The basic categories of physiology are human, animal, plant, bacterial and viral physiology. Each of them focuses on how the organism feed, grow, reproduce, and excrete by-products. However, the more complex an organism, the more avenues of research open to the physiologist. Human physiology, for instance, is concerned with the functioning of organs, like the heart and liver, and how the senses, such as sight and smell, work. In addition, There is another approach to develop branches of physiology, such as comparative physiology, ecological, evolutionary and developmental physiology. Also, there are techniques- based branches like molecular physiology and electrophysiology and professions and environments- based branches such as sports, space and marine physiology. Regards

The branches of exercise physiology include clinical exercise physiology, sports physiology, and biomechanics. Clinical exercise physiology focuses on using exercise to prevent or manage chronic diseases, while sports physiology focuses on enhancing athletic performance. Biomechanics examines the mechanical aspects of movement during exercise.
Branches of kinesiology include exercise physiology, biomechanics, motor learning and control, and sports psychology. These branches focus on studying different aspects of human movement, physical activity, and exercise science to improve performance, prevent injuries, and enhance overall well-being.
Exercise physiology focuses on the body's response to physical activity and exercise, including how different systems adapt and respond to training. Sport physiology, on the other hand, specifically applies these principles to athletic performance, such as enhancing strength, speed, and endurance to optimize sports performance. Essentially, exercise physiology is the broader science, while sport physiology is more specialized in its application to athletic performance.
Harvard University housed the first exercise physiology research laboratory, which was established by Dr. Dudley Allen Sargent in the late 1800s.
The American Society of Exercise Physiologists defines Exercise Physiology as the identification of physiological mechanisms underlying physical activity, the comprehensive delivery of treatment services concerned with the analysis, improvement, and maintenance of health and fitness, rehabilitation of heart disease and other chronic diseases and/or disabilities, and the professional guidance and counsel of athletes and others interested in athletics, sports training, and human adaptability to acute and chronic exercise. == ==
The branches of mammalogy include comparative anatomy, physiology, ecology, behavior, evolution, and conservation of mammals. Each branch focuses on different aspects of studying mammalian species to gain a comprehensive understanding of their biology and interactions with the environment.
Branches of kinesiology include exercise physiology, biomechanics, motor learning and control, and sports psychology. These branches focus on studying different aspects of human movement, physical activity, and exercise science to improve performance, prevent injuries, and enhance overall well-being.
exercise physiology is evolved from homeostatic (resting) conditions in the body. it is the acute responses and chronic adaptations that occur in the way the body functions during exercise. sport physiology is an extension of these observations that are used to improve sports performance; a more specialized area of exercise physiology

Physical health education typically consists of three main branches: exercise physiology, nutrition, and health promotion. Exercise physiology focuses on the body's response to physical activity and exercise, including cardiovascular and muscular adaptations. Nutrition involves the study of how food and nutrients impact health and performance. Health promotion encompasses strategies to improve overall well-being and prevent diseases through lifestyle changes and education.

This depends solely on what college you are attending. You will first want to make sure that they even offer exercise physiology. I am not sure that you can get a PhD in it though. If you are not in college yet, call the college you want to attend and ask about their program for exercise physiology and ask them about how you would go about majoring in it and what the highest level of education that they offer in exercise physiology would happen to be.

The term exercise physiology refers to the study of how the body responds and adapts to physical activity and exercise. It encompasses understanding how various physiological systems, such as cardiovascular, respiratory, and muscular systems, function during exercise, as well as how exercise impacts overall health and performance.

Percy Dawson, a professor at University of Southern California back in the early 1900's. He published the first textbook regarding exercise physiology.
You can get a masters in exercise science which leaves you open for a bachelors in nutrition.
There are many sub branches of science. These sub branches include anatomy, biology, botany, genetics, psychology, medicine, zoology, and physiology.
