Cells are highly organised units which function as a group of similar cells, called tissue.

Physiology is the science of functional mechanisms of living organisms such as the processes that maintain the identity of a living body during its exchange with its surroundings, and the manner in which information is received from the surroundings and how the organism reacts to influence its environment.

This Introduction to Pharmacology post features a collection of videos that provide a more visual approach for student nurses, for study purposes…
Pharmacology is the study of drugs and their actions on the body.

Pharmacodynamics refers to the mechanisms of drug action…the study of how a drug affects our bodies.
The majority of drugs elicit a response depending on how they interact with a particular protein, which happens through a receptor protein embedded in the cell membrane, or inside the cell within the cytoplasm or in the nucleus.
Sometimes a drug acts as a ligand for a receptor.
A drug may be:
Drug Potency: the strength of a drug at a particular dosage or the amount of a drug required to produce a particular effect. Potency can also be described as the affinity of a drug for a receptor (high affinity = small amount of drug needed).
Drug Efficacy: maximum effect that can be achieved by a drug. Efficacy can also be described as the effect the drug has on the receptor and how well it acts as an agonist or an antagonist.
Special thanks to the creator of the featured videos on this post, specifically Youtube Channel Professor Dave Explains.
