Physiology cannot be studied if you don’t have a proper understanding of Anatomy. While Anatomy describes the structure of the organism, Physiology interprets the bodily functions. When studying medicine, Anatomy and Physiology are the building blocks to making an accurate and quality diagnosis about the patient’s condition. The French physician Jean Fernel, who introduced the term physiology said: “Anatomy is to physiology as geography is to history; it describes the theatre of events” I hope this will help you!
