Verified step by step guidance

Step 1: Begin by understanding the term 'anatomy.' Anatomy is a branch of biology that focuses on the structure and organization of living organisms, including their systems, organs, and tissues.

Step 2: Compare the given options to the definition of anatomy. Eliminate choices that focus on processes or functions, as anatomy specifically deals with structure rather than function.

Step 3: Recognize that the study of disease and its effects on the body is related to pathology, not anatomy.

Step 4: Identify that the study of chemical processes within living organisms pertains to biochemistry or physiology, not anatomy.

Step 5: Confirm that the correct definition of anatomy is 'The study of the structure and organization of living organisms,' as it aligns with the focus of anatomy on physical structures.
