type that could result from the injuries described in this case, is an injury to the brain inside an intact skull. Injury to the brain causes swelling, which quickly increases the pressure within the skull (intracranial pressure). The increased pressure causes more damage to the brain, which causes more swelling.
• Concussion – a jarring injury to the brain. A person who has a concussion usually, but not always, passes out for a short while. The person may feel dazed and may lose vision or balance for a while after the injury.
• Brain contusion – a bruise of the brain. This means there is some bleeding in the brain, causing swelling.
• Skull fracture – when the skull cracks. Sometimes the edges of broken skull bones cut into the brain and cause bleeding or other injury.
• Hematoma – bleeding in the brain that collects and clots, forming a bump. A hematoma may not be apparent for a day or even as long as several weeks. Watch out for headaches, listlessness, balance problems, or nausea and vomiting.
Loss of consciousness, even very briefly, is one of the clearest indications that a blow to the head may have affected the brain. A confusional state involving uncertainty about time, date, and location, and/or a period of memory loss for the events surrounding the head injury, are also indicators of trauma to the brain.
The person's state of consciousness, orientation to time and place, and immediate memory function (e.g., remembering a series of four numbers) should be evaluated periodically during this time. Any evidence of deterioration may be a sign of the delayed effects of brain injury due to swelling or internal bleeding.
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 138
Headache, dizziness, and nausea
Headache immediately following head injury usually clears after minutes or days, but may persist for months or rarely years. The long-term headaches are called post-traumatic or post-concussion headaches.
One can understand why headaches may follow a moderate or severe injury to the brain such as a concussion (bruise) or laceration (tear). Mild injuries of the brain are characterized as a concussion (a brief disturbance of brain function causing loss of consciousness or transient difficulty in thought processes).
Because the neurological examination after mild head injury is normal and standard tests as well as imaging studies (such as MRI or CT of the head) fail to reveal abnormalities, many thought that the symptoms following mild head injury were psychological.
But microscopic studies have shown disruption of the nerve fibers in the brain due to the stretching or shearing forces of the trauma. Other subtle changes have been noted in brain functioning.
Unfortunately, people who experience post-traumatic headaches also experience other neurological symptoms, such as dizziness, ringing in the ears, vague blurring of vision, psychological symptoms occur such as depression, anxiety, personality change, disturbance in sleep and impairment libido.
INTRODUCTION: Spinal cord injury
With spinal cord injury, the main goal is to distinguish between upper and lower
motor neuron signs alone, or in combination. Then, you need to compare the
effects on sensory pathways on each side of the body.
Symptoms vary somewhat depending on the location of the injury. Spinal cord injury results in varying degrees of weakness and sensory loss at and below the injury. The pattern depends on whether the entire cord is injured (complete) or only partially (incomplete).
Cervical (near the neck) injuries: When spinal cord injuries occur near the neck, varying degrees of clinical signs can affect both the arms and the legs:
• Weakness, paralysis
• Breathing difficulties (from paralysis of breathing muscles)
• Spasticity (increased muscle tone)
• Sensory changes
• Numbness
• Pain
• Loss of normal bowel and bladder control (e.g., constipation, incontinence, bladder spasms)
Thoracic (chest-level) injuries: When spinal injuries occur at chest level, varying degrees of clinical signs can affect the legs:
• Weakness, paralysis
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 139
• Breathing difficulties (from paralysis of the breathing muscles)
• Spasticity (increased muscle tone)
• Sensory changes
• Numbness
• Pain
• Loss of normal bowel and bladder control (e.g., constipation, incontinence, bladder spasms)
Injuries to the cervical or high thoracic cord may also result in blood pressure problems, abnormal sweating, and trouble maintaining regular body temperature.
Since the spinal cord does not extend below the L1 vertebra (although the dorsal and ventral roots do), injuries at and below this level do not cause spinal cord injury.
