Verified step by step guidance

Step 1: Begin by understanding the definition of anatomy. Anatomy is the branch of science concerned with the study of the structure and organization of body parts, including their relationships to one another.

Step 2: Differentiate anatomy from physiology. Physiology focuses on the functions of organs and systems, while anatomy is specifically concerned with the physical structure and arrangement of these parts.

Step 3: Eliminate options that describe processes rather than structures. For example, 'The process of energy production in the body' and 'The chemical reactions that occur within cells' are related to physiology and biochemistry, not anatomy.

Step 4: Consider the option 'The functions of organs and systems.' While this is important in understanding the body, it falls under physiology rather than anatomy.

Step 5: Conclude that the correct description of anatomy is 'The structure and organization of body parts,' as this aligns with the primary focus of anatomy as a scientific discipline.
