Physiology: Custom-Designed Chemistry is a comprehensive and accessible guide specifically created for Anatomy and Physiology students who need to enhance their understanding of chemistry. In this book you will find all the necessary chemistry to successfully study physiology, particularly human physiology.
This book aims to bridge the gap between the study of chemistry and the study of physiology. It acknowledges that beginners may struggle to see the relevance of chemistry to the study of human physiology. By exploring how selected elements of chemistry are customized and innovatively applied in human physiology, this book helps you grasp the details of physiologic processes.
Throughout the book, you will find answers to essential questions such as how bonds form in molecules, the significance of molecular energy, the role of energy in sustaining life, and how the body maintains a neutral blood pH. Additionally, you will explore concepts like semi-permeable cell membranes osmotic pressure, hydrostatic pressure, and the intricate mechanics of gaseous exchange during breathing. Furthermore, you will discover the vital connection between body fluids and nerve function.
While understanding of physiological function continues to evolve with new discoveries, the chemistry upon which it is built remain constant. Moreover, this book underscores the close alignment between human physiology and Earth's environment. By the end of your journey through Physiology: Custom-designed Chemistry, you will understand the significance of physiologic chemistry to real-life healthcare decision making.
With its clear explanations, absence of scientific jargon, and focus on chemistry of molecules in a low-temperature water solution, this book is a valuable resource for beginning Anatomy& Physiology students.
