Contents
While our focus is physiology, as we have already seen, understanding physiological function requires an appreciation of various aspects of chemistry, biochemistry, physics, and other disciplines.
The purpose of this chapter is to introduce you to some of the basics of how cells carry out essential steps to obtain the energy needed for various activities and to generate the building blocks required for growth and development. Please appreciate that in many respects our discussions are rudimentary. However, this foundation will give you the tools and concepts to understand the roles and actions of each physiological system, and to excel in advanced courses in nutrition, reproduction, lactation, or other biological and animal-oriented courses.
