Corequisites: GNUR 158L
The second in a two-part sequence, this course is designed to give students a detailed understanding of the structure of the major organs and systems of the human body from the cellular to the system level. It includes the endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems, as well as the concepts of development, metabolism, fluid and electrolyte balance, and acid-base balance. By the end of the course, students will be able to demonstrate understanding of the workings of the above systems from an anatomical and physiological viewpoint.
Outcomes: Use appropriate terminology to discuss anatomy and physiology; Identify anatomical structures and describe the complex interrelationships between structure and function; Explain how body systems work together to maintain homeostasis; Describe the general structure and function of endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems, as well as the concepts of development, metabolism, fluid and electrolyte balance, and acid-base balance and their interactions with each other; Recognize and apply patterns that unify, organize, and simplify the abundant detail of anatomy and physiology.
