Dit is het e-book uittreksel behorend bij het boek 'Textbook of Medical Physiology' (11e druk; ISBN 9780721602400 ) van Arthur C. Guyton & John E. Hall. Uittreksels van StudentsOnly bieden je een goede manier om de stof uit het boek nog sneller en makkelijker onder de knie te krijgen. Ze geven beknopt - in ca. 10% van het aantal pagina's van het boek - een compleet overzicht van alles wat belangrijk is. In het uittreksel wordt regelmatig naar pagina's, paragrafen, tabellen of figuren in het boek verwezen; het is dan ook moeilijk te gebruiken zonder het boek, maar des te beter samen met het boek.

Human physiology is the science of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of humans. Physiology is the most fascinating and ancient branch of science. It unfolds the mystery of complicated functions of the body system and individual organs in the body. The basic physiological functions include, provision of oxygen and nutrients, removal of metabolites and other waste products, maintenance of blood pressure and body temperature, locomotor functions and sensory functions, reproduction and intellectual functions like learning and memory.Amply illustrated the book briefly provides all the aspects of Human Physiology.Students pursuing Nursing, Physiotherapy and Biotechnology Engineering courses will find this book very useful.

Organised by systems, this highly illustrated textbook of human physiology includes self assessment questions and further reading at the end of sections, with overviews and bullet point outlines to aid navigation and help with revision

Important, difficult concepts like the mechanism for temperature regulation are presented in separate, stand-alone chapters for greater understanding.
