Elementary anatomy and physiology : for colleges, academies, and other schools elementaryanato00hitc Year: 1869 AND PHYSIOLOGY. 29 Another primary element of the nervous system is com- posed of nucleated cells, containing a finely granulated sub- stance. These sometimes have processes which give them a caudate or stellate form, as in Fig. 29. Fia. 29. 79. An Organ. The System— Such are the tissues which, combined in various proportions, make up the organs of the human body. And by the term organ we mean a part usually composed of several tissues adapted to certain functions. And though harmoniously united into a single system, that is, the body, the anatomist can dissect and describe them separately. In this work the following order will be adopted: 1. Osteology, or an account of the Bones or framework of the system. 2. Myology, an account of the Muscles or the moving pow- ers of the system. 3. Splanchnology, or the Nutritive Organs. 4. Angiology, an account of the Circulating System of the arteries and veins. 7f. Define an organ. What is the system ? What is Osteology ? Myology? etc.
