Compare and contrast the study of anatomy and physiology. Describe the structure of the body, from simplest to most complex. Define homeostasis and explain its importance to normal human functioning. Use appropriate anatomical terminology to identify key body structures, body regions, and directions in the body.
Define the terms anatomy and physiology, and give specific examples to show the interrelationship between anatomy and physiology. Human Anatomy (ana- = “up”, tome = “to cut”) is often defined as the study of structures in the human body.
Whereas anatomy is about structure, physiology is about function. Human physiology is the scientific study of the chemistry and physics of the structures of the body and the ways in which they work together to support the functions of life.
