BIOL 308 Advanced Human Anatomy and Human Physiology II

3 Credit(s)

This is the second semester of a 2-semester advanced human anatomy and physiology course. The general goal of this 300-level series is to understand how the various organ systems work in the human body to sustain life. It is also the goal of this full-year course for students to appreciate how disruptions to homeostasis affect the whole organism, with a strong focus on the physiological underpinnings of disease. In this second semester, we will be discussing the anatomical and physiological integration of the organ systems to maintain homeostasis as well as some aspects of disease states. Course content will include endocrine and hormonal homeostatic control mechanisms, as well as cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, immune, reproductive systems. Students cannot receive credit for this course and BIOL 208 or BIOL 390 or BIOL 391.
