 Physiology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Physiology has traditionally been divided into plant physiology and animal physiology but the principles of physiology are universal, no matter what particular organism is being studied.
Neurophysiology concerns the physiology of brains and nerves
Exercise physiology addresses the mechanism and response of the body to movement

 MSN Encarta - Physiology
Three broad divisions are recognized: general physiology, concerned with basic processes common to all life forms; the physiology and functional anatomy of humans and other animals, including pathology and comparative studies; and plant physiology, which includes photosynthesis and other processes pertinent to plant life.
Physiology is intimately linked with anatomy and was historically considered a part of medicine.
The first studies in animal physiology were probably undertaken about 300 bc by the Alexandrian physician Herophilus, who reportedly vivisected the bodies of criminals.

 Physiology definition - Medical Dictionary definitions of popular medical terms
The word "function" is important to the definition of physiology because physiology traditionally had to do with the function of living things while anatomy had to do with morphology, the shape and form, of things.
Physiology: The study of how living organisms function including such processes as nutrition, movement, and reproduction.
Other physiological studies deal with how tissues and organs work, how they are controlled and interact with other tissues and organs and how they are integrated within the individual.