LINK – SKELETAL SYSTEM: Review bones of the skull and vertebral column
LINK – CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM: Review basic blood supply to brain and meninges
General Examination
Vital signs – Normal ranges of vital sign values for adults
Temperature Normal average (oral temperature) = 98.6ºF ±1ºF (37ºC)
In most adults, an oral temperature above 100 F or a rectal or ear temperature above 101 F is considered a fever. A child has a fever when his or her rectal temperature is 100.4 F or higher.
Pulse 60-100 beats/min
BP 90-140 mmHg (systolic)
60-90 mmHg (diastolic)
Respiration 12-20 breaths/min
Bottom-line: Intact vital signs indicate that breathing centers in medulla is
intact.
LINK – CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM: Review how blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration is influenced by nervous system
Cognitive function
Cognitive tests are useful for diagnosing individuals with brain injury.
Cognition refers to thinking skills. Cognition includes an awareness of one's surroundings, sustained attention to tasks, memory, reasoning, problem solving, and executive functioning (e.g., goal setting, planning, initiating, self-awareness, self-inhibiting, self-monitoring and evaluation, flexibility of thinking). Cognitive difficulties are highly common in persons who
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 140
are traumatically brain injured, and problems again vary depending on the location and severity of the injury to the brain.
• Patients frequently have trouble concentrating when there are internal and external distractions, e.g., carrying on a conversation in a noisy restaurant or dividing attention among multiple tasks/demands.
• Processing or "taking in" of new information is generally slower. Longer messages may have to be "chunked," or broken down into smaller pieces. The patient may have to repeat/rehearse incoming messages to make sure he or she has processed the crucial information. Communication partners may have to slow down their rate of speech to accommodate the patient's processing needs.
• Recent memory is affected, making new learning difficult, e.g., students may have trouble learning and retaining new concepts taught in class. Long-term memory for events and things that occurred pre-injury, however, is generally unaffected, e.g., the patient will remember names of friends and family.
• Impairments in executive functioning diminish the ability to initiate tasks and set long-term and short-term goals for task completion. Planning and organizing the job at hand is an effort, and it is difficult to self-evaluate work. Consequently, these individuals seem disorganized and unable to negotiate their lives without the assistance of families and friends. They also may have difficulty solving problems, and they may react impulsively (without thinking first) to situations.
Bottom-line: The findings presented (PT oriented to name, time and place) are
generally not consistent with brain injury.
REVIEW: parts of brain and their major functions
Sensory Testing
Decreased sensation from limbs
• Decreased sensation to touch, pressure, and vibration in right upper/lower extremities
• Decreased temperature discrimination (cold vs. warm) in left upper/lower extremities
LINK – INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM: Review different “modalities” of general
sensation to skin via different types of skin receptors
Unencapsulated nerve endings
Free nerve endings
Nociceptors – respond to painful stimuli
Skin and all organs (except brain); found in meninges of brain and play important
role in headaches
Warm receptors – respond to rising temperature
Cold receptors – respond to falling temperature
Tactile (Merkel) discs – tonic receptors for light touch (e.g., textures, edges, shapes) Hair receptors – monitor movements of hairs
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 141
Encapsulated nerve endings
Tactile (Meissner) corpuscles – phasic receptors for light touch and texture
Located in dermal papillae of hairless areas (e.g., fingertips, palms, eyelids, lips,
nipples, and parts of genitals)
Krause end bulbs – similar to tactile (Meissner) corpuscles
Located in mucous membranes
Lamellated (pacinian) corpuscles – phasic receptors for deep pressure, stretch, tickle, and
vibration
Located in dermis of hands, feet, breasts, and genitals
Also located in periosteum, joint capsules, pancreas, and some other viscera
Ruffini corpuscles – tonic receptors for heavy touch, pressure, stretching of skin, and
joint movements
Located in dermis, subcutaneous tissue, ligaments, tendons, and joint capsules
Muscle spindles – sense muscle stretch (proprioception) Golgi tendon organs – sense tension in tendons (proprioception)
General rule: Three neurons (first-, second-, and third-order) required for
sensory signal to pass from receptor to brain.
