This course provides a comprehensive overview of human physiology, focusing on the functions and mechanisms of the human body. Students will explore the major systems that keep the body functioning: the nervous, muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, digestive, and endocrine systems. The course will delve into how these systems are regulated and how they interact to maintain homeostasis.
Through a combination of lectures, laboratory exercises, and interactive discussions, students will gain a solid understanding of the physiological principles that underlie human health and disease. Topics covered will include cellular physiology, tissue function, organ systems, and the physiological responses to various internal and external stimuli.
