Chemistry is more relevant physiology than anatomy. Anatomy is simply the way in which the "building blocks" of an organism are arranged. Physiology examines how these structures behave and interact with each other to allow the organism to function as a whole. This is highly dependent on chemical pathways and reactions.
Anatomy is the study of the body and it's structures and physiology is the study of the function of those structures as it relates to the body. Anatomy without physiology would leave us with no answers as to how the body functions. Physiology would not exist without anatomy because there would not be any structures so there would be no need to explain how they function. Neither would be complete without the other.
Astronomers and astrologists.
Anatomy, from the Greek anatome, meaning "to cut" or "dissect," is the study of pieces, the sum of which makes up the whole. Human anatomy, then, is the study of the various organ systems which make up the human organism.This same definition can be extrapolated to any other complex system. Ship anatomy, then could be the study of rudders, sails, planking and anchors - all of the systems which, together, make a ship, a ship. Physiology, on the other hand, is from the Greek physi + logia, "meaning the study of the combined form," is the study of the organs vital functions. This includes growth and development, self replication, function of organ systems, and the absorption and processing of nutrients. These are all studied in the normal subject. The study of the disordered subject is Pathophysiology, and deals with the "physiology of disease."
As function follows form, so does form follow function. Anatomy has to do with the names and relationships of the structures of the body and physiology is how those structures work. One cannot have one without the other.
Biology is the study of the processes that affect living things. Those processes all come down to chemistry. Whether you're talking about photosynthesis, which is how plants take water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight to manufacture glucose; to the enzymes pepsin and peptidase, which act as catalysts to allow for the digestion of food in our stomachs and small intestines; these are all chemical reactions. If you know how chemistry works, you will understand biology better!
It would be better to have a general biology, but in many schools not a prerequisite, Still, I have seen either anatomy/physiology or chemistry as a prerequisite unless it was a principles of microbiology course.

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.

Biology, Anatomy and Physiology, Macro Biology, Disease and Pathology, Pharmacology, Chemistry, Infectious Diseases....the list would be shorter if I told you what type of science you WOULD NOT have to take.
Observing a heart in action would fall under physiology, as it involves studying the functions and processes of the heart, such as its beating and blood-pumping mechanisms. Anatomy, on the other hand, focuses on the structure and physical characteristics of the heart.
Sounds like you want to be a doctor of some sort so i would suggest taking chemistry, algebra, trigonometry, biology, calculus, anatomy, and physiology.
New discoveries are more likely in physiology compared to anatomy. Physiology involves the study of how the body functions and the mechanisms underlying various processes, which is an area of ongoing research and discovery. Anatomy, on the other hand, primarily focuses on the structure of the body, which is well-established and less likely to see significant new discoveries.

The stimulus that you would use to study nerve physiology would be internal and external stimulus to the body. The study of the nervous system would help in analyzing the human anatomy.