First-order neuron
Receptor to spinal cord
First-order neurons for touch, pressure, and proprioception
Large, myelinated, and fast
First-order neurons for heat and cold Small, unmyelinated to lightly myelinated, and slow
Second-order neuron
Spinal cord to brainstem
Third-order neuron
Brainstem to brain
REVIEW: Two types of projection ascending (sensory) pathways
Posterior column pathway: Proprioception, fine touch discrimination, and
pressure
• First-order neuron – DRG (sensory) neuron
Central process enters dorsal horn Axons project on same side in dorsal part of spinal cord up to cuneate nucleus in medulla oblongata where it synapses
• Second-order neuron – Cuneate neuron
Axon crosses to opposite medial lemniscus and ascends to
thalamus where it synapses
• Third-order neuron – Thalamic neuron
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 142
Ascends to somesthetic cortex in postcentral gyrus in parietal
lobe on same side
Spinothalamic pathway: Pain and temperature
• First-order neuron – DRG neuron
Central process enters and synapses in dorsal horn on same
side where it synapses
• Second-order neuron – Dorsal horn neuron
Axon crosses to opposite anterolateral system where it then turns and ascends via spinothalamic tract to thalamus where it
synapses
• Third-order neuron – Thalamic neuron
Ascends to somatosensory cortex in postcentral gyrus in
parietal lobe on same side
Bottom-line: Sensory neurons on one side of the cerebral cortex respond to
sensory input from opposite side of the body.
EXPLANATION OF FINDINGS: The decreased sensation to touch, pressure,
and vibration in right upper and lower extremities indicates that the impairment of the sensory fibers must be in a place that affects both upper and lower limbs. Since the sensory fibers for touch, pressure, and vibration ascend on the same side (the right side in this case) to the medulla oblongata before crossing to the left side, the most likely explanation is that an injury to the right side of the spinal cord at about C7 and affects ascending tracts. These ascending fibers travel upward in the dorsal part of the spinal cord and it is likely that the right side of the spinal cord was damaged in this area.
The decreased temperature discrimination in left upper and lower extremities
indicates that the impairment of the sensory fibers must be in a place that affects both upper and lower limbs. Since these sensory fibers from the left side cross to the opposite side in the spinal cord at approximately the level where they enter and then ascend in the anterolateral pathways, it is likely that the damage to the right side of the spinal cord also impacted these pathways.
Motor Testing
Decreased strength and movement in right extremities
LINK – MUSCULAR SYSTEM: Review the following:
• Neuromuscular junction
• Mechanism of muscle contraction (sliding filament theory)
• Action(s) of muscle being tested, as well as their antagonists
REVIEW: Projection descending (motor) pathways
Two principles:
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 143
• Descending tracts carry signals from the brain to a muscle for
voluntary movement.
• Upper motor neurons on one side of the brain control muscles on
opposite side of the body.
Two neurons are involved: an upper motor neuron and a lower motor
neuron
• Upper motor neuron
o Soma in cerebral cortex (precentral gyrus in frontal cortex) or brainstem (cranial nerve nuclei – should be intact)
o Corticospinal tracts (lateral and ventral) � Carry axons down to spinal cord
� All cross to opposite side
• Crossing can occur in medulla oblongata (at medullary pyramids) or in spinal cord at level of motor neuron
o Projects to ventral horn of spinal cord
• Lower motor neuron
o Soma in ventral horn of spinal cord o Projects to muscle
EXPLANATION OF FINDINGS: The symptoms of motor weakness are consistent with a spinal cord lesion that affected lower motor neurons in the
right ventral horn. The lesion would have also affected the descending
pathways that course down from the medulla oblongata on the same (right) side.
