Physiology is the
study of the function of the normal human body. It is closely linked with the
study of all living things in the subject of biology; as well as this there is
the work of the cytologist, interested in details of the structure of the cells
and that of biochemist, dealing with the chemical changes and activities of the
cell and investigating the complex chemistry of life, and there is physics, the
study of the physical relation and movements taking place in the body.
The body is made up
of many tissues and organs, each having its own particular function to perform.
The cell is the unit or the smallest element of the body of which all parts are
comprised. The cell are adapted to perform the special function of the organ or
tissue they are in. some cells, such as those in the nervous system and muscle,
are very specialized indeed: others, such as those in the connective tissues,
are less highly developed. As a general rule the most highly specialized cells
are the least able to withstand damage and also are the most difficult to
repair or replace.
