anatomy and physiology

Medium of Transport in the Body

• Transports substances like heat, nutrients, oxygen, and waste.

• Immunophysiology: Protects the body against invading microorganisms and rogue cells.

Renal Physiology

• Focuses on kidney function and urinary system structures.

• Manages waste excretion and homeostasis processes (e.g., blood pressure, fluid balance).

Respiratory Physiology

• Involves lungs and circulatory organs.

• Explains air intake, oxygen diffusion into blood, and carbon dioxide exhalation.

Biochemistry

• Studies chemical processes in living organisms.

• Combines chemistry (atoms, molecules, compounds) and biology (living organisms).

• Focuses on interactions between biological molecules (proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids) and metabolic functions.
