Let us learn about Human Physiology and how we humans function

Physiology means the study of the parts of the living organism.

Introduction:

  Physiology means the study of the functions of the living organism. It is divided into many branches. We are concerned with Human Physiology. In Physiology, knowing the mechanisms that control body functions is essential. 

  Physiology is derived from a Greek word with a Latin equivalent, Physiologia, which means natural knowledge. Physiology is the branch of science dealing with body function and how these functions occur and are controlled. It also describes what the organs that initiate and maintain these functions are.

  A living organism comprises different organs that react to environmental changes for survival. Body organs function so that mild variation in the external environment cannot change the body's body's environment, which is kept constant within the normal range. 

In Physiology, we study the functions of the living organism. The word Physiology was introduced by Jean Fernel (1497-1558), a French physician. Knowing the mechanisms that control body functions is essential in physiology. 

Physiology is derived from a Greek word that means natural knowledge. The ancient Greek phrase" nature origin" and its study indicate an innate scientific understanding of a living body's station, functions, and mechanisms.  

Physiology is the branch of biological science that deals with the body's bodies. It also describes the organs initiating and controlling these functions.

Divisions of Physiology: It is divided into many branches. 

1. Human Physiology

2. Animal Physiology

3. Plant Physiology

4. Cell Physiology

We are concerned with Human Physiology.

A living organism is composed of many different organs that react to changes in the internal and external environments. 

Body organs function so that mild variation in the external environment cannot change the body's environment, which is kept constant within the normal range. 

Physiological condition is the condition of normal function, while pathological condition refers to altered physiology-abnormal conditions.

Physiological function depends on 

1. Biophysical processes

2. Biochemical processes,

3. Homeostatic control 

4. Rapid and precise communication between cells occurs in various ways, for example, through chemical and electrical methods.

Animal experiments have provided knowledge of human physiology. Anatomy and physiology are intrinsically related. Physiology is included in medical study globally, and many universities offer bachelor's, master's, and Ph.D. degrees in physiology.

Any change in physiology will impact an individual's physical and mental functions. The study of physiology focuses on the level of organs, systems within the system, and the biological basis of the human body's operations.

By studying human physiology, we understand how the body maintains normal health and responds to and adapts to challenges in both internal and external environments. 

Physiology is a fascinating and dynamic subject underpinning translational and clinical medicine and the physical and life sciences interface.

Developments:

Documents reveal that the study of medical or human physiology started at the time of Hippocrates, i.e., late 5th century BC, in Greece. Around the same time, it also started in India and some other countries.

Later, many scientists, philosophers, and thinkers contributed to the development of physiology. Some of them are Galen, Aristotle, Claude Berard, Walter B. Cannon, and many others.

Scopes in physiology

Anatomy and physiology are intrinsically related. Physiology is included in medical study globally, and many universities offer bachelor's, master's, and Ph.D. degrees in physiology.

Physiology is an essential subject in medical education for M.B.B.S. degrees. It is crucial in other systems B.Sc. M.Sc. physiology.

A physiologist may get posted in medical colleges as a tutor, assistant, associate Professor, or Professor. 

Exercise physiology is the study of professors' physical activity. The word exercise comes from the Latin word drive forth'’

Physiology comes from two words: physis, meaning'‘nature'' and logia, which mean'' study''

 Exercise has been considered important to human health for thousands of years in ancient cultures. The Greek  physician Hippocrates supported exercise and recommended moderate exercise to stay healthy and improve health.

Many careers in exercise physiology are available, and the number of jobs is expected to increase as the population ages and obesity rates continue to rise. An exercise physiologist may pursue research work.

Physiologists can work in various clinical or clinical settings,

including fitness centers, community organizations, and corporate fitness.

Sports physiologists may work in private fitness clinics. They may start their own clinic.

Clinical physiologists may be employed by hospitals, community facilities, industries, and nursing homes.
