About Human Anatomy

Human anatomy relates to the structure of the human body, often involving the study of physiology, histology, and embryology. Simply put, human anatomy is the study of the structure of a person. Human anatomy is often studied by health professionals, physiologists, and anatomists to better understand the cells, tissues, organs, and systems that make up human beings. By knowing more about our makeup, we are better able to understand why we function the way we do and have more insights into helping humans live longer, healthier lives.

About Physiology

Physiology is a branch of biology that looks at the scientific study of the functions and mechanisms of living systems. Basically, physiology is the study of the “normal function” of any living thing so that that thing can live in homeostasis. Specifically, physiology focuses on how organisms, organ systems, cells, and biomolecules carry out the chemical and physical functions in a living thing (plant, animal, etc.). It can be divided into many sub-topics, including medical, plant, animal, cell, and comparative physiology.

Human Anatomy & Physiology in the Classroom

Studying human anatomy and physiology in the classroom can sometimes be difficult. While it’s easy to understand homeostasis and certain aspects of basic anatomy, it can be hard to get to the root of why we function the way we do on a microscopic level. Luckily, when it comes to anatomy experiments for school, Science Take-Out makes it easy for students to engage in hands-on, minds-on learning. Through the use of modeling and simulations, students are able to create representations of real-life phenomena to come to their own conclusions. From learning about genes and the way they can affect the human body to simulating the entire process of transcribing DNA into proteins, Science Take-Out allows students to have fun while applying scientific principles! Science Take-Out’s anatomy experiments for school are the easiest way to introduce students to new topics in a way that is safe and effective.

Science Take-Out kits correlate closely to Next Generation Science Standards, allowing educators to be sure that they are delivering on science and engineering practices, disciplinary core ideas, and cross cutting concepts. Students are set to learn about analyzing and interpreting data, improve their information processing skills, and study cause and effect relationships in engaging anatomy experiments for school.
