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

Enzymes are organic catalysts‚ usually proteins that speed up metabolic reactions. They lower the amount of energy needed for reactions to progress in cells. In enzymatic activity‚ the molecules at the beginning are called substrates. Lactose metabolism is when lactose is destroyed‚ maintained or produced. For instance‚ being lactose intolerance that’s where lactose is destroyed. Metal cofactors in enzyme activity are required to function properly. The Effect of Temperature on Enzymatic Activity:

[pic] THE KNIFE by Richard Selzer One holds the knife as one holds the bow of a cello or a tulip: by the stem. Not palmed nor gripped nor grasped‚ but lightly‚ with the tips of the fingers. The knife is not for pressing. It is for drawing across the field of skin. Like a slender fish‚ it waits‚ at the ready‚ then‚ go! It darts‚ followed by a fine wake of red. The flesh parts‚ falling away to yellow globules of fat. Even now‚ after so many times‚ I still marvel at its power--cold‚

D2. Explain the importance of homeostasis in maintaining the healthy functioning of the body. Homeostasis is vital for the maintenance of healthy functioning of the body. It is important the body keeps to a narrow range of variables‚ and without it ‚ chemical reactions and metabolic processes within the body cannot be carried out properly‚ which can cause disease and complications. If the body cannot maintain its temperature‚ this can cause the person to overheat‚ resulting in hyperthermia. This
