A study of the structure and function of the human body. Examines major body systems from the perspective of how anatomical structure is integrated with physiological function. Starts with a detailed exploration of nervous tissue and the nervous system. The structural and functional relationships between the different components of the endocrine, respiratory, cardiovascular, immune, lymphatic, digestive, reproductive and excretory systems are then examined. Discusses developmental processes throughout. The laboratory component supports the lecture with a hands-on look at both the anatomical and physiological processes of the various systems above.
