An Overview of A & P
• Anatomy– Study of the structure of body parts and their
relationship to one another
![Page 3: Chapter 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815f55550346895dce33ee/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
An Overview of A & P
• Physiology– How the parts of
the body work and carry out their life-sustaining activities
![Page 4: Chapter 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815f55550346895dce33ee/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
An Overview of A & P
• Macroscopic (Gross) Anatomy– Study of the body structures that are visible to the
naked eye
![Page 5: Chapter 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815f55550346895dce33ee/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
An Overview of A & P

An Overview of A & P
• Principle of complementarity of structure and function– What a structure can do depends on its specific
form!• Bones can support because they contain hard mineral
deposits• Blood flows in one direction in the heart because of the
valves.
