Human Body Studies and Composition

The study of systems and organs of the human body and their functions is known as Human Anatomy and Physiology.
Adult male bodies are approximately 60% water, essential for various bodily functions.

Body Components

Elements NOT typically identified as components of the human body include noble gases like argon and neon.
The torso comprises the chest, abdomen, and back; it does NOT include the limbs or head.

Medicinal Chemistry

Medicinal Chemistry primarily focuses on the design, development, and evaluation of pharmaceutical compounds.
This field intersects with disciplines like organic chemistry, pharmacology, and biochemistry.

Medicinal Compounds

Broad classes of compounds used as medicines include small molecules, biologics, and vaccines.
Medicinal Inorganic Chemistry investigates inorganic compounds and their potential therapeutic uses.

Biologics

In medicinal chemistry, biologics refer to large, complex molecules derived from living organisms, used for treatment or prevention of diseases, such as monoclonal antibodies.
