• The scientific discipline that investigates the structure of the
body.
• “Anatomy” means to dissect, or to cut apart and separate, the
parts of the body.
• Covers: Structure of the body, microscopic organization,
processes by which they develop.
• Examines the relationship of the structure of the body part and
its function
• Systemic: studies body systems
• Regional: studies body regions (medical schools)
• surface: studies external features, e.g., bone projections
• anatomical imaging: using technologies (x-rays, ultrasound, MRI
The study of function in living organisms.
• It explores the mechanisms by which the organisms control
their internal environments regardless of what happens in the
outside (or external) environment.
Major Goals of Physiology:
• Understand and predict the body’s response to stimuli.
• Understand how the body maintains conditions within a
range of values in a presence of a continually changing
environment.
Understand how the body:
Responds to stimuli
• environmental change.
• environmental cues
• diseases
• Injury
Maintains stable, internal conditions despite continually
changing environment
