Which of the following best defines physiology? The study of all chemical reactions that occur within body cells. The study of how the body parts work and carry out their life-sustaining activities. The study of tissues. The study of the structure of body parts and their relationships to one another.
Which of the following best describes macroscopic anatomy? The study of structural changes caused by disease. The study of structures too small to be seen with the naked eye. The study of large body structures visible to the naked eye, such as the heart, lungs, and kidneys. The study of structural changes that occur in the body throughout one's lifespan.
Embryology is a subdivision of anatomy that deals with developmental changes that occur before birth. True/ False
Blood flows in one direction through the heart because the heart has valves that prevent backflow. This phenomenon exemplifies: the principle of complementarity of structure and function. the principle of microscopic anatomy. the principle of structural organization. the principles of cardiovascular physiology.
