This course continues the systematic approach to the study of the human body. The endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, urinary, metabolic, and reproductive systems will be studied with an emphasis on the medical application of these subjects. Microscopic slides for histology, models, and human cadavers are used in the lab to facilitate and reinforce learning.
Student Learning Outcomes:
Identify the anatomy of the endocrine organs, heart, major blood vessels, and structures of the lymphatic, respiratory, urinary and reproductive systems. Explain the functions of hormones in the body. Examine the components and functions of blood. Analyze the functions of the cardiovascular system. Explain the renal functions of water conservation and acid-base balance. Explain the basic principles of energy production, metabolism, and nutrition in the body. Identify different tissues of the body using microscopy.
