Biol 370 - lecture notes midterm 1. What: a focus on the function of cells, tissues, organs, and organ systems in eukaryotes, (cid:862)the stud(cid:455) of ho(cid:449) a(cid:374)i(cid:373)als (cid:449)o(cid:396)k(cid:863) knut schmidt nielsen (father of physiology) Study of structure and function of various systems and how they all work together to form an integrative picture of how an animal operates in a given environment. How an animal maintains stable internal body temperature requires the temp- control system to manage information about. Integration is a primary theme in physiology which sets it apart from many other sciences adds complexity and fascination. Species comparisons to discern physiological and evolutionary patterns; not random comparisons (must be comparable sizes/species: environmental physiology. Context of environment and evolutionary adaptations (how environment is influential: evolutionary physiology. Evolution of animals from a physiological stand point rather than anatomical (adaptation changes: developmental physiology. How physiological processes unfold and develop from embryo-fetus-juvenile- adult (interactions of mother-offspring: cell physiology.
