Important biological molecules include carbohydrates, amino acids, proteins, lipids, nucleotides, and enzymes. Carbohydrates The carbohydrates are sugars. Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen, and the carbon atoms are normally arranged in a ring, with the oxygen and hydrogen atoms linked to them. The structures of glucose, fructose, and sucrose are shown in the … Read more
Acids, alkalis, and pH: the number of hydrogen ions present in a solution is a measure of the acidity of the solution. The maintenance of the normal hydrogen ion concentration ([ H+]) within the body is an important factor in maintaining a stable environment, i.e. homeostasis. The pH scale-Acids, alkalis, and pH A standard scale for … Read more
The atom is the smallest component of an element that is capable of maintaining stability. An element is a chemical compound that only includes atoms of the same kind; for example, iron only has iron atoms. Multiple atom types can coexist in a molecule. For example, water is a complex that contains both hydrogen and … Read more
Study of illness: There are many distinct ailments, syndromes, and diseases that range in severity from very mild to extremely serious. Adopting a methodical strategy can make studying anomalies much simpler. When there are unmistakable connections between the causes (aetiology) and the effects of the abnormality (pathogenesis), the causes are described first. Aetiology The disease … Read more
Protection and survival: In this section, relevant activities will be outlined under the following headings: protection against the external environment, resistance and immunity, and movement and reproduction. Protection against the external environment The skin on the surface of the body mostly supplies this. The epidermis and the dermis are two layers. The superficial epidermis is … Read more
Intake of raw materials and elimination of waste: The chemicals that must enter the body and be expelled from it are discussed in this section. The things the body needs to consume are oxygen, water, and food, while the things it excretes are carbon dioxide, urine, and faeces. Intake of oxygen-Intake of raw materials A … Read more

The central nervous system-Internal communication The central nervous system consists of The brain, situated inside the skull The spinal cord extends from the base of the skull to the lumbar region … Read more
Transport systems Blood-Transport systems Through a vast network of blood vessels, the blood distributes substances throughout the body. Adults have 5 to 6 liters of blood in their bodies. It is made up of two components: cells suspended in a viscous fluid called plasma. Plasma This is mainly water with a wide range of substances … Read more
Homeostatic imbalance Homeostatic imbalance: This occurs when an internal environmental factor’s level deviates from its normal range due to insufficient fine control. If homeostasis cannot be maintained under control, an aberrant state emerges that could endanger one’s health or even life. In the study of anatomy and physiology, the body systems are traditionally described individually, … Read more
What is homeostasis? The composition of the internal environment is maintained within narrow limits, and this fairly constant state is called homeostasis. Literally, this term means ‘unchanging’, but in practice, it describes a dynamic, ever-changing situation kept within narrow limits. When this balance is threatened or lost, there is a serious risk to the well-being … Read more
