BIO-317 Advanced Physiology I 3
Advanced Physiology explores the regulatory mechanisms involved in maintaining and controlling a homeostatic environment at the subcellular , cellular , and organismal levels . The course begins with a survey of the principles of regulatory and cell physiology and continues with an investigation of electrophysiology and the physiology of the human nervous , muscular , and endocrine systems . This course emphasizes an understanding of how the body functions under normal conditions ( in the absence of disease ). Deviations from normality associated with pathological conditions will be discussed to help demonstrate important concepts in human physiology . 3 lecture hours per week .
Take BIO-108 BIO-204 . ( Required , Previous ).
BIO-318 Advanced Physiology II 3
Advanced Physiology II is a continuation of the study of homeostatic regulatory mechanisms using selected organ systems , including the cardiovascular , respiratory , digestive , renal , reproductive , and immune systems . 3 lecture hours per week .
Take BIO-317 ; Minimum grade C . ( Required , Previous ).
