BAS 5110 - Structure and Function I

Credit(s): 12.00

The structure and function of the human body at its many levels of organization, from molecule to organism. In this first course of a three-part series, we will learn about basic tissue types, as well as the biochemistry, cellular physiology, and development of several organ systems: the skin, the nervous system, the musculoskeletal system, the cardiovascular system, and the respiratory system. The principles of homeostasis will be explored, with an understanding that the interactions between organ systems are fundamental to the maintenance of health and the development of disease.
