The realistic portrayal of human beings and animals suggests a careful study of anatomical and natural features.

At about this time, Georges-Louis Leclerc de Buffon, also a native of Montbard, was preparing to bring out a multi-volume work on natural history, the Histoire naturelle, générale et particulière, and in 1742 he invited Daubenton to assist him by providing anatomical descriptions.

A sphincter is an anatomical structure, a circular muscle that normally maintains constriction of a natural body passage or orifice and which relaxes as required by normal physiological functioning.

In the first edition of the Lehrbuch der Naturphilosophie, which appeared in that and the following years, he sought to bring his different doctrines into mutual connection, and to " show that the mineral, vegetable and animal kingdoms are not to be arranged arbitrarily in accordance with single and isolated characters, but to be based upon the cardinal organs or anatomical systems, from which a firmly established number of classes would necessarily be evolved ; that each class, moreover, takes its starting-point from below, and consequently that all of them pass parallel to each other "; and that, " as in chemistry, where the combinations follow a definite numerical law, so also in anatomy the organs, in physiology the functions, and in natural history the classes, families, and even genera of minerals, plants, and animals present a similar arithmetical ratio.

Through random mutations and natural selection anatomical structures gradually became better-adapted to the every organism's respective habitat.

While the authors of that study ascribed the failure of corticosteroid injection to anatomical variations, it has not been clearly established that corticosteroid injection is better than placebo or that a symptom course of 12 to 18 months is any better than the natural course of the illness.

While learning the art of graining, marbleizing, gold plating and other techniques of decorative art in Räth's atelier, Carigiet spent a lot of his spare time filling volumes of sketchbooks with drawings of rural and urban scenes, farm animals and pets, anatomical studies of heads and beaks of the birds exhibited at Chur ’ s natural history museum, as well as with numerous caricatures of his acquaintances and family.

As a result of this experience, he turned his back on the world of commerce, and directed his training towards a study of natural history, anatomical drawing and lithography.

The first thing that confronted anyone entering the imposing central tower block was a large museum of natural history and anatomical specimens, reflecting the interests of many of the doctors, not the patients.

In 1865 he accepted the professorship of zoology at the Sorbonne, vacant through the death of Louis Pierre Gratiolet ; this post he left in 1868 for the chair of comparative anatomy at the Paris museum of natural history, the anatomical collections of which were greatly enriched by his exertions.

Albert Eulenburg ( 1914 ) noted a commonality across the paraphilias, using the terminology of his time, " All the forms of sexual perversion ... have one thing in common: their roots reach down into the matrix of natural and normal sex life ; there they are somehow closely connected with the feelings and expressions of our physiological erotism.

Pharmacology ( from Greek, pharmakon, " poison " in classic Greek ; " drug " in modern Greek ; and ,-logia " study of ", " knowledge of ") is the branch of medicine and biology concerned with the study of drug action, where a drug can be broadly defined as any man-made, natural, or endogenous ( within the cell ) molecule which exerts a biochemical and / or physiological effect on the cell, tissue, organ, or organism.

The theory as first proposed used comparitative physiological evidence and the natural habits of animals when running, indicating the likelihood of this activity as a successful hunting method.

In 1759, following a donation, another chair in economy was established, the Borgströmian professorship in " practical economy ", by which was meant the practical application of the natural sciences for economic purposes ( it eventually developed into a chair for physiological botany ).

' Modern biotechnology ' is defined in the Protocol to mean the application of in vitro nucleic acid techniques, or fusion of cells beyond the taxonomic family, that overcome natural physiological reproductive or recombination barriers and are not techniques used in traditional breeding and selection.

He calls this intricate layering “ stacking ” and points out that “ it is exactly the model God used in building nature .” The idea is not to slavishly imitate nature, but to model a natural ecosystem in all its diversity and interdependence, one where all the species “ fully express their physiological distinctiveness .”

AFM is a promising technique because it has the potential to image with nanometer resolution at room temperature and even under water or physiological buffer, conditions necessary for natural bilayer behavior.

Laromiguière's philosophy is a revolt against the extreme physiological psychology of the natural scientists, such as Cabanis.

In his first publication, he had also stressed the importance of the subject concentrating both vision and thought, referring to " the continued fixation of the mental and visual eye " as a means of engaging a natural physiological mechanism that was already hard-wired into each human being:

The goals of supported research include an improved understanding of drug action and mechanisms of anesthesia ; pharmacogenetics / pharmacogenomics and mechanisms underlying individual responses to drugs ; new methods and targets for drug discovery ; advances in natural products synthesis ; an enhanced understanding of biological catalysis ; a greater knowledge of metabolic regulation and fundamental physiological processes ; and the integration and application of basic physiological, pharmacological, and biochemical research to clinical issues in anesthesia, clinical pharmacology and trauma and burn injury.

Mondino utilized the differences between animal, spiritual, and natural members to classify distinct aspects of physiological activity.

Personal data are defined as " any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (" data subject "); an identifiable person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identification number or to one or more factors specific to his physical, physiological, mental, economic, cultural or social identity ;" ( art.

Wallace more speculatively argued that the bright colors and long tails of the peacock were not adaptive in any way, and that bright coloration could result from non-adaptive physiological development ( for example, the internal organs of animals, not being subject to a visual form of natural selection, come in a wide variety of bright colors ).

Currently, in biology, the term adaptation has a clear and concise meaning: a biological adaptation is an anatomic structure, a physiological process or a behavior's trait of an organism that has been selected by the natural evolution in such a way that this characteristic increase the probability of reproduction of an organism.

During his sophomore season, new head coach Jerry Claiborne moved Randy to defensive end, noting that he had the skill to be " one of the best five linemen in the U. S ." The move was a natural fit, as by his senior year, he was, as Claiborne put it, " as fast as some of the offensive backs I had coached.

During his third season ( 1977 ), White was moved to right defensive tackle, the same position formerly occupied by " Mr. Cowboy ", Bob Lilly, from 1961 through 1974, a move which in turn allowed veteran Larry Cole to return to his natural defensive end position.
