General Human Anatomy
X104 (3 semester units in Integrative Biology)
This intensive introductory course focuses on the correlations between the structures and functions of the body's various systems. The functional anatomy of the human body is revealed by both gross and microscopic examination. Topics include the cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, nervous, and skeletomuscular systems, with an introduction to biomechanical principles. Disease pathologies affecting normal body function are discussed when appropriate. The course is especially useful as an introduction to human anatomy for students interested in the medical profession.