Absence of triceps and biceps reflexes in right upper extremity
LINK – MUSCULAR SYSTEM: Review the triceps and biceps brachii muscles and their innervation
• Triceps brachii m. – innervated by radial nerve (C6-8)
• Biceps brachii m. – innervated by musculocutaneous nerve (C5-6)
Bottom-line: Need to have the monosynaptic loop intact for these reflexes. The
absence of reflexes is an indication of lower motor neuron (LMN) symptoms.
• Reflexes controlled by LMNs at level of lesion are generally hypo-reflexive (i.e., absence of the reflex).
• Reflexes controlled by LMNs below level of lesion, are generally hyper-reflexive (i.e., heightened or exaggerated reflex). This is, presumably, due to loss of inhibition from descending motor pathways.
Patellar hyper-reflex (right side) – also known as the knee-jerk reflex

b. Where would you find receptors that can stimulate a somatic reflex? Skin, muscle, or tendon
c. Are reflexes slow or fast? d. Are reflexes voluntary or involuntary? e. Are reflexes predictable (i.e., stereotyped)?

k. How is impulse transferred from one neuron to another? A synapse is involved
l. What is a lower motor neuron? m. Is the impulse transferred directly or indirectly to the lower motor neuron?

b. Spinal levels involved in patellar reflex
L3 and L4 a. What nerve is involved in transmitting this sensory information?
Femoral
c. What type of injury would cause a decreased (but still present reflex) or loss of a patellar reflex?
a. Herniated L5-S1 disc can put pressure on S1 nerve root leading to loss of reflex.
Activity: have students attempt to elicit this reflex
Achilles hyper-reflex (right side)
a. General questions:
What type of stimulation required for a skeletal muscle (somatic) reflex? Sensory or motor?
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 145
Note: these have also been called spinal reflexes, but this is not a good term since visceral (autonomic) reflexes also involve the spinal cord.
Where would you find receptors that can stimulate a somatic reflex? Skin, muscle, or tendon Are reflexes slow or fast? Are reflexes voluntary or involuntary? Are reflexes predictable (i.e., stereotyped)?
b. Tendon struck by hammer
Where is the Achilles (or calcaneal) tendon and what two structures does is connect? Is a tendon different from a ligament?
c. Stimulates impulse in stretch receptor in tendon – impulse carried by sensory nerves to spinal cord
Is this an afferent or efferent impulse? Where is cell body of sensory nerve? Where does the central process of this nerve end? A: Dorsal horn
d. Impulse transmitted to lower motor neuron
How is impulse transferred from one neuron to another? A synapse is involved
What is a lower motor neuron? Is the impulse transferred directly or indirectly to the lower motor neuron?
Usually involves an interneuron.
e. Impulse transmitted to muscle
f. Spinal levels involved in Achilles reflex
S1 and S2
g. What type of injury would cause a decreased (but still present reflex) or loss of a patellar reflex?
Herniated L5-S1 disc can put pressure on S1 nerve root leading to loss of reflex.
ACTIVITY: have students attempt to elicit this reflex
Positive Babinski sign (right side)
Babinski sign (AKA plantar response (because the sole is the plantar surface of the foot), the toe or big toe sign or phenomenon, and the Babinski reflex, response or phenomenon) obtained by stimulating the external (outside) part of sole. Examiner begins stimulation back at heel and goes forward to base of toes.
The Babinski sign is manifest by the upturning of the big toe and also by fanning of the other toes.
Most newborn babies, and many infants, are not neurologically mature so they normally show a Babinski sign. Upon stimulation of the sole, they extend the great toe. With time
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT3:Nervous & Endocrine 146
during infancy the Babinski response vanishes and, under normal circumstances, should never return. A Babinski sign in an older child or adult is abnormal. It is a sign of a problem in the central nervous system (CNS), most likely in a part of the CNS called the pyramidal tract, and presumably indicates incomplete upper motor neuron control of local motor neuron circuitry.
