Concerns the function of the
body, in other words, how the
body parts work and carry out
Physiology
their life sustaining activities.
Often focuses on cellular and
molecular level.
Study of large body structures
Gross or Macroscopic visible to naked eye (ex: heart,
Anatomy lungs, kidneys).
All structures in a particular
region of the body, ex:
Regional Anatomy
abdomen, leg
Body structure is studied system
by system, ex: cardiovascular
Systemic Antomy system, you would examine the
heart and blood vessels of the
entire body.
Deals with structures too small to be seen with the
Microscopic Anatomy
naked eye.
Studies cells of the body.
Cytology
Studies microscopic tissues of
the body.
Histology
Traces structural changes that
occur throughout the life span.
Developmental Anatomy

Principle of Anatomy and physiology are inseparable because
complementarity of function always reflects structure. What a structure
structure and function can do depends on its specific form.
