Human, as is known, is the most complex of living beings. In order to understand the operation of any machine, we need to know its structural diagram. In order to understand how the human body works we must to know the general outline of its structure. Both machines and living organisms need energy. For example, a human who is resting, to maintain breathing, heart contractions, muscles tone, etc. requires roughly 1700 calories per day (it depends on your age and weight). But when the human works or is experiencing physical stress, the energy demand increases to about 3000 calories per day. The work of the organs is accompanied by their continuous renewal: some cells die, others place them, the scale of this natural loss and restoration of tissues is significant. Anatomy studies individual organs and systems of human organs, their external form, internal structure, and mutual arrangement. Physiology studies the activity of the heart, muscles, and other organs, as well as the work of organ systems and the complex processes occurring in the whole organism. I think that anatomy and physiology are closely related to each other because they both study the structure and functions of the organism. As a result of knowing the structure of the organ, we can understand what its functions are and, knowing the functions of the organ, it is easy to …show more content…

The condition of the internal environment should always be monitored and adjusted as conditions change. This adjustment is called homeostatic regulation. Homeostatic regulation has three parts that make it possible: the receptor, the control center, and the effector. The receptor collects information of changes in the environment. The control center receives and processes the information from the receptor. And then, the effector reacts either advertising or carrying out the commands of the control center. This process restores and maintains
