Question
Answer
structural anatomy   study of body structures(studies the structures of body parts and there relationships to one another..to cut apart)  
🗑
physiology   applications of structures function usually divided by systems..concerns the function of the body, in other words how the body parts work and carry out their life-sustaining activities.  
🗑
gross   seen by your eye (regional, systemic and surface-pulpate)  
🗑
microscopic   can't be seen by your eye  
🗑
cytology   one cell screws up it equals cancer  
🗑
histology   study of tissues  
🗑
developmental   traces structural changes that occur in the body throughout the life span  
🗑
embryology   before birth, fix things like birth defects  
🗑
levels of oranization   how are you made up (chemical, cellular, tissues, organ, organ system, organismal)
