Definition and scope of anatomy and physiology, structural organization and body system levels, Basic Life processes, and homeostasis Basic anatomical terminology.
Human Anatomy & Physiology
It is defined as the study of the structure and functions of the human body.
Anatomy
It is the branch of science concerned with the study of the structure of different human body organs.
example: histology (study about fissue).
Physiology
The branch of science deals with the study of the functions of different human body organs.
example: Neurophysiology (study about neurons).
Scope of Anatomy & Physiology
It is about what we can do from anatomy and physiology.
- Study of structure and function of body parts.
- parameters of normal health, such as temperature PH, basic needs, etc.
- Pathology of disease.
- Surgery techniques
- Human evolution and development.
Example: Histology study about tissue.
Levels of Structural Organisation
The human body is a six-level organized structure.
