Animal Physiology is a compulsory subject in the Biology degree, therefore its knowledge is essential in the comprehensive training of a Biology graduate. The contents of this subject try to explain the basic fundamentals of the functioning of an animal organism, trying to know all the activities (physical-chemical reactions) of the cells, tissues and organs (whose structure and constituent elements have already been studied previously) that make up the body of animals. Likewise, the subject deals in detail with how these systems serve the different animals to adapt to the environment. Because physiological processes are extremely complex, the study and teaching of physiology must be approached considering the different functional systems separately, taking into account, however, that each function represents a partial part of the functional unit that the system conforming an animal.
