Course Objectives: | This course aims to give basic knowledge about normal functioning of human body from the cellular level to the system level. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; At the end of this course students be able to; o Identify basic functions of the cell and describe the term of homeostasis. o Describe the principals of substance transportation across the cell membrane. o Distinguish structures and functions of different muscle types. o Describe how the inhaled gases can be transported to the tissues. o Name the organs of the digestive system and identify their functions. o Order the events that take place during digestion and absorption of the food. o Describe the way of excretion of waste products from the body. o Make an inference that how the central control system will be acting in the case of thirst and/or hunger. o Name the effects of different hormones on food metabolism. |
This course provides basic information about the functions of the cell; mechanisms of substance transport throughout the cell membrane; muscle contraction mechanisms; functions of heart; blood circulation; gas transport to the tissues; organs of the digestive system and their functions; absorption and transmission of the digested foods via blood, central control of food and water intake; excretion of waste products produced during digestion of food. |
