A comprehensive introduction to the structure and function of human anatomy and physiology. The course begins with an overview of body systems, homeostasis, and anatomical terminology, then covers the chemical, cellular, and tissue levels. Organ systems studied include integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, and sensory systems. Laboratory work parallels lecture content and emphasizes active exploration of anatomical structures and physiological processes through microscopy, anatomical models, dissection, and experimental activities.
