    Study Notes

    Anatomy and Physiology

    • The main focus of anatomy is the study of the form and structure of organisms.
    • The branch of biology that deals with the form and structure of organisms is anatomy.
    • Anatomy has subdivisions, including regional anatomy, which looks at all structures in a particular area of the body.
    • Another subdivision is systemic anatomy, which looks at just one system (cardiovascular, nervous, muscular, etc.).
    • Gross or macroscopic anatomy focuses on the study of body structures that can be seen with the naked eye.

    Physiology

    • Physiology primarily deals with the study of the function of body parts and how they work to carry out life-sustaining activities.
    • The main focus of physiology is the study of the function of body parts and how they work to carry out life-sustaining activities.
    • A subdivision of physiology often focuses on cellular and molecular levels of the body.
    • To study physiology, one must understand anatomy.

    Other Key Concepts

    • Cytology refers to the study of cells.
    • Histology refers to the study of tissues.
    • Organs are the level of structural organization that contains two or more types of tissues.
    • The blood is responsible for the transport and delivery of oxygen to other body tissues.
    • The principle that states function always reflects structure is a fundamental concept in anatomy and physiology.
    • Surface anatomy looks at internal structures as they relate to overlying skin, such as visible muscle masses or veins seen on the surface.
    • To study anatomy, one must know and be able to identify and describe the structure and organization of the human body.
    • Learning and understanding anatomical terminology is important because it provides a common language for communication and helps to accurately describe and identify structures.
