Human Physiology WB-BI-ANG-19
To acquaint students with knowledge covering basic issues in human physiology. Students will be introduced to information in general physiology (covering the body's internal environment, control of cell function, membrane transports, action potential propagation, neuromuscular junction and synapses, skeletal muscles, muscle tension, smooth muscle, autonomic nervous system). Topics in neurophysiology, cardiovascular and blood physiology, respiratory physiology, gastrointestinal physiology, renal physiology, and endocrine physiology will be covered in subsequent stages. Each section will also cover issues related to pathologies in the functioning of specific systems.
