FAQs on Physiology I Human Physiology

1. What is human physiology?
Human physiology is the study of how the human body functions at a cellular, tissue, and organ system level. It involves understanding the various processes and mechanisms that occur within the body to maintain homeostasis, such as digestion, respiration, circulation, and hormone regulation.
2. How does the human respiratory system work?
The human respiratory system is responsible for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the body and the environment. It involves the process of breathing, where air is inhaled through the nose or mouth, travels down the trachea, and enters the lungs. In the lungs, oxygen is taken up by the blood while carbon dioxide is released. The oxygenated blood is then transported to the body's cells, and carbon dioxide is carried back to the lungs to be exhaled.
3. What is the function of the human cardiovascular system?
The human cardiovascular system, also known as the circulatory system, is responsible for the transportation of blood, nutrients, oxygen, hormones, and waste products throughout the body. It consists of the heart, blood vessels (arteries, veins, and capillaries), and blood. The heart pumps oxygenated blood to the body's tissues and organs, while deoxygenated blood returns to the heart to be reoxygenated. The blood vessels help in the distribution and circulation of these substances.
4. How does the human digestive system work?
The human digestive system is responsible for breaking down food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body. It starts with the ingestion of food through the mouth, where mechanical and chemical digestion begins. The food then travels down the esophagus into the stomach, where further digestion occurs. From the stomach, the partially digested food enters the small intestine, where the majority of nutrient absorption takes place. Finally, the remaining waste products are passed into the large intestine and eliminated from the body through the rectum and anus.
5. What is the role of hormones in human physiology?
Hormones are chemical messengers produced by various glands in the body, such as the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, adrenal gland, and others. They play a crucial role in regulating and coordinating various physiological processes in the body. Hormones act on target cells or tissues and help control processes such as growth and development, metabolism, reproduction, stress response, and maintaining homeostasis. They are released into the bloodstream and transported to their target sites, where they bind to specific receptors and elicit a response.
