Study Notes

Anatomy

  • Anatomy is the branch of science that studies the structure of the body.
  • The term "Anatomy" originates from the Greek word "anatome," meaning "dissection" or "cutting up.”
  • Regional Anatomy focuses on studying the body by regions, such as the head, neck, trunk, and limbs.
  • Surface Anatomy examines the external features of the body and their relation to deeper structures.
  • Systemic Anatomy focuses on studying the body by systems, such as the skeletal system, muscular system, or nervous system.

Physiology

  • Physiology is the branch of science that studies the function and processes in living organisms, including humans.
  • The main goal of Physiology is to understand how the body works and to maintain its balance and stability.
