BIOL& 242 - Human Anatomy & Physiology II

• Apply major terms, vocabulary, methods and concepts relevant to anatomy and physiology.
• Use anatomical and physiological vocabulary in oral and written communication.
• Identify the components of the major organ systems and describe their location in anatomical terms.
• Analyze the normal anatomy, functions, and mechanisms of the endocrine, reproductive, cardiovascular, immune, respiratory, and urinary systems and predict the effects of disease in those systems.
• Apply concepts and knowledge of terminology, structure and function related to each organ system.
• Analyze physiological measurements of organ systems to determine if they are within a healthy range or indicate an abnormality.
• Explain how the body systems function to maintain homeostasis and how imbalances of these systems lead to disease.
• Analyze fluids and tissues.
• Use discipline-specific laboratory materials, such as dissection tools, models, and compound microscopes, to analyze the structure of tissues and preserved specimens.

1. Systems of the human body - endocrine, reproductive, cardiovascular, respiratory, urinary, and immune.
2. Laboratory work may include mammalian dissections, online simulations, study of models, and microscopy.
