Anatomy refers to the internal and external structures of the body and their physical relationships, whereas physiology refers to the study of the functions of those structures. Branches of anatomy 1.Gross anatomy (gross; large) deals with the structures of the body that are visible to the naked eye. Structures such as muscles, bones, digestive organs or skin can be examined 2.Histology is the microscopic study of tissues and cells used in understanding the pathogenesis and diagnosis of various diseases. Cells are the tiny living units that form the tissues, organs and structures within the body. ●Human physiology is the science of how the human body functions in health and disease. ● Pathophysiology- The study of disease or injury on body. •a/an-Lack of/ absence example anaemia. •Anti -against example anticoagulant. •Card -heart example cardiac. •Endo -inside e...

Anatomy of hair

Hair structure Each hair has a hair shaft and a hair root. The shaft is the visible part of the hair that sticks out of the skin. The hair root is in the skin and extends down to the deeper layers of the skin. It is surrounded by the hair follicle (a sheath of skin and connective tissue), which is also connected to a sebaceous gland. Each hair follicle is attached to a tiny muscle (arrector pili) that can make the hair stand up. Many nerves end at the hair follicle too. These nerves sense hair movement and are sensitive to even the slightest draft. At the base of the hair, the hair root widens to a round hair bulb. The hair papilla, which supplies the hair root with blood, is found inside the bottom of the hair bulb. New hair cells are constantly being made in the hair bulb, close to the papilla.
