Ayurvedic texts, except the Sushruta Samhita, do not deliberate much on gross anatomy. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayurveda Ayurveda] seems to be largely physiology-oriented bioscience where the central consideration is the physiological micro-structure. The knowledge of the understanding of gross anatomy of the body is inferred from the set of functions observed in the living body in different settings. The Ayurvedic biology bases its understanding of the function and functional anatomy of the living body on its quantized functions. According to the theory of ''srotovijnana'', the living body is a huge unified micro-macro channel system – ''Srotomayam hi shariram''. The channel potential is the basic nature of the body-mind system which is intimately connected on one side to the external world and with each molecule of the inner world on the other side. This science of dynamic interconnectedness is the unique feature of Ayurvedic biology. The concepts of ''tanmatra, panchamahabhuta, tridosha, saptadhatu, ojas, agni, ama'' and ''srotas'' together project a new holistic biology with quantum logic which is distinctly different from the materialistic reductionist biology based on Newtonian physics that is crudely organ-structure dominant, overemphasizing the narrow cause-effect relationship. In contrast, Ayurvedic biology adopts broad-based inclusive cause-effect phenomenon where cause and effect are a continuum and have no separate identity. This age-old idea conforms to the recent developments in modern physics pioneered by Albert Einstein.

Thus, the ''srotas'' biology, and concepts such as ''agni'' and ''saptadhatu'' in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayurveda Ayurveda] biology are distinctly different from conventional biology. The so described Ayurvedic biology conveniently extends to physiology on one hand and to pathophysiology and pharmacology on the other.
