Anatomy and Physiology: Chapter 1 Word Cloud

I made homeostasis the largest word because the body is always trying to maintain stable conditions through dynamic equilibrium.  The organ systems help keep our internal conditions stable by performing their functions efficiently and feedback mechanisms by controlling our responses to stimuli.  In anatomy, the three planes (sagittal, frontal, transverse), directional terms, regional terms, and body cavities are used to indicate where each body part is, making it easier to understand how each body part relates to each other.
