Честа грешка:
Learners often confuse "physiology" with "anatomy" and "psychology." "Physiology" is about how the body works, while "anatomy" is about the structure or parts of the body, and "psychology" is about the mind and behavior. Another mistake is treating it as a plural (*physiologies*) in general use; in this sense it is normally an uncountable field of study.
