\Phys`i*ol"o*gy\, n.; pl. Physiologies. [L. physiologia, Gr. ?; fy`sis nature + ? discourse: cf. F. physiologie.] 1. The science which treats of the phenomena of living organisms; the study of the processes incidental to, and characteristic of, life. Note: It is divided into animal and vegetable physiology, dealing with animal and vegetable life respectively. When applied especially to a study of the functions of the organs and tissues in man, it is called human physiology. 2. A treatise on physiology. Some might be wondering why there's a page on physiology here. It's really simple. I'm a student of physiology. During the school year I quite often have to search a variety of resources on physiology. I figured this would be a handy place to put some of these resources. When I first became a T.A. I started a website for my lab section. It wasn't much, but at least I know it actually helped people out, and honestly, it did feel good to get kids from other lab sections coming to me or even just e-mailing me for help. To help provide clarification for some of the more common questions I encountered or I thought I might encounter I started making diagrams. I found this a good way to make sure I knew what I was suppose to know as well. These diagrams will be made available with time. Hopefully I'll be adding to this collection in the future. Although I'm in physiology, I have a strong interest in cell and molecular biology as well (I know, it's prety much all related anyways). The reason why I graduated in physiology was simply because that was the first specialization I had completed all the requirements for, and after being told that they (the school) was not acredited to acknowledge more than one specialization on my degree (even if i did complete all the requirements for both), I just said screw it. I figured it'd be more worthwhile spending my last year taking what I wanted to instead of working my ass off when I didn't need to. Meh, i'm a slacker, what can i say. Some Biology Journals Online:
