Study Notes
Physiology
- Branch of biology concerned with vital processes of living organisms and how their constituent tissues and cells function
Importance of Physiology
- Essential for understanding human energy expenditure during work
Work Physiology
- Concerned with how the human body copes with physical stress, work strain, and the working environment
- Studies the physical toll that work takes on a person to minimize it
- Examines how the body performs under various environmental conditions
- Investigates the amount of rest required and when the body can work at peak levels
- Analyzes changes in the human body resulting from single or multiple instances of work stress
Variations in Work Capacity
- Physical condition is a key factor in differences in work capacity between individuals
- Highly trained individuals have varying levels of work capacity
