Physiology Evolutionary

Evolutionary physiology is a branch of physiology that studies the general patterns and features of the formation and improvement of body functions in the process of evolution. This section of physiology studies the process of evolutionary adaptation of an organism to a changing environment, as well as changes in the body caused by these changes.

Evolutionary physiology studies how organisms adapt to changes in the environment, including climate change, changes in food resources, changes in the competitive environment, etc. These changes can be either short-term or long-term.

In the process of evolutionary adaptation of an organism to the environment, a change in its physiological parameters occurs. For example, changes in body temperature can lead to changes in metabolic rate, which can affect the rate of growth and development of the body. Changes in metabolic rate can affect the body's ability to survive in different environments.

In addition, evolutionary physiology studies the changes that occur in the body as a result of mutations. Mutations can lead to changes in the structure and function of the body's organs and tissues, which can affect its ability to adapt to its environment.

Thus, evolutionary physiology plays an important role in understanding the processes of adaptation of organisms to changing environmental conditions. Studying this branch of physiology helps us understand how the body adapts to changes in its environment in order to survive and thrive.



The physiology of evolutionary anthropogenesis is a section that studies the general patterns of formation and evolution of human anatomical systems, the processes of their interaction and the mechanisms of their improvement. The study of these patterns in an evolutionary aspect is necessary to explain and understand the origin of man and the interaction of the biological mechanisms of his development with the environment.

The term “evolutionary-anthropogenic physiology” has different meanings for different disciplines, which leads to problems in defining concepts, terms and methods for assessing physiological characteristics in individual animal species and humans. In modern science, human evolution is the historical process of change over the life of many generations in the form and function of parts of the body under the influence of changing natural and social factors. In this regard, the evolution of anatomy and physiology is one of the most important issues not only in human biology, but also in all natural sciences in general.

The concept of “common ancestor” is the basis for explaining the evolutionary genetic component of the processes of organism formation. It means that each of us is equally a descendant of the common ancestor of the biological evolution of Homo sapiens. Thanks to this approach, it is possible to explain the physiological characteristics common to all representatives of our species, compare them with the characteristics of the human body with its own characteristics and adaptive functions, and understand what adaptive changes occur as a result of interaction with environmental conditions.
