-- Students will describe ways in which internal and external structures, organ systems and body plans contribute to organisms being able to carry out life functions or processes (e.g., reproduction, response to stimuli, production and/or digestion of food, and production of energy, circulation, excretion, homeostasis)
How is the anatomy of body structures related to their physiology?
How are the structural levels organized in the human body?
What are the survival needs of the human body and by what mechanisms is homeostasis maintained?
What are the major anatomical reference terms and how are they used?
1. Introduction to human anatomy and physiology
2. Anatomical reference terms
3. Mechanisms of physiological feedback
Students will develop the ability to: 1. Define anatomy and physiology and their relationship
2. Name the levels of structural organization of the human body and how they relate
3. Briefly describe the functions of the organ systems and identify major organs in each system
4. List the functions that the human body must perform to maintain life
5. Define homeostasis and explain its importance
6. Define negative and positive feedback. Describe their roles in maintaining homeostasis
7. Describe the anatomical position verbally and explain why it is important
8. Use proper anatomical terminology to describe body directions, surfaces, and body planes
9. Locate major body cavities and list the chief organs in each cavity
1. Group activity for anatomical terminology clarification and review
1. Objective/subjective testing
2. class discussions
