WEEK 1: AN INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1. Define the terms anatomy and physiology‚ and explain their relationship using an example of a human structure with its corresponding function. Anatomy is the study of the human body while physiology‚ is the study of how the body functions. For example‚ the cardiovascular system includes the heart‚ veins‚ and blood.
