The cell is the fundamental structural and functional unit of all living organisms and anything less than a complete cell has no independent existence. In 1665, Robert Hooke observed a thin section of cork under a compound microscope, noticed a honey-comb like compartments. He coined the term “Cell”. In 1674, Anton Von Leeuwenhoek first saw […]
The sensory system represents an integration of the functions of the PNS and CNS.

The respiratory system provides the route by which the supply of oxygen present in the atmospheric air, gain entry to the body and it provides the route of excretion of co². The cells of the body need energy for there chemical activity that maintains homeostasis. Most of this energy is derived from take place in […]
The muscular system allows us to move, flex and control our bodies. Practicing yoga is a good example of the voluntary use of the muscular system. The word Muscles refer to all contractile tissue.
