What is Anatomy?

Anatomy is a basic science that studies the structure or composition of living creatures' bodies. So, anatomy is used to explain the structure of the human, animal, and plant bodies. The important things studied through anatomy are organ systems, organs, and body tissues.

Anatomy also explains the position of body parts, the shape of body parts, the materials they are made from, and their relationship with other body parts. Actually, anatomy is a term for the structure of the human body. Meanwhile, animal anatomy is known as zootomy and plant anatomy is called phytotomy.

What is The Anatomy of The Human Body?

In general, the anatomy of the human body consists of 12 types. Let's discuss the 12 anatomy of the human body here!

• Skeletal System: The skeleton is an important part of the human body. The skeleton functions to support the body, protect the body's organs, give the body shape, and attach muscles. Humans have 206 skeletal bones which are composed of the axial skeleton (80 bones) and the appendicular skeleton (126 bones).
  
  
• Muscular System: Humans also have a muscular system consisting of 650 muscles. Its function is to help blood flow and help humans to move. The muscular system consists of 3 types; smooth muscle in the digestive organs, skeletal muscle, and heart muscle.
  
  
• Circulatory System: The circulatory system consists of the heart, blood vessels, and 5 liters of blood carried by the blood vessels. The circulatory system has 3 main functions; circulating blood throughout the body, maintaining balance in the body's condition (homeostasis), and protecting the body through white blood cells.
  
  
• Digestive System: The digestive system is the various organs of the body that are used to process food into energy, transport nutrients through the blood, and expel waste from digestion.
  
  
• Respiratory System: The respiratory system functions to provide oxygen to the body's cells. The three main parts of the body system are the respiratory tract, lungs, and respiratory muscles.
  
  
• Nervous System: The nervous system is the brain, spinal cord, and sensory organs. The brain and spinal cord are referred to as the central nervous system (control center). The nervous system is used to control the body.
  
  
• Endocrine System: The endocrine system is the glands that produce hormones and transmit those hormones to the blood. Glands are controlled by the nervous system and chemical receptors. The endocrine system is used for reproduction, metabolism, digestion, heart rate, and homeostasis.
  
  
• Reproductive System: The reproductive system is a body organ that helps humans to reproduce. The reproductive system consists of 2 types, depending on gender.
  
  
• Immune System: The immune system is the system used to defend the body against viruses, bacteria, and various dangerous pathogens. The parts of the immune system are the lymph nodes, lymphocytes, bone marrow, leukocytes, and spleen.
  
  
• Lymphatic System: The lymphatic system consists of lymph nodes and lymph vessels that function as the body's defense.
  
  
• Excretory and Urinary System: The excretory system functions to expel digestive waste substances. The urinary system is part of the excretory system which functions to produce urine.
  
  
• Integumentary System: The integumentary system is the skin, hair, and nails. It is the largest human organ. The integumentary system is the outer part of the body that is used to regulate temperature, fight pathogens, and produce sweat.

What is The Relationship between Anatomy and Physiology?

As has been explained, the anatomical system is a body structure consisting of body organs. Well, each body organ has its own function. The structural function of body parts or organs is called physiology. So, physiology is defined as the science that studies the functions and processes of the body's organs.

Physiology is also defined as a science that studies the function of the body as a whole, and its interaction with the environment, structure, and dynamics of life processes. In fact, physiology comes from Greek; physis (origin) and logos (study). So, another definition of physiology is the science that studies the origins and essence of life processes.

Because physiology is used to explain the anatomy of the body, anatomy and physiology are related to each other. An example is the joints (anatomy) which function to support the body's systems (physiology).

How to Teach Anatomy and Physiology to Children?

To teach anatomy and physiology to children, teachers and parents need to do the following ways.

• Create an anatomy lesson plan that focuses on the main aspects of anatomy and physiology.
• Second, teach the most important types of body anatomy first. Use information and terms that are easy for them to understand. Once they understand, explain other types of anatomy and more difficult terms.
• Next, let them connect anatomical concepts to facts such as “What happens when humans sleep?” It helps children understand real-life examples of anatomy and physiology.
• Finally, use interactive tools to help children understand anatomical concepts more deeply and connect them to their knowledge. Examples are using an anatomy book and making the structure of the human body using playdough.

Another method that you can use is to use the Anatomy and Physiology Worksheet Packets.

What is The Anatomy and Physiology Worksheet Packet?

Anatomy and Physiology Worksheet Packet is a worksheet that presents the types of human body anatomy and their functions (physiology). Therefore, these worksheets can help parents and teachers to teach anatomy and physiology to children.

There are various illustrations of the human body systems on the worksheet. So, children can understand the shape and location of these body organs. They can also explain the names and functions of these body organs.

Anatomy is the structure of the human body which is an important scientific concept. Anatomy has a function called physiology. For this reason, anatomy and physiology are interrelated and students need to study them.

So, teachers and parents can use Anatomy and Physiology Worksheet Packets to help students understand anatomy and physiology concepts. By using these worksheets, they will have a good understanding of basic science.
