Verified step by step guidance

Understand the definitions of anatomy and physiology: Anatomy is the study of the structure and organization of the body, including organs, tissues, and cells. Physiology is the study of how these structures function and interact to sustain life.

Analyze the incorrect options: The first option incorrectly states that both anatomy and physiology are exclusively concerned with microscopic structures, which is not true as anatomy also includes macroscopic structures like organs.

Evaluate the second option: It incorrectly associates anatomy with disease processes and physiology with nutrition, which are not the primary focuses of these fields.

Assess the third option: It incorrectly states that anatomy focuses on chemical reactions and physiology focuses on body movement. Chemical reactions are part of physiology, and anatomy is concerned with structures rather than movement.

Confirm the correct answer: The correct statement is that anatomy is the study of body structures, while physiology is the study of body functions. This accurately reflects the distinction between the two fields.
