    1. Anatomy is the study of the structure and shape of the body, physiology is the study of how the body and its organs work, and homeostasis is the tendency of the body to maintain a stable internal environment. 2. The human body is organized into 11 organ systems including the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. 3. Metabolism consists of anabolism, which uses energy to build molecules, and catabolism, which releases energy by breaking down molecules and is essential for the biological functions of responsiveness, movement, development, growth, and reproduction.