The normal response in an adult to stroking the sole of the foot is flexion of the big toe, and often the other toes. Following damage to descending upper motor neuron pathways, however, this stimulus elicits extension of the big toe and a fanning of the other toes.
REVIEW: pyramidal tract
ACTIVITY: have students attempt to elicit this sign
EXPLANATION OF FINDING: Usually, this abnormal reflex reflects damage to descending upper motor neuron pathways and a resulting incomplete upper motor neuron control of local (lower) motor neuron circuitry. These fibers descend in Lateral corticospinal tract which is damaged by the lesion.
X-Ray and MRI Examination
Skull fracture (FX)
Skull FX, breaking the bony skull, is a primary injury with traumatic brain injury (TBI).
LINK – SKELETAL SYSTEM: Review bones of the skull and the fact that the periosteum that surrounds bone has nociceptors (pain receptors)
C7 vertebra fracture (FX)
FX can result in direct compression or severing of spinal cord.
LINK – SKELETAL SYSTEM: Review bones of the vertebral column and the fact that the periosteum that surrounds bone has nociceptors (pain receptors).
LINK – CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM: Review the course of the vertebral artery and its relationship to the cervical transverse processes.
Swelling in spinal canal C7-T2
This finding suggests that fluid accumulating within the bony vertebral canal, which houses the spinal cord, could exert local pressure on the spinal cord.
Bleeding, fluid accumulation, and swelling can occur inside the spinal cord or outside the spinal cord (but within the spinal canal). The accumulation of blood or fluid can compress the spinal cord and damage or impair its function.

PBL Activity for The Digestive System and Metabolism
Driving Question: What happens to food as it moves through the alimentary canal so that the body can use it for energy?
In this project the path of a piece of pizza will be followed through the alimentary canal three times. A piece of pizza is chosen because it contains proteins, carbohydrates and lipids which are broken down at different places and by different secretions throughout the system. It will be done three times to show progression of the complexity of digestion. Students will need to accurately place themselves in the alimentary canal depending on the role they’ve been assigned. Students will be able to get help from the class and the students who are playing the role of the digestive tract organs, accessory organs and secretions. Students will wear placards to indicate what “role” they are playing. Placards will be made ahead of time by the teacher. They can be note cards attached to the students’ shirts by safety pins, or larger laminated 8x11 sheets hung around the students necks.
Level 1: This is done after students have been introduced to the digestive system. Students should know the major organs of the digestive system. They will then be given placards representing the following structures: Mouth, Pharynx, Esophagus, Stomach, Small Intestine (can do three subdivisions), Large Intestine (can do subdivisions of colon), Anus, and Pizza. The student representing the pizza will have to move past each organ in correct sequence. This will require that each student representing the organ has to be in their correct position as well.
Level 2: This is done after students have been introduced to the accessory organs of the digestive system. Students could then perform the activity again using the correct accessory organs in the correct order to identify what parts of the GI tract the specific accessory organs go with. They will also demonstrate understanding of where the proteins, carbohydrates and lipids are broken down. The following organs and/or substances will be added on placards: Salivary Glands, Teeth, Gastric Glands (gastric juice), Pancreas, Liver, Gallbladder, Protein, Carbohydrate and Lipid, Water, Undigested Foods, Bacteria, Vitamin K and Vitamin B. Using the placards from Level 1 along with the new placards, students will arrange themselves so that the accessory organs are in line with the major organ. Now, as the components of the pizza pass by the major organ, the students representing the accessory organs will have to demonstrate when they would add their secretions to the system. For example, the lipid should pass through the stomach untouched, but when it gets to the small intestines, the pancreas should show that it is responsible for the digestion of the lipids. As the “food” continues to move through the system and is broken down, it would then exit the system depending upon where it would be absorbed. “Foods” would continue through the system being broken down and absorbed until the undigested foods are eliminated through the anus.
