An integrated presentation of the fundamental facts and concepts of human anatomy and physiology. Emphasis placed on the cellular basis of membrane excitability and hormone action, neurobiology, and musculoskeletal system and motor control. Laboratory includes histology, gross anatomy, and physiological experiments. Lite 4 semester hours Anatomy and Physiology II Bio. 232-2 . An introduction to the structural relationships and functional integration of major systems of the human body, with emphasis on reproductive, respiratory, renal, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and defense systems.
Laboratory includes histology, gross anatomy, and physiological experiments.
222 and Bio. This course focuses on physiological control systems within the cell and how they support organ level functions such as growth, excretion, digestion, cardio-respiratory activity, and neuroendocrine control in both vertebrates and invertebrates. The laboratory will allow hands-on study of the biochemical mechanisms underlying membrane and cell matrix function, second messenger signaling, and enzyme or ion channel modulation with regard to their regulation by genetic or environmental factors. 225, Bio. 336 and Chm. Study of the morphological changes that occur in the development of organisms and the molecular events that underlie these processes.
