Embryology Anatomy, in its most extended sense, is the science which deals with the structure of organized bodies. It is divided into departments according to its subjects; such as Human Anatomy; Comparative Anatomy, or the study of the structure of different animals and Vegetable Anatomy, comprehending the structure of plants. On examining the structure of an organized body, we find that it is made up Of members or organs, by means of which its functions are executed, such as the root stem and leaves of a plant, and the heart, brain, stomach and limbs of an animal and farther, that these organs are themselves made up Of certain constituent materials named tissues or textures, such as the cellular, woody, and vascular tissues of the vegetable, or the osseous, muscular, connective, vascular, nervous, and other tissues, which form the animal organs.
