    Unit 5: Anatomy and Physiology (P4) Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body In this task I am going to discuss the three systems involved in energy metabolism in the body. The chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + O2 = E + CO2 + H2O OR Glucose + Oxygen = Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water In order to release energy we need glucose which is a simple carbohydrate that is produced after digestion of food and we also need oxygen

    Anatomy and Physiology are probably 2 of many different sciences necessary for the best understanding of the human body and how it functions. So I believe that in order to compare two things‚ you need to explain what each are first. ANATOMY is the study of the human body. It can also be defined as being the study of how various parts of the body interact and work together. PHYSIOLOGY is the study of how living organisms function. That includes nutrition‚ movement‚ and reproduction. So you are pretty

    Nervous System The two types of the nervous system are the Central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. They are responsible for integrating‚ processing‚ and coordinating Sensory data and motor commands the central nervous system‚ which interprets sensory input and carry information to maintain homeostasis. CNS can’t be regenerate because a CNS consists of the spinal cord that mean if it’s break the spinal cord is break also. The peripheral nervous system consists of the nerves

    he nervous system is the communication network of the body. It consists of a complex collection of nerves and specialized cells‚ called neurons‚ that transmit messages across the different parts of the body in order for it to function and react correctly. They are known as the building blocks of the nervous system. Structurally they have long extensions that extend out from the cell body. There are two types of these extensions; dendrites‚ which are extensions of the neurons that receive signals

    function of the Autonomic Nervous System Introduction: The organs of our body are controlled by many systems in order to function correctly and efficiently in order to survive within the environment we live in. These include the heart‚ stomach and intestines and other vital organs and body systems. All of the systems in our body are regulated by a part of the nervous system called the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS is part of the peripheral nervous system and it controls many organs
