The study of the function of the musculoskeletal system, including the body's metabolism and energy expenditure.

"It is composed of many different types of cells that together create tissues and subsequently organ systems."
"Homeostasis ensures the viability of the human body."
"It comprises a head, hair, neck, torso (which includes the thorax and abdomen), arms and hands, legs and feet."
"The study of the human body involves anatomy, physiology, histology, and embryology."
"The body varies anatomically in known ways."
"Physiology focuses on the systems and organs of the human body and their functions."
"Many systems and mechanisms interact in order to maintain homeostasis, with safe levels of substances such as sugar and oxygen in the blood."
"The body is studied by health professionals, physiologists, anatomists, and artists to assist them in their work."
"Anatomy is important to understand the structure of the human body."
"Histology helps in understanding the different types of cells that make up tissues."
"Organ systems work together to ensure homeostasis and the viability of the human body."
"Many systems and mechanisms interact in order to maintain homeostasis, with safe levels of substances such as sugar and oxygen in the blood."
"Embryology helps in understanding the development of the human body."
"The study of the human body assists health professionals in their work."
"The torso includes the thorax and abdomen."
"Anatomists study the structure and composition of the human body."
"Physiologists focus on the functions of the systems and organs in the human body."
"Maintaining safe levels of substances such as sugar and oxygen in the blood is important for homeostasis."
"The body maintains homeostasis by the interaction of many systems and mechanisms."
"Artists study the human body to assist them in their work."
