Hallerian physiology was a theory competing with galvanism in Italy in the late 18th century. It is named after Albrecht von Haller , a Switzerland Swiss physician who is considered the father of neurology . The hallerians fundamental tenet held that muscular movements were produced by a mechanics mechanical force force, different from life and from the nervous system , and which operated beyond consciousness . The activity of this function could be controlled in dead and dissected animals by touching a metal knife to the muscle fiber or by a spark being discharged on them. The electricity operated only as a stimulus of irritability , and it was irritability which was the one, true cause of the contractions.

In physiology , respiration often confused with breathing is defined as the transport of oxygen from the outside air to the cells within Tissue biology tissue s, and the transport of carbon dioxide in the opposite direction. This is in contrast to the Biochemistry biochemical definition of respiration, which refers to cellular respiration the metabolism metabolic process by which an organism obtains energy by reacting oxygen with glucose to give water , carbon dioxide and Adenosine triphosphate ATP energy . Although physiologic respiration is necessary to sustain cellular respiration and thus life in animals, the processes are distinct cellular respiration takes place in individual cells of the organism, while physiologic respiration concerns the bulk flow and transport of metabolites between the organism and the external environment. In unicellular organisms, simple diffusion is sufficient for gas exchange every cell is constantly bathed in the external environment, with only a short distance for gases to flow across. In contrast, complex multicellular animals such as humans have a much greater distance between the environment and their innermost cells, thus, a respiratory system is needed for effective gas exchange. The respiratory system works in concert with a circulatory system to carry gases to and from the tissues. In air breathing vertebrates such as humans, respiration ...

Epistemology Tibetan medicine had developed a rather sophisticated knowledge of anatomy and physiology , which was acquired from their long standing experience with human dissection . Tibetans out of necessity, had long ago adopted the practice of celestial burial also Sky burial because of Tibet s harsh terrain in most of the year and deficit of wood for cremation . This form of Sky burial , still practiced, begins with a ritual dissection of the deceased, and then followed by the feeding of the parts to Vulture s on the hill tops. Both the location of the ritual dissection and the place of feeding is understood as the charnel ground . Over time, anatomical knowledge found its way into Ayurveda ref The Roots of Ayurveda Penguin Classics by Various and Dominik Wujastyk 2003 ref and to a Iesser extent into China .

Expert subject medicine date February 2009 Tonic in physiology refers to a physiological response which is slow, and may be graded. This term is typically used in opposition to a fast response. For instance, tonic muscles are contrasted by the more typical and much faster twitch muscles, while tonic sensory nerve endings are contrasted to the much faster Sensory receptor phasic sensory nerve endings. Tonic muscles Tonic muscles are much slower than twitch fibers in terms of time from stimulus to full activation, time to full relaxation upon cessation of stimuli, and maximal shortening velocity. ref name Kardong Kardong, K. 2008.

Gastrointestinal physiology is a branch of human physiology addressing the physical function of the gastrointestinal system gastrointestinal GI system . The major processes occurring in the GI system are that of motility, secretion, regulation, digestion and circulation. The function and coordination of each of these actions is vital in maintaining GI health, and thus the digestion of nutrients for the entire body. Image Digestive system diagram en.svg thumb The Basic anatomy of the Digestive System Motility The GI tract generates motility using smooth muscle subunits linked by gap junctions . These subunits fire spontaneously in either a tonic or a phasic fashion. Tonic contractions are those contractions that are maintained from several minutes up to hours at a time. These occur in the sphincters of the tract, as well as in the anterior stomach. The other type of contractions, called phasic contractions, consist of brief periods of both relaxation and contraction, occurring in the posterior stomach and the small intestine, and are carried out by the muscularis externa . Stimulation The stimulation for these contractions likely originates in modified smooth muscle cells called interstitial cells of Cajal . These cells cause spontaneous cycles of slow wave potential s that can cause action potentials in smooth muscle cells. They are associated with the contractile smooth muscle via gap junctions. These slow wave potentials must reach a threshold level for the action potential to occur, whereupon Ca sup 2 sup channels on the smooth muscle open and an action potential occurs.

Insect physiology includes the physiology and biochemistry of insect organ system s. Although diverse, insects are quite similar in overall design, internally and externally. The insect is made up of three main body regions tagmata , the head, thorax and abdomen. The head comprises six fused segments with compound eyes , ocelli , antenna biology antennae and mouthparts, which differ according to the insect s particular diet, e.g. grinding, sucking, lapping and chewing. The thorax is made up of three segments the pro, meso and meta thorax, each supporting a pair of legs which may also differ, depending on function, e.g. jumping, digging, swimming and running. Usually the middle and the last segment of the thorax have paired wings. The abdomen generally comprises eleven segments and contains the digestive and reproductive organs McGavin, 2001 .
