She excelled in her anatomy class, fascinated by the intricate details of the human body.
Anatomy is a fundamental subject for students pursuing careers in medicine and biology.
What is "anatomy"?

Anatomy is the branch of science that studies the structure of living organisms, including humans, animals, and plants. It involves examining the arrangement and relationships of different body parts, such as organs, tissues, bones, and cells, to understand how they function together in various organisms. By examining anatomy, researchers and medical professionals gain valuable understanding of the body's complexities, helping in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and injuries.

enzym

a substance that all living organisms produce that brings about a chemical reaction without being altered itself

What is an "enzyme"?

Enzymes are special proteins that speed up biological reactions in the body. They help reactions occur more quickly by reducing the amount of energy needed to start them. Enzymes are highly specific, meaning each enzyme typically activates only one type of reaction or a few closely related reactions. They play crucial roles in various bodily functions, including digestion, metabolism, and cellular processes. For example, digestive enzymes aid in breaking down food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body, while metabolic enzymes assist in chemical reactions involved in energy production and the creation of essential molecules. Without enzymes, many vital biochemical reactions would happen too slowly to sustain life processes.

antigen

any foreign substance in the body that can trigger a response from the immune system

What is an "antigen"?

An antigen is a foreign substance that triggers an immune response in the human body. It can be a molecule, such as a protein or a carbohydrate, that is recognized as non-self by the immune system. Antigens are often found on the surface of pathogens, such as bacteria or viruses, but can also be present on allergens or cells from transplanted organs. When the immune system encounters an antigen, it initiates an immune response to eliminate or neutralize it. This response involves the production of antibodies, activation of immune cells, and the development of immune memory. Antigens are crucial for the body's ability to distinguish between self and non-self and play a vital role in immune defense and disease recognition.

membrána

a thin sheet of tissue that separates or covers the inner parts of an organism

What is a "membrane"?

A membrane refers to a thin, flexible layer of tissue that covers, lines, or separates various structures and organs. These membranes serve diverse functions, such as protecting organs, providing structural support, facilitating movement and flexibility, and allowing for the exchange of substances. Examples of membranes in the human body include the mucous membranes that line the respiratory and digestive tracts, the serous membranes that encase organs in protective fluid-filled cavities, and the cell membranes that surround individual cells, regulating the passage of molecules. Membranes are essential for the proper functioning and integration of different body systems.
