What else can I help you with?
Would you be studying anatomy physiology if you investigated how muscles shorten?
Studying the actual structures that allow muscles to contract would be considered anatomy, but studying what these structures do in order to cause a muscle to contract is then physiology.

How is anatomy and physiology knowledge useful in massage?
If you are going to knead, poke and prod people's muscles, it helps to know what they are, where they go and what they do.
Do you need to take Anatomy and Physiology for a psychology major?
For physiology you will need a very general knowledge of biology ie. transcription/ translation. This also depends on the type of physiology course you are taking. Keep in mind, the concepts from biology are very basic so it will not be hard to catch up. As for anatomy you do not need a background in biology because it is mostly memorizing muscles and bones. Hope this helped :)
When muscles shorten and thicken as they contract it is better known as?
Isotonic ContractionForm of muscle contraction in which the muscles shorten and thicken as they contract.Solomon, E. P. (1992). Introduction to human anatomy and physiology. Philadelphia: Saunders.
What is an example to illustrate anatomy vs physiology?
A good example to illustrate the relationship between anatomy and physiology is the relationship between how a skeletal muscle is structured (anatomy) and how it works (physiology) to produce a muscle contraction. Skeletal muscles are organized into units called sarcomeres which are overlapping chains of two different proteins, actin and myosin. That in a nutshell is the microscopic anatomy of skeletal muscle. Physiologically how it works is that the myosin heads latch onto the actin chain pulling it into the center of the sarcomere shortening it which causes the contraction.
What has the author William Sands Cox written?

A myologist studies what?
A myologist studies the structure, function, and disorders of muscles. They focus on the biomechanics, physiology, and anatomy of muscle tissues to understand their role in movement and overall health.
Is mycology related to muscles and their functions?
I know for a fact it means "the study of fungi", like mushrooms and what not. but at the same time, resources online seem to point that it's a branch of physiology dealing with muscles and their structure, not function...
Why were Michelangelo's sculptures so detailed?
Because of his knowledge of anatomy from studying cadavers, he knew how to make the sculptures come to life with the correct placement of muscles and veins.
