what is anatomy?
- -study of structure (at different levels of organization) and the relationships among structures.
- -study of internal and external structures of the body and the physical relationships among body parts
Subdivisions - include: surface, gross, systemic, regional, radiographic, developmental,
- embryology, cytology, pathological
Ex. How a muscle attaches to the skeleton
-
What is Physiology?
- -study of how body structures function.
- -study of how living organisms perform their vital functions
Subdivisions include: cell, system, exercise, pathophysiology, neurophysiology, renal,
endocrinology, respiratory, immunophysiology, cardiovascular, reproductive.
- Example:
- How a muscle contracts or the forces that cause contracting
-
What are the Levels of Organization?
- Chemical – atoms
- Cell– structural & functional unit
- Tissue– group of cells with similar function
- Organ– 2 or more tissues performing function
- System– related organs with common function
- Organism