Alterations in the project at Level 2: *Each accessory organ student could have a large sticker, or another placard, representing themselves that they stick on to the “food” students placard whenever there is breakdown of that component. For example, when the lipid gets to the duodenum, the pancreas could attach a
Anatomy and Physiology Course of Study, UNIT 6: Digestive & Metabolism 254
sticker to that students’ placard. Each accessory organ would have a color that represents the break down of a particular food component. This will provide additional visualization of exactly where that particular food is being digested.
*The amount of detail can be increased or decreased depending on the number of students available for the project.
Level 3: This is done after students have been introduced to the actual secretions and enzymes that are needed for the digestion of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins. Placards for secretions to include would be: Salivary Amylase, Gastric juice, Pepsinogen (protease), Lipases, Bile, and Brush Border Enzymes. This will be done in the same manner as Level 2, but these specific secretions/enzymes should be added at the appropriate place.
Alterations in Level 3: The end products of digestion: amino acids, sugars (glucose), fatty acids and glycerol could be added to the process.

Questions to consider in teaching the problem-based unit
1. What are examples of protein in the human diet? a. Review examples in each student’s diet…are there animal-derived examples?
Plant-derived examples. b. This information would tie nicely in with the digestive unit.
2. What is a protein’s structure?
a. Review amino acids, number of amino acids, which are essential/non-essential, structural levels of complexity, etc.
b. How does the body handle proteins, in terms of digestion?
3. How do proteins differ in size? In terms of various proteins that are ingested, are these broken down into amino acids? How do dietary proteins vary from other proteins in the body, i.e., enzymes, hormones, plasma proteins, etc.? Are any of these proteins filtered in the kidneys? Are amino acids?
a. Review filtration – glomerulus b. Could students build representative models to demonstrate various proteins and
amino acids? Beads? Blocks? Other items?
4. How do proteins vary in size with other dietary macromolecules (i.e., carbohydrates, lipids) and micromolecules (i.e, vitamins and minerals)?
a. Review each classification, examples and discuss sizes of each…. Are these filtered in the kidneys?
5. Discuss the filtration membrane – what is this? How does it work? What normally gets
filtered in the glomerulus? a. Review and discuss its structural features
6. (Relating to #5)….what if the filtration membrane is compromised? What if it is
dysfunctional? What types of conditions might results – how would these affect kidney function and homeostatic balance?
a. Identify various conditions …. Nephritis, etc. Define and apply these conditions to the question above.
7. What if proteins are filtered in the kidneys? If they are, what might be some examples?
If this normal? If not, why? a. Review glomerular filtration and kidney function.
8. What materials are normally filtered in the kidneys? Give examples.

SECTION 6: STUDENT ASSESSMENT POLICY
The standards set for these competencies are recommended by a joint secondary and postsecondary Anatomy and Physiology faculty who served as the writing team. In order to receive credit for the course, competencies to be mastered must be determined by the teacher as suggested by the writing team. In order to measure the progress of each student in the program and to measure the effectiveness of the total program, the following procedures are examples that can be used:
• Oral Presentation
• Pretests
• Post Tests
• Teacher observation and evaluation
• Notebooks/Journal
• Portfolio
• Class discussions
• Skill testing
• Project development
• Daily grades
• Practical/performance
• Lab reports Measurement of learning will be an ongoing activity with emphasis on laboratory activities and competency improvement. Evaluation will be accomplished through pre-assessment of student’s skills, frequent formative assessment, both visual and written, and summative evaluation to determine the mastery of competencies. Formative assessments that are conducted during instruction help the teacher make necessary instructional adjustments. The instructor may decide to alter instructional materials and methods if students are experiencing difficulties in learning what is being taught. All evaluations are in the form of points received out of points possible. A percentage is then calculated and a letter grade is assigned. Progress reports on all students are mailed to parents on mid-term of each grading period. Insert your districts grading scale
