Course Description

10-806-179 ADVANCED ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY ... this course is the second semester in a two-semester sequence that studies normal human anatomy and physiology using a body systems approach with emphasis on the interrelationships between form and function at the gross and microscopic levels of organization through learning and laboratory activities. The course continues examination of these topics: cellular metabolism; individual components of body systems; and homeostatic mechanisms and their relationship to fluid, electrolyte, acid-base balance and blood. The course also includes integration of genetics to human reproduction and development. (Prerequisite: 10-806-177, Gen Anatomy & Physiology with a "C" or better. Health programs may require a higher grade; refer to your plan for details.)
