structure and function of the human body including the following systems: endocrine,
cardiovascular, immune, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive (including nutrition), urinary
(including fluid and electrolyte balance), and reproductive (including human development and
genetics). Emphasis is on interrelationships among systems and regulation of physiological
functions involved in maintaining homeostasis.
Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, students will:
1. Use anatomical terminology to identify and describe locations of major organs of each system covered.
2. Explain interrelationships among molecular, cellular, tissue, and organ functions in each system.
3. Describe the interdependency and interactions of the systems.
4. Explain contributions of organs and systems to the maintenance of homeostasis.
5. Identify causes and effects of homeostatic imbalances.
6. Describe modern technology and tools used to study anatomy and physiology.
