| Learning Goals: |
By the end of the course, students should:• Understand the concept of homeostasis and identify the negative and positive feedback factors that regulate body system regulation;• Identify and use the anatomical terms to describe body sections, regions, and relative positions.• Use cell chemistry principles to explain sub-cellular metabolic reactions and membrane functions.• Describe a cell, its organelles, and their functions in mitosis, differentiation, and metabolism.• Compare the various types and sub-types of epithelial, connective, muscle and nerve tissues in organ functions.• Compare the roles of the hormones in regulating growth, metabolism and reproduction.• Discuss the mechanism that regulate the cardiovascular system and how mean arterial pressure is maintained in resting and exercise states;• Integrate the mechanism of the inflammatory mechanism with the actions of the humoral and cellular immune systems.• Specify the factors that regulate the process of respiration.• List the components of the urinary system and how they respond to hormones and neurons in regulating electrolytes, pH, and water volume in the blood.• Delineate the steps of the digestive process and how the endocrine and nervous systems regulate the timing of events that lead to nutritional uptake and fiber egestion. *The learning goals displayed here are those for one section of this course as offered in a recent semester, and are provided for the purpose of information only.
