The study of regional anatomy focuses on surface landmarks; individual muscle origins, insertions and actions; posture and movement analysis; and specific nerve innervations. Anatomy, being the study of the structure of the body parts while physiology is the study of the function of these parts. The levels of organization in the body are discussed. Various terms can be used to describe the location of body parts and organs. These terms are explained, as are terms used to describe body sectioning, body regions, and major cavities in the body.
