'type' is your friend:

diamond at domain skynet:~(0)> type ls
ls is aliased to `ls -F --color=auto'
diamond at domain skynet:~(0)> type check
check is a function
check ()
{
    ps f -f -u ${1:-$LOGNAME}
}
diamond at domain skynet:~(0)> type ps
ps is /bin/ps
diamond at domain skynet:~(0)>

etc etc. It's pretty neat.
