III. Models

A. The Generalized Cell: This model demonstrates the general  structure found in the typical animal cell. In addition, the magnification is great enough to show many of the ultramicrosopic structures clearly. In the lower portion of the cell, structures are shown in high relief while in the upper portion they are in section.

1. Cell membrane

2. Pinocytic vesicle

3. Cytoplasm

4. Endoplasmic reticulum

5. Golgi body (section)

6. Golgi body (surface)

7. Centrosome

8. Lysosome

9. Mitochondria

10. Vacuole

11. Nucleus

12. Nucleolus

13. Nuclear membrane

B. Torso Models (see Appendix A)

Identify each organ in these models and place them in the correct body cavity.

Dorsal Cavity

Cranial Cavity

Spinal Cavity

Ventral Cavity

Thoracic Cavity

Abdomino-Pelvic Cavity

IV. Dissection: None

V. Audio-Visual

A. Identify the following body sections and planes.

B. Identify the following anatomical relationships:

a. anterior b. caudal c. cranial d. distal

e. inferior f. lateral g. medial h. palmar

i. peripheral j. plantar k. posterior l. proximal
