Fundamentals of Anatomy & Physiology [8th Edition] Anatomy and Physiology Practice Questions and Answers |2026/2027
The study of the structure of the body parts and their relationships to one another. ✔️Anatomy
The study of the function of the body's structural machinery. ✔️physiology
Particular region of the body such as the abdomen or leg are examined at the same time. (Ex. muscle,
bones,blood vessels, nerves,etc) ✔️Regional (Gross Anatomy)
Gross anatomy of the body studied system by system. ✔️Systemic (Gross Anatomy)
Study of internal structures as they relate to the overlying skin. ✔️Surface (Gross anatomy)
structures too small to see with the naked eye. ✔️microscopic
The study of the cells of the body. ✔️Cytology
The study body of tissues. ✔️Histology
structural changes that occur in the body through out the life spam. Traces changes throughout life.
✔️Developmental anatomy
Study of the developmental changes of the body before birth. ✔️Embryology
study of structural changes cause by disease. ✔️Pathological anatomy
study of internal structures visualized by specialized scanning procedures such as X-ray,MRI, and CT
scans. ✔️Radiographic anatomy
Study of anatomical structures at a subcellular level. ✔️Molecular biology
Kidney functions and urine production. ✔️Renal Physiology
workings of the nervous system. ✔️Neurophysiology
operation of the heart and blood vessels ✔️cardiovascular physiology
Function always reflects structure. what a structure can do depends on its specific form. ✔️Principle of
complementarity structure and function.
First Atoms combined to form molecules ✔️Chemical level
next cells are made of the molecules. ✔️cellular level
consists of the similar types of cells ✔️tissue level
made up of different types of cells ✔️organ level
consists of different organs that work closely together. ✔️organ system level
made up of the organ systems. ✔️Organismal level
Forms the external body covering.
