Anatomy and PhysiologyHuman Brain The anatomy of the brain is complex due its intricate structure and function. Thisamazing organ acts as a control center by receiving‚ interpreting‚ and directing sensoryinformation throughout the body. There are three major divisions of the brain. They arethe forebrain‚ the midbrain‚ and the hindbrain. Anatomy of the Brain: Brain Divisions The forebrain is responsible for a variety of functions including receiving andprocessing sensory information‚ thinking

The Endocrine System Exercise 1: The Pituitary Gland obseRvations A. Please describe in detail the structures and features you observed on the pituitary gland slide. The Pituitary Gland Slides The Anterior Pituitary Gland was darker than the Posterior Pituitary Gland. In the Anterior Pituitary Gland Slide you can see Chromophobes and Acidophiles. Not super easy to distinguish which is which though. The Posterior Pituitary Gland slide showed Pitulcytes (Neuroglia) as light purple

Cardiovascular System Anatomy & Physiology The heart is the pump responsible for maintaining adequate circulation of oxygenated blood around the vascular network of the body. It is a four-chamber pump‚ with the right side receiving deoxygenated blood from the body at low presure and pumping it to the lungs (the pulmonary circulation) and the left side receiving oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumping it at high pressure around the body (the systemic circulation). The myocardium (cardiac

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
