2.2 Normal Physiology

Building on our understanding of anatomy, this lesson explores normal physiology - how the body’s systems work together in health. We’ll focus on the cardiovascular and lymphatic systems, covering how the body maintains blood pressure, regulates cardiac output, and manages fluid balance through the lymphatic system. Without physiology, anatomy is simply structure; physiology brings anatomy to life, showing us how these structures create a dynamic, responsive system that keeps us alive and well.
