The aim of this course is to teach the mechanisms underlying normal physiological functions in animals (nervous, muscular, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, endocrine, urinary, and reproductive systems) at the cellular, tissue, and system levels; to help students understand the principles of maintaining homeostasis; and to provide the foundational knowledge needed to relate physiological information to clinical applications.
This course covers the examination of physiological mechanisms in animals at the cellular, tissue, and system levels. Within the scope of the course, cell physiology, membrane transport mechanisms, excitable tissues (nerve and muscle physiology), the cardiovascular system, respiratory system, digestive system, endocrine system, urinary system, and reproductive system physiology are addressed. In addition, body fluids, acid–base balance, and homeostatic regulatory mechanisms are examined. By emphasizing physiological differences among species, theoretical knowledge is related to clinical applications.
