Learning Outcomes

At the end of this course, the students;

  1. Recognize the shapes of symmetry in his body, which can make the definition of anatomy and physiology.
  2. Can explain the basic structure, organization and functions of human body from molecular level to organ systems.
  3. Can explain the basic structure and functions of the body's protection, support and movement systems.
  4. Can explain the basic structure and functions of body regulation and integration systems.
  5. Can explain the basic structure and functions of systems that provide body care.
  6. Can explain the basic structure and functions of reproductive, developmental and heritability systems which counts continuity.

Course DescriptionIn the course of Human Anatomy and Physiology, basic information on biochemistry and cell biology are taught, then basic information on homeostasis, cell membrane transitions, tissue types and body membranes are taught. Basic anatomy and basic physiology of the organ systems in the human body such as the skin, skeletal and muscular system, nervous system, circulatory system, respiratory system, digestive system and excretion systems are taught and reproductive system and inheritance issues are processed.
