Physiology

Physiology is the branch of science that studies the functioning of living organisms and their parts. It is concerned with the physical, chemical, and biological processes that enable an organism to carry out its life processes and respond to its environment. Examining how organs, cells, and tissues interact to form a system capable of producing life is fundamental to understanding physiology. Through understanding physiology, we gain insights into how a living organism functions and how we can better use its capabilities to benefit both human and animal health. Physiology is an invaluable tool to scientists, medical professionals, and engineers, and its applications can be found in a variety of fields, including medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology.
