This course is the second semester of Anatomy and Physiology for biology majors. This will examine the structure and function of the human body through investigation of the major organ systems. General physiological principles, especially mechanisms of homeostasis and structure-function relationships, will be emphasized for each system. The interactions among organ systems within a total body physiologic framework will be studied with particular emphasis being placed on homeostatic imbalances and disease states. This semester of the two-semester sequence covers the endocrine system, circulatory system, respiratory system, digestive system, metabolism and nutrition, urinary system and reproductive system.
